Hello,

Me and my boyfriend have spent some time travelling the West Coast and would love to return and work for 6-12 months. We are thinking either California (LA?) or otherwise trying somewhere like Miami.

My boyfriend is a plumber and I am a legal secretary but we have no idea where we start looking for jobs in America, where to live, cost of living - would we have to rent or could we get a mortgage? How do we apply for visas and what sort of visa would we need?

So many questions and not the first idea of where to start looking!!

Any advice would be brill!!
