I really want to say “don’t come here. There are too many of us already and not enough jobs.” But I did the exact same and never looked back. It’s a great move. Austin is awesome and nyc still exists to visit. Learn UX writing, wire-framing, and know that because of Austin’s tech-y-ness, in-house jobs are usually more available over agencies. Good luck!

My home country offers free health care, education, affordable living etc and now i’m in the US the only way I think I’ll ever catch up for retirement is by making Partner salary one day but still living like I’m on a Manager salary to save.

Plus on a visa we cannot have other income. This is going to be a long game of catch up.

Thanks in advance!
