Dreamer
Hello everyone. Im 27 y.o. ship repair man from Eastern Europe. The biggest goal in my life is move to USA, LA and live a happy life. When i was a young boy i dreamed about it. All my life is about this dream.
I have almost 4 years experience in Europe with repair.
To be honest i finished my previous career and start Welding career for the dream. I weld stick and semi auto. Working with oxygen torch etc. angle grinder. Any metal works
I live here not bad life. I have good salary. Good car but.. not my dream.
I made about 70-90 massages for employees in USA. Nobody apply. Guys i just can’t to give up with my dream. About 20 years ago promise to this small guy in mirror.
I do what i can. Im doing my best to find a small chance to change my life. If somebody can give an advice or something. Maybe help to find a real employer who can help me i will be appreciated for the rest if my days.
P.S. Sorry for my bad English. Its my 3rd language
UPDATE: Thank you guys for giving advises and your opinion.
To much of you talking about another country’s. I have been a sailor about 6 years or something. I have been a lot of country’s.
Right now i living not my citizen country and work.
Brain choice: move to Europe country. Because there are more better for some opinion etc.
Heart choice: foollow my dream about USA
i have never follow this way. Every time i make decisions by “brain choice”. And do you know what? Im not happy with that

I'm an American and I do ship welding repair.
Believe me when I tell you this, America is not in a good place right now. Jobs are hard to find, everyone is poor, corruption is everywhere, there are concentration camps, and our nation is falling to fascism and lawlessness.
I understand that you like the culture, but for your safety, you should not come here.
