Just two small points: DLH, Deutsche Lufhansa means [B]NOT[B] that you have to be German. You can apply if you speak German on a certain level. I met alot of people around the world who do that. You also need a JAR License to start your endeavour. Your Passport does not count, just the right to live and work within the EU. The same counts for USA, they do not care where you come from as long as you have either a Green Card or a Work permitt/permanent resident and the FAA license.
I have been a Expat for over 15 years and I expirienced both, open arms and total fear, just depends where you are and if you proove yourself then the objection will dissapear. Therefore you need to be moderate, flexible, open minded, humble and......... proud to be part of the Team.
Fly safe and land happy
