Being a continuous traveler with never ending curiosity, I’ve been tapping into the house market of the destination area of my last three trips on the internet. New England.
First of all, I miss seeing “old” structures and “old” trees that are a different shade of green than found in Texas. Lastly and most importantly, I miss living on or near the water which I grew up on when living in Michigan. The beautiful beaches and the beautiful old towns of Connecticut have been drawing me in.
Like Michigan, cost of living and crime are both factors on where I choose to live. Hours of research and then on sight visits are imperative to make the best decision plus trust of my instincts.
The sound of rain plus the sound of the movement of water has always made a calming impact on me. It might be that I am born under the fire sign of Sagittarius that I am drawn to the opposite of water. The heat and the hot sun drains my energy so I am always grateful when the weather gets cooler here in Texas. Thus, my desire to live near water.
Decided to move to Texas came after one visit when it was all I could afford although I believe it I did multiple trips, I am not sure that I would have moved here. Grateful though for my life here that includes my work, my house and my felines.
Truthfully, searching on the internet provides information while experiencing it in person provides food for the soul. Plus, seeing something with your own eyes can help provide a complete picture.
In Peace,
