I've seen good results for people in Eastern Europe through personal connections, though admittedly none facing direct discrimination. Don't give up, though, I know a bunch of really nice people from that area of the world. They do exist and I'm optimistic you can find some of them if you keep looking | |

removed personal anecdote that the problem the OP is facing is not real.

Yes, OP could face discrimination anywhere in the world, but it's much more likely in some places. So if OP is going somewhere that it is more likely, then it's entirely sensible of them to have a think about it now. They aren't saying "woe is me" they are looking for practical steps to mitigate problems. | |
