Is your SIL a woman of colour? When she moved to the UK, did she have to pursue further studies to get a job in the UK? I feel super intimidated about not having a bachelor's degree.

Omg omg I'm so scared of moving to join my partner in Scandinavia because I'm a WOC in a country where my race is hyper privileged and have zero experience being a racial minority.

I read research studies and blogs about moving to Scandinavia and feel extremely daunted about moving and losing all my independence. Terrified I will develop PTSD symptoms, be unable to work, terrified about learning to drive and I struggle so much with learning that Scandinavian language already despite telling myself "OMG QM, you speak Chinese!!"
