I went to live and work in the us too when i was 20. was gutted to leave and spent the last week crying... My folks and best friend saw me off at the airport and it was the first time I saw my mum cry ( tears of joy I thnk). Was so sad to g but then on the plane excitement kicked in. Homesick for few weeks but then met some fab people.....then moved from Connecticut to south Carolina and had to start again....but all in all one of THE best experiences of my life....get over the irst few weeks and you will love every minute....enjoy
