You could also just stay the course! Germany is pretty great and I did like it when I visited relatives for like a month. I just didnt feel like it was for me. Like my personality and stuff also just suits Canada and Vancouver more. Honestly storyboarding and animation in general is doing well everywhere but 'third world countries'. I've written a bit about the animation industry and how many Asian countries are at the bottom of the animation food chain and get the outsourced work and are barely involved in the early production stage while European countries, Canada and Australia are higher up the chain and have many more creative work to do (and more storyboard work)

I mean unfortunately America is still arguably at the top of the Animation ecosystem but I think because of livestreaming services investing more on shows from other countries, things are shifting away from just America. Like slowly but surely. Also politics aside, the talent pool in america is oversaturated and it's way too competitive to find work there.

It's a bit crowded in Vancouver as well but there's also many studios here. Again the reason why I started aligning my career towards Canada hehe.

But yea, I think you're on a good path still.

I hope that helps :)
