What are the pros and cons of each? I’ve seen slow paced (non hustle) countries being romanticized , but personally I struggle in such places.

What are your thoughts? Where are you now and is it slow/fast paced? What do you like there?

    I worked at a hostel.

    I don’t know anything about film related jobs in Croatia so I can’t comment about that.

    Overall I think it’s a good place to raise a kid since it’s incredibly safe and kids are given much more freedom by parents than is typical in the US. The lack of job prospects is a legitimate worry and the country has been hit by two brain drains (the civil war and joining the Schengen zone). I assume your daughter is also a dual citizen so she’d be able to move to the US or anywhere in the EU for work so she’d have a lot of good options. I guess the big question (it’s also the one my wife and I are asking ourselves a lot as her parents live in Croatia) is are you okay raising a kid knowing they likely will have to leave their home country to go abroad for work.
