Where to next?

The great thing about not having any family living with you when you live abroad is that when you grow tired of one place, you can just pack up your shit and move on.

This is precisely what I will be doing soon.

But where to next? Do I want a large city, or a small town? Snow or sun? Beach or farm? Birckenstocks or flip flops? Yes folks, these are all question one needs to ask oneself when one is considering moving oneself to another place.

San Francisco was beautiful. But expensive. Vegas, well, I've been here a few months, and that's a few months too long.

Perhaps I should throw a dart at the map and go where it lands. Or do a nationwide resume drop from the air and go where there's interest. I have no aversion to any particular area, except for perhaps Mississippi or Alabama.

A need a place with culture, with restaurants, with museums. A need a place with soul, with life. I want to feel settled and enjoy living there. It should have outdoors, or at least have them nearby.

Any suggestions?
