TacomaWorldlings who have decided to start over in a new city or state. How did it turn out?

How did it turn out and why did you pick that place?

For any reason? Chasing a dream. Logical, emotional.

Please, let's hear your story and don't be shy!!!!!!!!

 

I moved from California to Nevada when I was 19, had planned to when I was 18 but got chickenpox and was pretty sick. Friend of mine invited me to move here cause he said the snowboarding was unreal and that's why I went. It was far enough away from home but close enough for visits and I love it. Met my wife here and we tried to live in California but couldn't stand it so we moved back to Reno. Don't plan on leaving Nevada anytime soon.

 

After about 18 years in Michigan, (we don't need to go into THAT mistake), we moved to Colorado. Best move ever. There was one small hiccup when the company that moved me here decided to "right-size" the company. I'll let you guess whether the right size was larger or smaller. Another company picked me up immediately and that actually tied for the best move ever, I guess.

 

Changed city & state a few times & it's worked out for me.

Won't detail the reasons for my moves but, did so without a job, house or family/friends.

I'm still single but, have a decent job & a place...not sure I'll stay here but it's okay if I do.

What's driving your question? You moving?

 

Born and raised in south east michigan, and after 25 years I chased my dream job in idaho. Worked out great as everything is cheaper here and I have a nice seasonal job with the government. Moving to the mountains was an awesome choice as there's endless tracts of land to discover and explore. Now I'm just waiting on my tacoma to come in so I can get even deeper I to the woods. Great location, great price and some darn great views

 

Im want to move from VA to AZ in about 12 years (after I pay off my house and sell it) I dont know anyone there or have any leads on jobs. Just looking forward to hot weather. I still need to do more research, but that is the ultimate plan

 

Roughly every two years my wife and I move to a new city. It's great seeing new locations and traveling.

 

That sounds awesome. With my job I could travel for the summer then head back to home base for the winter. I definitely like seeing new places. Never stop exploring!
