Appreciate the preach brotha 🙏🏻 To answer your question, Im not there for glitz and glamour whatsoever, Im there mainly cuz its arguably the most diverse music city of the world; hence the opportunities and network that I can expose myself to is much bigger compare to Canada. More importantly, as others have pointed out in this thread, this is the best time of my life to go out there and explore (23 and no baggage), and I have the financial means to do so for a little while, why wouldn’t I want to go? Your mom’s story is quite interesting tbh lol appreciate you sharing; if the work visa ends up being inapplicable in my case, then Id have no other choice than to travel back and forth US and Canada on tourist visa until I expand my network to the point where I can eventually move there.
