A New Home over seas?

[Guest Entity]

Ok, so to break off from the past Canada topic...

 

 

i am an American citizen (please don't hold that against me)

i am looking to move out of America in the future.

i do not speak a foriegn language, and have no college education.

 

i have no specific trained skill but I have worked many different jobs and am rarely without work. Retail, restaurants, computers, art galleries, catering services, personal assistantant to artists / musicians, and even minor watch repair are all in my past.

 

my 2 major considerations are trance and employment.

 

trying to find a place where i could get a job and perhaps aim towards citizenship, and ofcourse have good trance. A pleasent girl is always nice as well, but hey, one step at a time.

 

Canada is close and seems freindly + i hear herb is practicly leagal in B.C.

Austrailia is what gets my attention the most though. I would love to kow what it takes to get employment there.

 

Anyone here move from America to another country?

 

Any suggestions or information on employment over seas is helpfull.

i will take any job to start.

 

Keep in mind i am not wealthy and do not have a family to fall back on. This is not a luxurious trip i plan to go on. i am looking for a place to continue working on my music, work hard, and enjoy life.

 

Any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated.

Be carefull what you recomend though,

i might take you up on it :~)

mmmm how about California

 

 

 

In which state do you live? I think US may still offer you what you're looking for and it's just your town or state that don't satisfy your apetite. At least thet's the impression I get.

 

Keep in mind there is an army of people all over the world waiting in line for a chance to live in US and they would love to be in your shoes. This is not for no reason.

 

 

How about New Orleans? I don't know about Trance scene over there but the place is beatiful, pople smile, play music and dance on the streets, a lot of French creole culture. I bet there's some kind of electronic music scene there. Maybe you can start Trance movement if there isn't one.

 

That's just one example of what you will leave behind if you go elsewhere. Not to mention all the hussles of obtaining the necessary visas, work permits etc.

 

 

 

All this, of course, is just my opinion and YOU should make decision and do what will make you happy.

 

 

Good luck!

I've thought of moving to another country. But then I realize that I'm trying to escape myself somehow, and that's not possible. You take yourself wherever you go. I agree that America has a ton of possibilities. There are several gems of cities that have yet to be overwhelmed by the popular-minded masses. For example, I highly recommend looking into Asheville, North Carolina. It's got a small trance scene, it's full of hippies and craftspeople, local music and culture, tons of bars and cafes, surrounded by mountains and nature for hiking, camping, etc., and employment seems to be available. Also take a look at Burlington, Vermont. But if you have to get out of the states, and want something a little more foreign and interesting with a good trance scene, but perhaps more difficult logistically, I'd aim for Montreal. Good luck.

for you to get a work visa in most countries is going to be hard. I would consider these cities in North America:

San Fran (has one of the best trance scenes in the whole world)

Toronto (beautiful city, great place to live, very nice trance-wise)

New York (jobs might be scarce there, up there because Trance is one of your main concerns)

Chicago (my favorite city in America, shouldn't be too hard to find a job, but no trance whatsoever)

Vancouver (haven't been but I heard that its really nice plus they have good parties sometimes)

i don't think that it is that hard to get a working permit as a us citizen. it would be much harder if you came from from africa or eastern europe.

actually in many countries if you find employment and have a contract you can pretty easily obtain a working visa afterwards...this applies to most of EU, and I am almost sure it applies to Australia also. it is generally easier to get such a visa for jobs that require more qualifications....just contact the embassies and ask them for the precise regulations and procedures...
