Hi Angel...

With your tacograph experience.... why not try Mexico?

Curiously, you might have a good chance in Canada. It's big on long-distance trucking so there might be an opening. Have a look at the Alberta Provincial Nominee Program and see if there is a fit. You'd like it in Calgary/Edmonton - cold but clean and safe.

ricardoblue was making a joke. A taco, as you doubtless know, is a common Mexican fast food. And of course the language isn't the same, as Mexicans speak Spanish.

Most countries maintain a list of needed technicians. The Australian immigration site is supposed to be very good. You can actually figure out whether you have enough points to immigrate. You never know what the shortages will be. They can be surprising. Australia at one time had a shortage of people who could restore antique furniture, now they have a shortage in the trades. Ten years or so ago, the US had a shortage of landscape architects, or so I've been told.

Hi Angelmagik,

As Synthia suggested you can look here at Is your occupation in demand? - Workers - Visas & Immigration
to see if your skillset is in demand for Australia.

Regards,
Karen

I doubt if your skills would be required in Canada as they dont have tachographs in their trucks, so I guess thats one country out of the equation.
But anyway the best of luck to you wherever you go
