I came to Los Angeles for uni from Japan, and I've been loving EVERY moment of it! I have lived in Downtown L.A., Mid-city/Hollywood area, and now in the suburbs of L.A. I absolutely love the heat (but dry heat) and can't stand the cold, so I wouldn't want to move from CA to the east coast, where my sisters live . I love the delicious foods and the fact that you can get all kinds of food from all over the world -- I've always lived in cities, so variety of cultures is really important to me. I love the laid-back style, the ocean (a must for me!), the friendly people. I'm not sure if you mean parts other than L.A., but I also love San Francisco and the surrounding Bay Area! I used to go there every summer before starting uni.
