yes, if u can communicate easily, you know that design requires good communication with customers and your coworkers. Also if u know the culture of the European country you work in. A good knowledge of their culture will help u come up with appropriate ideas for designs. Culture is a key-factor in design. I know a designer in Africa (36 yrs old) who has just won a contract to design a car for a Japanese car maker! So please keep confident, aim high and start small! And be persevering : the journey of a 1000-mile starts with a step (Lao Zi)

No, if you believe you are the best so you can do it! ;) jiayou
