Hey guys,
so this is something I've been thinking about for a while and it could be one of those defining decisions I'll make in my life so it's with great optimism I'm considering moving to the US of A, joining a lot of you guys and expanding my horizons...
so with that said, I'll just break bottom line right off the bat; is there anyone here who could help me out with finding somewhere to live or a place to work in your home state?
As exciting as it sounds going there with barely any money and no contacts, I think that'll just end up with me like it did for my friend (homeless for three months, painting sidewalks in LA for a living) so I need some kind of plan or at least a friendly face when I get there...
I've never been to the states so I don't really know what my options are but I've heard good things (music and culture-wise) about Philly, SF, Chicago... NY? I really don't know for sure but I'm hoping this post could help me in my decision making, I just know that I don't want this cold ass weather we right now over in scandinavia :P
The reason I'm even considering moving is simple; there's practically no electronic music scene in Sweden and imo, people are overall reluctant to anything that's not guitars - I think a fresh start in a new city with a vibrant culture scene and friends who can musically inspire me is exactly what I need. As it is right now I'm basically plucking along alone in my 18 square meter apt (imperial system will come later) and while I'm trying to find people to brainstorm and work with, I think it's too much of an uphill battle to stay in this city.
So if anyone's read this far, would someone want to help a lone Swede out in what I see as "everything I've ever seen on TV"-land?
