I'm 21 and plan on moving from Australia to the Valley next year to start on my passionate life journey. So this advice is really interesting to me! Especially specific advice regarding working in this general field in the Valley or California would be fantastic. Thanks!

What's your life journey that begins in .au?

Don't be so shy - you'll regret it later. Just do it.
