I just moved from Denver to small town Nebraska. I needed a break from the huge corporate environment, but I ended up taking a better job in a town I just didn't think enough about. Took it mostly to be closer to family. So I have a decent job in a bad town. I'm not a small town person. I need the big city life. So, I'm still in relocation mode. Thinking Chicago, San Francisco or Seattle. Maybe return to Denver. Monterey on the outside. Love Monterey, even though it's smaller.
I don't like where I currently live (I was born & raised here) and I am in the process of relocation. I'm not really sure exactly what city or state I'll end up but I do know it won't be anywhere in the Midwest.
I love where I live. Four beautiful, very distinct seasons (including one of the most amazing autumns anywhere on the planet), tons of forest, rivers, lakes, rolling hills, mountains. Loads of history, architecture dating back to the 1600s, wonderfully preserved towns and villages. None of the suburban sprawl or cookie-cutter houses you see in other parts of the country. Primarily local small businesses. Only an hour and a half from the ocean as well as Boston, one of the greatest cities in the country. Only two hours to French-speaking Canada and its beautiful cities. I feel at home with the people (and their accents ).
Being young and living in a rural area, however, I suppose my only complaint is that it can be boring at times. Which is why I love to travel. And while I'll probably start my career in Boston or another city, I will definitely return to the countryside to settle down. There's no place like home.
I can't wait to get out of New England. My history teacher says he doesn't understand why anyone would want to leave New England for college. I don't understand why anyone would stay in New England for college.
