I have moved twice for Perl work. The first time I left a stable and well-paying bank job, where I was one of many, to a small firm where I was the whole IT department. 3 years later, I moved to the Netherlands for a Perl job.

No matter where you go, just start talking to businesses in the area and find out if you can make things to ease their pain. That kind of networking can be difficult for some of us tech types, but sometimes you just have to cowboy up.

What would the Perl Programmer equivalent be to 'Cowboy Up'?
