    Journal Article, Paper

    The article analyzes the experiences of highly educated Croatian women who migrated to different European countries after Croatia’s accession to the European Union in 2013, emphasizing their work and non-work/everyday experiences in the context of the economic and social dimensions of integration. The research conducted with a qualitative methodology shows that most female narrators’ work and everyday experiences are predominately satisfactory, largely overlapping, and indicate a relatively high degree of economic and social integration of highly educated migrant women in the receiving countries. Finding a job in their profession enables them to achieve a better standard of living, and they consider working conditions better than in Croatia. Everyday experiences indicate a satisfactory amount of free time and satisfaction with the quality of life. The interlocutor’s approach to the material and non-material aspects of life shows elements of “good living” and “personal prosperity,” as well as subjective well-being and integration.
