English guy - help needed

<p>Hey</p>

<p>I'm 21 from Leeds in England, coming over to California for university but travelling throughout the summer around C.A first with my mate. Just wondering are there a lot of English at uni here or will I be a minority? Reckon it's easy to fit in etc? Also what is the nightlife like in C.A and where are the best places to go?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>I wouldn’t say there are tons, but you shouldn’t have any trouble making friends. The whole accent thing is a great conversation starter. </p>

<p>You might want to specify what city in CA you’re interested in–it’s a big state.</p>

<p>There would be a fair few if you were going to New England but in California there are not that many. You will start off as “The English Guy” for a while but that is not a bad thing :slight_smile: of all the English speaking nations England has by far the best banter.</p>

<p>One thing to warn you about, the less informed Americans may ask why do you not have a “British Accent”? Americans think that RP is “a British Accent.” And you being from Leeds I assume that you have a more northern accent.</p>

<p>Everybody loves people with accents. Especially the ones that have a good grasp of English. </p>

<p>= Everybody loves Brits/Aussies</p>
