hey guys,
im from germany and as in the summary described, I want to do a roadtrip in the States from the beginning of march until end of july. I am applying for the B2-Visa, which shouldnt be really hard to get for me, i guess; i have enough money, im 24 years old, some friends invite me for their graduation parties, i have a job contract, which starts in august, my parents will support me and so on.
But however, i have some questions.
I read in most of the blogs, communities e.g. that it should be really hard buying a car, without any permanent resident and without an merican drivers licence. Moreover, the crucial problem should be getting an insurance policy for the car. Is it true? My plan is buying a car in NYC and sell the car in seattle. Do u see no chance to get an insurance or are there some nice tricks in order getting this?
Another question is according work: Basically i dont have the permission to work with my B2-Visa, but however, i heard there should be a lot of "black jobs", in other words illegal ones, where the companies arent interested to see a permission? Do u see a chance getting such kind of jobs?
Furthermore, im not relly sure, how easy it is getting in contact with other travellers on my way, i mean, in contrast to australia, the states are not the typical country where most of the backpacker are sleeping in hostels and come together in order making some plans together and so on, is it right or am i totally wrong? Is there a special opporunity getting in contact as fast as possible and make some friends abroad?
Last but not least, i dont really have exactly plans while travelling around. Im the kind of guy, who takes it as it comes, and dont care about plans and this stuff. Its my mentality and i learned in the past, that "comin around" without a schedule, timetable and exactly plan is the best way getting in contact with many unpredictable moments, which are the most valuable experiences in my point of view.
Nevertheless, do u have any reccomndations, what kind of place i should have seen during my trip?
Thank you very much for your replies in advance.
Best regards,
Jonas
