no one is going to bother spending the time to answer a question that is immaterial to the known outcome as it stands.

Hi

Do you really want to move to usa.


I arrived here 29th July on a k1 visa and im heading back to UK 23rd sept.

Pennsylvania is nothing but trees without a view of rolling hills.

If you do think carefully which state you go too.????

So you gave this country less than two full months? Amazing!

Just curious if your fiancee is moving back to the UK with you, or did you guys just decide to break it off completely?

There are other states in the USA that don't have that scenery...you could try another state.

I don't think 6 weeks is long enough at all to get used to some place, but to each his own.

Rene

nearly as good as 2 weeks in Orlando and wanting to move to Florida!

I was thinking the same.
Hey is that dancing picture what I think it is?

Just what I was thinking. Aren't there 49 other states available, and a huge variety of scenery other than trees even in Pennsylvania, if you don't like those.

I admire your honesty, and although I do not know your circumstances, I feel if it is just a case of not being able to settle (as mentioned in another one of your posts) you really haven't given it enough time. And did you really go through all that trouble to immigrate just for inspiring scenery?

I have been reading the posts here for a few years, and I am amazed by how little people know about the culture shock of moving here. I am sure you can agree now, that living in the US is nothing like having a holiday here.

I remember reading a post about the "emotional stages" one goes through when they immigrate - from exited anticipation, to fear of the unknown, to being overwhelmed with the new realities faced while settling in, to the grief of leaving their old life behind. I am doing the piece a discredit, but I am damned if I can find it. Should definitely be a sticky.

My sister hit the nail on the head when she told me the Brits have far more in common culturally, with any non-English speaking EU country, than we do the US. It is that different. I am not saying it is bad (and neither was she) just completely different culturally. Most of us only get to experience this by living life beyond the more familiar and superficial aspects of the US, by being here a while - something you generally don't get to do on holiday.

Good luck in whatever you decide to do.

It's a great place to start a life in the US.

Especially if you like a 'Wild West' vibe.

That is not true at all! Are you in western PA? If so, travel east around Lancaster for example. I don't believe the Amish farm woods.

Would have been cheaper to do that on the VWP.

Oh yes he comes and goes every so often

That pun was intentional, right

I absolutely LOVE these threads.
