I do like where I live ...


So when I hear things about New England and it's history and culture and people, I tend to pay attention.

Just recently, the peeps over at GoFundMe declared we New Englanders to be the most generous:


We occupy the top three positions on their per capita donations rankings, and four out of the top five, and six of the top ten.

Despite this love of where I'm from, my wife and I are discussing where we want to live the rest of our lives.

It's not a decision to be made immediately. I'm currently enrolled in another degree program so I couldn't move immediately anyway. And she has a successful accounting practice here.

But long term ... It's this where we want to call home? It's an open discussion.

Do you love where you live?

Would you ever pick up and move?

What would motivate such a decision?

Is climate a good enough reason?

@Jessmari That's what I'm afraid of!!!

I don't want to waste all the time and energy and money to move just to conclude that I love New England too much and end up coming home. 🤦‍♀

@sarabee1995 its not a waste. Sometimes you need to explore for a time. You meet some people and see some things. Then you seen enough lol

@Jessmari This is my issue with Americans (or any other nation) yelling about how they are the best at anything, without having properly experienced other cultures (and I dont mean from a tour bus or hotel window)and get out there and seen it, smelt it and walked a mile in its shoes..😷

@whowasthatmaskedman once upon a time. Now a days I'll stay home an not leave rhe country as they probably wouldn't let me back in on the return.
