I used to live in CA, however constantly people were coming to visit me.
I never realized how numerous “friends” I had until I lived in a sunny, fun state! Suddenly everyone wanted to fly and stay with me.
I realized that I was a vacation hub… Everyone wanted to take advantage of the fact that I lived in the city, a nice 1, then they wanted to rest on the beach, try legal recreational weed and have a free vacation. I got the joys of being their taxi, maid, cook and cleaner. I started to get to the point that I wanted to tell everyone that I was no longer the free airbnb, then work solved that for me though. I got a promotion that requires me to transport to MI. What do you know about that state? Absolutely nothing right? All I knew was it was freezing there. When I saw my town was Lowell, I knew it was perfect. I didn’t know anything about the area. What is better is that nobody else did either. Suddenly all of these friends that had to see my numerous times a year didn’t have time for me… My family no longer wanted to stay at my apartment for weeks at a time. I entirely got to enjoy my beach apartment in peace and quiet, and joke is on them… Lowell is awesome. I like that it is smaller, quieter and a lot cooler. I got sick of the hot weather, then actually getting snow is a real treat. Another pro is that Lwoell offers recreational weed. There are some amazing dispensaries here. I know my freeloader friends would like the area. I am not telling them that though.
