Me and @TheNomers enjoying a winter day downtown Greenville.Greenville, South Carolina is really quite an amazing place yet it seems like we have somewhat of an unknown treasure here. While I was in Florida in the recent weeks I got many comments on when I mentioned to where I moved to as being South Carolina. Many people replied sarcastically with “Oh, im sorry..” or “Do you have running water there?”which is quite funny since the area I come from in Florida the people seem much more backwoods than I have ever met here. People generally seem happy here, as compared to the daily misery I faced in Florida as many people seem very unhappy with their lives there.
I love my new home, even though I currently am still unemployed and wish I could move out of apartment life (Anyone have a cool rental house? We are looking!) I am happier than I ever was in Florida and can really see a future here, one that I have been searching for my whole life.
Today, I heard a comment about Mr. D and I that just cracked me up. “You two are like Greenville’s Posh and Becks. No wait…more like “Goth and Becks” “! I guess I will be staying in Greenville for quite awhile now if I have that royal status. *rolls eyes*
Recently, Greenville, South Carolina was featured on Good Morning America. Further supporting my choice to move here was a right one. Check out this article and video!
