    I grew up in San Diego, moved to NY for school, but ended up back in SD because I missed the weather, chill vibes, and just the people in general. There are so many different towns/areas here where you can find beach people, downtown people, desert people, etc and I’m sure you would really like it here 😊 plus there’s no shortage of charging stations!

    Excellent woodworking experience. I never had the benefit of taking a woodworking class, but as a self taught woodworker, I built a custom camper shell, a racing catamaran sailboat, a house full of custom furniture, 12 custom hollow body jazz guitars, along with several custom digital baby grand piano;s.

    San Diego is such an awesome place to live. I lived there for 10 years and I would 100% recommend living there. It reminds me of LA a little, weather is great, people are great, smaller than LA but not too small, and is a LOT cleaner than LA. Try a month out down there!

    LA's weather is great but all the other major issues that LA has now doesn't compensate for it anymore? It's easy to catch a train in NYC but the crime is so bad that people are getting pushed in front of trains? Maybe Shelby should look for a property in South Carolina where Sam is from? The state has some cool beach communities like Myrtle Beach and Hilton Head Island?

    To LA I always say............
    There's no place like home 🥰
    I TOTALLY think you should get a home base in the OC area, but that's been my opinion for a while. Where do YOU feel at home?? Does LA bring that comfortablility? Do you feel like this is potentially where you could lie your head forever?? Or at least for a great majority of your life? If so, LA or maybe just SOCAL in general is home. Personally, I will always love my OC town. I can travel so often between so many cities just by car. I'm so close to airports. Maybe try it out sometime? I've been here almost 16 years HAHAH

  • @GoodandDelicious
    @GoodandDelicious 2 роки тому +1

    I recently discovered my favorite part of LA and it’s not perfect because it can’t get really busy but it’s Studio City. I love how clustered so many places are near Ventura and Laurel Canyon Blvd. The idea of being able to walk to the grocery store or a coffee shop and yet be in LA just fills me. But if could actually choose the house it would be nearer to the Ralph’s on Ventura going towards where Ventura turns into Cahuenga Blvd West. There’s a neighborhood there filled with older homes that have been remodeled that I adore. My brother scored a one bedroom basically behind the LA Fitness and I recently dog/house sat for him. While there I did some Instart Cart batches to be able to make some extra cash and I just fell in love with the area. His part is much quieter during the day and night but because of the deliveries I got to really drive around with purpose and see that I could totally live there. Consider it cause I’m sure you go to that area often. I’ve lived in many places, including Park Slope, Brooklyn and it’s like the best of both worlds.

    Omg! That charcuterie board is amazing. Well done. My dad was a woodworker in his 20's and 30's. When I was born he used to make us wooden toys out of the garage. I would have loved to do woodworking with him but I was always so busy with school and extracurriculars. That's so cool that you are doing that!

    I haven’t been to LA, but the traffic sounds terrible. I would love it if you’d come check out Richmond (RVA). It’s small, but it’s not sprawling, it takes 15 min to get anywhere, there is somewhat decent transit and we have great people! It’s growing and has a nice urban feel and fab restaurant scene. Would love to work with you if you ever want to film something here! I’m connected to everyone here so could help you create some great content.

    San Diego is amazing!! You should definitely spend some time down here to see if you like it! I moved here two years ago from LA & it is the best decision I could've made for myself. While yes it's still expensive like LA, I have found that the overall quality of life is SO much better in San Diego. I didn't know anyone here either when I moved & I've found that it's way easier to make friends here as long as you put yourself out there because people are generally more down to earth. Also I love that San Diego is still a big city but no where near as big is LA. The traffic really isn't that bad aside from normal rush hours & I find that the roads & highways are much easier to navigate here. I could go on all day about how much I prefer San Diego over LA, but seriously please come see for yourself! I never considered living here before I moved and now I cannot imagine myself living anywhere else.

    I've just left California (not by choice) and I miss it terribly. People can criticize the state all they want but it's beautiful, the weather is amazing and the lifestyle can be so good - so I don't blame you for thinking about returning. So much more to SoCal than LA so I'm sure you could find a better fit for you. OC and SD counties have loads to offer. You do seem to keep gravitating back to CA, so maybe that tells you something?

She's been living in "modest" house in san mon for a number of years, bit over a million when she bought it I think, and I suspect she can afford significantly more now. Say 4-6mill with a basin view. No idea if the idea could work in practice... maybe she's bored, maybe she'd like a cool new house, her buddy Ro Pansino has a new fancy mansion, maybe she's jelly :) she also recently bought a Model S plaid, she has been tesla ignorant up until then. Ro lives in the foothills on the valley side, no view.
