Hi all San Franciscans,

I just learned that we are officially coming to your city. My 'soon to be' wife and I are so estatic about relocating to the city in 2.5 weeks! We are counting every single day.

We will be your neighbors soon and you'll like us, I guarantee. We both are liberals and want to be surrounded by people that cares about mother Earth. Nope, we're not hippies (maybe modern hippies?).

My wife has loved SF since 2002 when we came here for vacation. Now her dream has come true, and I am her dream maker (hehehehe, j/k).

We have journeyed from LA to NYC to SD, and now to SF! And we're staying put. No more moving. We have not been this exuberant about moving to these other cities like we are for SF.

And we're not afraid about high cost of living because we don't care for big houses or fancy cars, we just love good food and nice people.

Woooooooooooooooooooooohoooooooooooooooooooooooooo o!!!

PS. Sorry if this thread is not conducive to this forum.

Well, not much to discuss other than congratulations and if she (SF) opens her arms to you then you know it was meant to be!

Thanks bellalunatic.

So how would I know if SF opens her arms to us? We will serve her well, I know that.

It is meant to be , because two years ago I was giving the opportunity to come to SF and I made a huge mistake by going to SD . So, she's giving us a second chance.

welcome. fancy cars and big houses aren't the only expensive things here, rent, cost of living, those amazing restaurants, etc. do add up. HOWEVER, enjoy them!!! There is so much to do here that is not very pricey, or free. Lots to see and do, and welcome! enjoy. But please, please, please, brings lots of layers, sweaters, jackets, long pants, etc. Enjoy!

> Can you give some examples of cheap and free things to do other than going to parks and walking around the city?

Thanks CiNYC and sfwithdog!

Yes, high cost of rent and food included. We lived in Manhattan before, so we are prepared. We got it covered if not, strolling around the city and exploring neighorhoods are always free. Hehehehe.

Yeah, fortunatley we didn't throw away our NYC wardrobes. We are very prepared. 17 more days!
