I'm trying to build a decent portfolio to land into a permanent job in the future. I'm thinking about going abroad to find a foreign job for me to gain experience. Probably during my stay there, I might also think about migrating and staying there for good if the opportunity presents itself. But, I don't want to think that far ahead just yet. Can anyone give me some suggestions and advice on what I should do and where to head? Any foreign country would do and any recommended job for me to take while I'm there. It can be anything!

Hi and welcome to the forum

I would pick 4 countries that may interest you and do some serious research on them regarding job possibilities for you, visa requirements, cost of living, climate, hospitals and medicines.

Your age would be may be a negative on the work front and you need a good area of expertise in your chosen profession. Jobs for expats are usually on a contract basis so you would need to consider this and have savings aside for eventualities.

Ease of transferring money in and out.

Climate may affect your health if you are used to colder climes.

Language needs to be taken into account too.

Law and order, is the country reasonably safe.

Does the country have your Embassy or Consulate there.

Plenty to think about.
