State of the Union

So. Facts re: emigration to NYC:

• I'm young, I'm fairly presentable, I'm adaptable, I'm bilingual, I have a European high school diploma. I have a good chance of finding a decent job.
• It is quite possibly cheaper to have my stuff shipped over there, so I don't have to worry about buying furniture. (Will, however, need new tv and video. But that's okay.)
• While living inside the city is expensive, the suburbs are supposedly not that expensive. It's not like I've not been commuting all my life anyway.
• If worst comes to worst, there are a number of people in/near NYC I could crash with.
• I will need to contact the US embassy this week to find out how soon I would be able to get a visa.
• I will need to cut down on all expenses and save money. Lots.
• I am quite possibly insane. AUGUST?

you can sell your stuff and rent a furnished apartment in the 'burbs (Brooklyn or Queens or the Bronx are the easiest to commute via subway to). Just another variable to consider....

insane? no, I doubt it. altho things are different between you and I and where I moved from/to, but I found an apartment mid- November and moved a month later - had my horse shipped and everything!
