I'm having thoughts about moving to the US after my education. A good friend offered me a place in a team of developers in Chicago (I hope it'll still stand when i graduate, he said it would but who knows!)... It might be my chance to get experience in professional development and see where I can go from there.

What turns me off about moving to the other side of the globe is moving away from my friends. Sure hopefully I'll make friends in the US aswell, but what if I dont? What if all my colleagues hates swedes?

Anyone have any experience of this and can share some words of wisdom?
Permanently or temporarily?
