Hi all,

Newbie on the USA forum? Don’t know how to start?

This thread is for you ;)

We invite you to introduce yourself on this topic, to share with us your expat story if you are already living in the country, or to tell us more on your expat projects in the USA if you are planning to move there.

It will enable us to help you better but above all to wish you a warm welcome.

Welcome on board!

Sweet and tender 2018 to all of you!!
My name is Fatuma. I am 44years old, single, no children. I'm living and working in Brussels for a regional administration. I currently work as an administrative assistant. I have one bachelor degree in Law and one bachelor degree in public relations. In the past I worked as a PR consultant and journalist. I want to relocate to Phoenix, Arizona as soon as I find a job there. I plan to visit Phoenix around the end of 2018 - beginning of 2019. In the meantime I'm also searching for a job that would send me anywhere in the USA. I'm open to do any kind of jobs (administrative or manual) once in the US and after five years at the most retrain as a lawyer there.

Meloosa

Hi, I just signed up.
I am Melvin, a Singapore citizen but also a US permanent resident. I've been in the US since 1992; when I first went off to college in Tempe, AZ (ASU), then to Miami, FL for my MBA (FIU) and finally settled in North Carolina where I am working full-time now.

The reason for signing up is to help with advice for anyone hoping to move to the US for school or work, and specifically help with challenges faced by Singaporean students hoping to go to US colleges or professionals looking to begin their careers in America.

Hi everyone, my name is Gwyn and I'm looking at buying a small furniture restoration business in Colorado Springs. I love the outdoor life (hiking, off orad motorcycle riding, snow boarding, fishing etc) and working with my hands and after many visits to the area,  this seems the ideal location to move to.

If anyone has any advice on the E2 business plan (samples ideally) I'd be very grateful.

Many thanks
Gwyn

Hi, I'm Jan.
I am an entrepreneur and IT consultant from Norway who is looking to move to USA - San Diego, LA, Las Vegas or Henderson, NV. I'd like to get in touch with people who have made the move to USA on an H1B visa or EB5 or L1 or E2 visa and done so with a limited budget.

Hi, I moved (escaped) from the United States to Puerto Rico (ok still a US Territory).  I am trying to set up a business and live a healthy life.

My friends call me a contrarian, having discovered most things in life are the opposite of what we are told.  :)

I enjoy learning other cultures and other ways of doing things.

Any way I can assist, please let me know!
