   i dunno man. i heard its harder to get jobs out west.
   
   but then there seem to be quite a few people on this forum going that way.
   
   im stayin east cause ive heard good stories about New Jersey, Boston and NYC. but im opting for South Carolina. heard good stories about it too.
   
   go to www.j1summer.com and have a look at the guides section. there are guides to just about every option on both east and west. see what u think.
   
   best of luck sir.

   Go to the West Coast, generally better weather, less chance of thunder storms and heavy rain and fog. Californian babes are hot :D

   less chance of being surrounded by every dublin knacker and rugger bugger in chicago - while bein hot, sunny, beachs, WARM water and a really friendly city - no hassles with jobs or accom either
