Ok ok I know that technically they belong to the US but they are south pacific so that's where I am putting this.


Anyone ever been to either?

^Haven't been but I do know that Guam is a popular vacation spot for people who live in Asia. Some people that work in my company's Taiwan office were going there and planned on going SCUBA diving. Not sure if this is remotely helpful but its the best I got.

Well thanks Jake, I learned something today. I had never heard of them, and made a short search on the net to know more. Seems pretty nice over there, to say the least...

Reason I ask is because I am chasing a job lead to work on one of the two. If things work out I will be taking a pay cut and my bills will be paid off that much slower but I am not sure that I can/should pass up the opportunity!
