Im Young, Eager to Move to New York.
Hi guys, seeking advice on experienced people who have had the balls to move lives.
I have got back from a holiday in New York 2 weeks ago, and i loved it so much, that I am planning on moving there before I'm 30. I am currently studying a Diploma in Media at college and i have full GCSE's. After my Media course I am planning on either taking an education in Graphic Design further, or going straight to getting an internship at somewhere in that field of work in the UK or the US.
I would love to know what to do to make it as easy as possible and make my dream of living in New York a reality, any help is appreciated
