Foreign Student Coming Next Summer - Help Needed (Myrtle Beach: 2013, to rent)

[srk007]

Hello All,

I have got a job in Myrtle Beach Area and i am coming Late April 2013. I have few questions and i hope somebody would be kind enough to answer it

1) I will be on J1 Visa and thus have 4 months job. I am really interested in experiencing US Culture. Thus, i want to live with a host family. Is that possible? Of course, i will pay for the rent, utilities etc...I am Indian (from India btw)

2) How is the area? I mean the crime rate etc...Which parts should i not visit and stay away from ? Any particular tips to stay away from any trouble?

3) Is there any Indian Food Restaurant Available?



Kind Regards
SRK

srk007,
I personally have had foreign students stay my home in the past and can say the Myrtle Beach area is a fine place to visit and has low crime rate!

I do not know what area you will be working, so if you supply me with this information, I could be of more help to you!

Thank you and take care,

Dan in Myrtle Beach, SC

Dan,

I have actually the same question. Me and my friend are coming to Myrtle Beach this summer. My cousin used to come there for 2 summers and said it is hard to find a place to live.

Are there any families that are willing to rent rooms to foreign students for the summer?

Thank you.
