Moving abroad

Crystaline, why'd you choose to move to Fargo? I'm just curious.

To be honest, I miss the english way of life. I miss the english sense of humour and the down to earth people.
Where I am right now is very superficial and snobby and this brings me down daily. I may try moving around somewhere in the country before going back to the UK (for my OH's sake), but here I feel ostracized because I am a foreigner and have found it difficult to place roots.

thats a shame, Florida is a lovely place to live , i think i found it easy as i went straight into college when i arrived over. My parents are moving down to Florida as well tomorrow

I got my green card last year on the Diversity Visa Lottery also known as DV1 i believe we'd been applying every year since it started and we decided that last 2004 would be the last time we bothered and we won that year

The boy lives here. Don't get me wrong, it's a beautiful area, and very cheap to live in. It is growing and there are many positive things that the Minnesota/North Dakota area has to offer, but it is not really for me.

I am happy for you the transition has been so easy I will probably try another area before I make any dramatic decisions, as I want to give the US a fair go. Probably a bigger city too! For my business it would definitely help me to be west coast san fransisco/LA area where I have spent some time, so that may be an option.

I've been to both i never really liked SF namely becuase of all the tramps and cold weather but thats my thought. LA is a very nice place to live i looked into a few college's there but decided i prefer florida

Thank you ever so much for the replies, they've been a lot of help. (That does sound sarcastic but I've said it now! - and I am genuine.)

She did mention she'd have to do some research. As was said post-holiday blues.

Many thanks!
