One can wonder if the Czech culture culture is close to their own, what the standard of living is like, and if they will be economically successful in making such a move. Well there are more variables involved in your individual situation than just what the city has laid out for you. Allow VisaForce to shed some light on this process from the perspective of our cofounder who migrated to Czech Republic from the USA.

“I didn’t have a lot of prospects when I came to Czech Republic. I was certainly not qualified for much and this was all very intimidating. I signed up for a TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) course really not knowing what to expect.

What I learned after the course is what I lacked in accreditation, I made up for in confidence and personality. It is a very different lifestyle than anything I have experienced in the USA. I have found that creativity and networking works wonders in Czech Republic while the USA focuses more on merit and connections. I came here for one year and since then have made a great life for myself.”
