2 years ago I tried to study in a town I am at right now but due to personal reasons/problems I had to cut off that education.
when I cancelled my work as an internship I went to the capital city of Greenland to give up everything but, I think 3 days after I arrived, I realized I couldn't do it so I started to look for a company that would accept me as an apprentice in the kitchen/canteen to continue my study. Luckily, because already the first day I applied to a canteen (believe it or not, governments canteen) they called me that I was accepted. So, next week after I got the news I started to work. Thanks to the canteen I finished as an apprentice in the kitchen/canteen last year that gave me an opportunity to get a higher education from my last education; nutritionist from a little bit lower nutritionist (makes sense? idk)
I still have about 5 months before I go back to the school where I will learn about food I am working with daily and after that I will have about 6 or 7 months until I finish my study.
So my goal is this, at the moment; before finishing study I will apply to embassy trying to become an immigrant. If I will be accepted then next year if not in the beginning of 2022 (wow that's far), I will travel for good.
I wish luck to myself on this path, I have right now.
Gift? A champagne and a knife when I finished my study last year.
I started in a new kitchen this year, February.
Good luck to all your plans in life. You can do it as long as you believe and work hard for it!
