Ok here's my take on life in US, Canada and Europe after having lived in both the places. First you need to find out what your goal in life is. If it is money and career, then it is easier to earn that in US than in Europe. If it is quality of life, Europe is the place. Life in US can be very boring after a while. US is not filled with cities like New York. There are many backward little towns in US that basically have nothing to do during free time. They have no social life, not even sidewalk on the roads to sometimes go on a walk. They really make your life dull. Money does not make you happy and that too if you only get 2 weeks of vacation time to really do what you love. Besides working in Europe can reward with opportunities to travel around and experience a lot of history, culture and beautiful places. And the food in Europe is way better than in US, unless you are that kind of nepali who will only eat yellow curried dishes wherever you go. It could be true that Americans are easier to be approached than Europeans, but Europeans tend to be better friends that Americans. They tend to be deeper, cultured and less ignorant than Americans. So really it all depends on what you want. If you want money and a dull life, head to US. If you want a quality life, and want to enjoy simple pleasures in life, head to Europe. Remember, there are larger percentage of Americans on anti-depressant than Europeans. I guess all that money will certainly buy you all those medications.
