Here are some ways I made friends:
- Volunteering
- Joining a book group
- I also joined several Yahoo groups
I met people through all these sources!

I want to meet more fellow British people, so I can feel more at home. How would I do that?

Hello FishNChipsGirl, You could have a look at the British expats Network in San Francisco.
Hope this helps!

I have a plan to live in South California. Where do you live and from where are you coming from?聽 Please share with me how was your first year being expatriate and live your life there. I will stay for long period, so will try to find a job also, I know it will not so easy but at least I try. I will be glad if you like to reply my message.

Regards
Bewithyou

Hello bewithyou, welcome to 禁漫天堂
However, you're a bit here; so may I suggest you to start a new topic in the forum?
You might also want to check the the Guide of life in USA which contains a lot of useful information for your project.
Cheers
Arlette
