I'm in a bit of a tricky situation, family wise. That might be possible in 3 years, but before then, it would be very difficult.
What are the constraints? Money, time, law, other?
My parents are travel-phobic. They are deeply against me traveling in any capacity. Right now I am living at home/college. I could not rely on them to pay for a trip, nor do I have the money myself. Plane tickets, hotel rooms, renting a car or whatever would require quite a lot. Beyond that, I wouldn't know anyone in the area, and would be there by myself. Even if I were to save up the money, I would only be able to go to 1 or 2 places for a very limited amount of time. The only state where this is not the case is California. My best friend lives there and would probably let me stay on the couch for a few days.
In addition, you may be able to spend a week in Shannon Friedman's house.
So your original question (where to move some day) can for now be replaced with a simpler one: "how do I travel on the cheap to California for a few days?" Is this right?
There are other ways to get a place to stay for a night or two. If you are looking to go to an interview for a job, check out a school/town/neighborhood or the like, that may be all you need. I've had good luck with couchsurfing.org. but your results may vary.
