xxlea Posted May 14 Report Share Posted May 14 The possibility to get up and move is very tempting,actually I have that opportunity now. But I have far too many responsibilities to drop everything and hop on a plane.I've always wanted to take a year off from reality, move to a different country and live there until I run out of money. Spain, Brazil, Australia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teknojunkee Posted May 14 Report Share Posted May 14 I basically live 2 places. long Island during school and Portugal for the summer months. Im not gonna get to go back to portugal for a while. Just like anyother home i have freinds, family, house, car, everything there. Its really hard when you've been living in 2 places. But i just cant afford the trips, food, and all that crap anymore. I have to get myself situated over here. Time to think about the future. Most people wannt get away and just leave, i just wanna go home.

(just because of the climate). i miss europe when i'm in the US. however a new start is more difficult than one can imagine. and i think we all have limited # of new starts we can deal with in our life.

roha3000 Posted May 15 Report Share Posted May 15 After visiting LA last summer, I thought long and hard about moving there. The weather alone in LA in unbelievable. You can barbecue in your backyard 365 days a year. If you think the club scene in NY is good, you have no clue. LA is ridiculous. The clubs out there put the ones in NY to shame. Way more DJ talent goes to LA from Europe as well, probably because they like the weather and the women out there better. Yes, the women are gorgeous. Not to say there aren't hot women in NY, but in LA they are always scantily dressed. Lotta airheads out there though. Tell them you are a director and you are in .The only problem with LA is you really have to know people. I went with a friend who lives there 4 months a year so he was very well connected out there. We had no problems getting in anywhere. But starting from scratch out there definitely seems intimidating. One day I will move out there. That I am sure of. But I don't think I could do it alone. I would need to be moving with friends I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think you should wait until your 21. (which has nothing to do with maturity level. Its all about being legal. Its just MUCH easier.)Pete- *AHEM* *bestroommateintheworld *cough* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gogoamy Posted May 15 Report Share Posted May 15 Originally posted by joeg from where?how'd it go?do you regret it?(elaborate or something, cp is SUCKING today, content-wise) In September I moved from Cleveland, Ohio to NYC. I had been wanting to do it for a year, it took lots of planning. I don't regret moving here, however I do regret some of the decisions made here. And even though being here is something I wanted so badly, I still dream of just getting up and starting over some place else, again. Not that I don't like it here, but...change is good;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeg Posted May 15 Author Report Share Posted May 15 yeah... i'm not saying i'm going anywhere or anything...but the thought did pass through my mind... and I have nothing holding me here right now... I'm ready for a job change... and I can sell my other car and have money to start anew...I doubt i'll be so unbound in the future...anyone else? this has flourished into quite an interesting thread...
