Question

thanks

Answer 1

LA is a tought city to live in. Lots of expenses. Lots of driving around. Lots of stress. Lots of hustling to make it.

A lot of people come here for the sunshine and the beach.... but you live in Western Aus. You have tons of that down there.

Answer 2

im doing the same =]

Answer 3

i think that california is a good place to live.

Answer 4

of course, just come prepared to work and earn what you get...nothing (well for most of us) is given, we work hard for what we have....good luck!

Answer 5

It's a plan but will need some work.

You can't just move here without a visa. To get a visa you need to find a job with an employer willing to sponsor you. To get the job you need to have a good degree and at least 2 years experience in your field.

If you are sure America is what you want then start working on yout long term plan now. Work hard at school and get the best marks you can so you can get into Uni. At Uni work hard and concentrate on a subject that you can transfer to America. Engineering, computing, architecture or medicine would be good. Law would be specific to Australia and wouldn't be so good for you.

When you are looking for work in Australia try to work with International Corporations that have offices over here.

It's a long way away but you could be here at 25 and have a great lifetime ahead of you.

Good Luck
