After coming back from my 3 months in Japan where I as studying Japanese while staying with a host family, I flew back to LA, drove to the Bay Area with all my stuff in a car, and moved in an apartment in Mountain View while I started my first real job (not an internship) as a unix sysadmin administrator consultant for Taos Mountain where I then got assigned to Network Appliance, and later on to Silicon Graphics and VA Research/VA Linux Systems.
(I later on got my green card, became an employee at VA Linux, and a few years later went to Google)
