OP - I think you are dealing with "analysis paralysis" here. You are in the EU while most, if not all, the posters in this discussion, are in North America. So the advice they give may not be totally relevant to your individual circumstances. You should talk to folks in your own country. Have a set of focused questions so you don't sound like someone who has no idea of what s/he wants to do.
I live in the US. I have a couple of US engineering degrees (Mech. Engr) and have worked in Africa and Europe. But that was through an international organization that is present in a lot of countries. That organization took care of all the visas/work permits which is a huge hassle when you are a non-native of the country you're working in.
Also, earlier in this thread there was discussion about what one poster calls a "catch-22". This myth has been thoroughly debunked so pay no attention to it - although reading through the posts can be entertaining.
