fixed wing going to helicopters

Hi Guys,

i am a commercial fixed wing pilot, 2000 hrs total time with 1500 on jets.

I fall in love after a trip on Ecureil, I am thinking about becoming a commercial helicopter pilot:

My helicopter Cpl will be with IFR and turbine included, since I have by regulations credits for my experience.

Would I be then marketable with my fixed wing experience or it counts less then nothing? I am 35 , too old?

Any sujjestion about school in Europe or U.S? I heard very well about H.A.I in US, is that really good?

Other sujjestions for me? Everything is appreciated

Thanks for help
Cheers
