Arrived!
Hi all!
So after 4years 3months of travelling between the UK and the USA I have finally arrived in the USA on my K-1 Visa. Arriving was breeze I have never gotten through immigration so fast!
We are planning to get married ASAP and get onto the AOS stage. Thank you BE for being a great resource so far and I fully intend to keep on reading here, hopefully I can help out with my experiences.
It is all so daunting, but exciting. Thankfully I have a to do list so long I dont have time to be too scared

Re: Arrived!
4 years and 3 months long distance? Wow 
We managed just over 2 years, which thankfully will be coming to an end in just over two weeks 
I hope everything goes well for you both - and I'm jealous that you can get married!

This just made me realize that my sister and her husband have now been apart for over four! 
I have absolutely no idea how (or indeed why) they do it....

Re: Arrived!
Thank you all for your replies!
Sorry about the confusion of who posted. My fiancee Laura made the account which I (James) duly hyjacked to post haha.
4 years and 3 months was a long time but was fully worth it - it was the weirdiest feeling when I arrived at the airport knowing I didnt have to fear going back in 2weeks time!!
Happy Thanks Giving!!
James
