I was born in Monterey, California and lived in nearby Seaside until I was 7. I remember the part of California I lived in having very comfortable weather most of the year, lots of foggy mornings, nice beaches, woods, hills, and mountains overlooking the town. It was very beautiful.

When I was 7, we moved to my current state of New Jersey. New Jersey is the butt of a lot of jokes and many people seem to think it is just collection of urban sprawls, industrial zones, and superfund sites. I think New Jersey is actually pretty beautiful. We have nice beaches and if you go out into the state's countryside you will see some nice meadows, forests, lakes, and hills. Northern New Jersey (where I live) even has mountains and waterfalls. We aren't called the Garden State for nothing! The only downside to living here (for me, anyway) is that we get all four seasons full blast. Summers are hot and humid while winters are freezing cold with lots of ice and snow.

Next month we are moving to Texas. From what I have read, Texas is a very big state with a large variety of natural scenery. The town we are moving to is located in the Texas Hill Country, which I am told has hills, waterfalls, and looks amazing during spring when the bluebonnets bloom. Sadly, it seems that Texas summers are supposed to be worse than New Jersey summers and the state loses electricity during cold temperatures.


I come from Texas.

I'm from Northern Spain. More directly, from the Principality of Asturias. Asturias is lovely and one day I hope I can go back and settle there with the husband. It's Celtic land, possessing its own language, home of sider and good food.

I grew up in New Orleans, Louisiana. Amazing city, incredible culture, excellent food, obscene levels of poverty.

Granted, I actually haven't lived in New Orleans for a while now, so it could be getting better.

I'm never been outside of Brazil, so it's hard for me to compare with anywhere else. I love it here, especially the peace and harmony and safety of our country, when compared to so much we see in the news from abroad; life is pretty comfortable and hopeful.

West Java, Indonesia, specifically on its capital. Though I live on its city outer rim, so during weekends (or weekdays really) I can just take a morning jog or walk a few kilometers to the upper mountainous areas and villages. Or go to the city downtown and explore around its slums and alleys, and then return home just before online college classes starts. It actually has an incredibly amusing and eye-opening experience, seeing "society" and completely new places, especially after a year of very little connection with the outside world due to the pandemic, and I recommend literally everyone to do the smae. I don't think I'll be touching any treadmill anymore for, well, ever.
