Meet Chloe Farnworth from Herefordshire who moved to LA 9 months ago to pursue acting.
Was there a particular reason you chose LA?
Well LA has so much to offer. I find it an incredible and fascinating city to live in. It’s a bit like being on a exciting roller coaster each day! And having grown up in the countryside and spending the last six years in London, Los Angeles offers this amazing city life yet in the country side too, Which I LOVE….
What one thing do you miss from home?
There are a lot of things I miss from the UK and trying to chose just one is pretty hard! But I will say apart from family and friends, I really miss the seasons of the year, especially Autumn and wearing a coat and hat walking through London as the evenings are getting darker!
What do you find the biggest difference is living here versus London?
The weather is crazy here, it’s so hot everyday and although I like the sun I burn very easily so I end up buying so much sunscreen so I don’t look like a burnt radish everyday. The other thing I would say is, that here I spend so much time driving, but luckily I really enjoy driving now and have become quite a fan of cars since moving here!
Do you have a hidden gem in LA that you want to share with us?
Recently I’ve just completed filming a movie called Steps. One of the shoot days we were filming down at The Pacific Mariners Yacht Club in Marina Del Rey, It’s so beautiful down there and you can rent boats and kayaks. So for anyone who likes being on the water I would head there and although I love being on boats, the 12 hours I spent out at sea filming, was 12 hours of sea sickness, so it might be a while before I’m back…
What would you suggest to others who are thinking about making the move here?
I would say make your you plan a good bit before you come out and have the right visa or green card. Buy a car as soon as you get here and just plan, plan, plan. Los Angeles really is a great place to live and if you do it right it will be awesome! And don’t forget to frequently visit the Brits in LA Facebook page for trusted vendors for cars and visa advice!
Lastly, how can we find out more about you?
