HAPPY FRIDAY!!! Living in Southern California for the past 6 years has been an amazing experience.  The weather is beautiful all year round and living by the beach is just breath taking. To be able to have the beach as your backyard, …. it just doesn’t get better than that. We are very fortunate to be able to travel and experience so many different cities and what each one has to offer, experience the culture, the food and the people. California has a more laid back vibe, of course being next to the ocean, you will see everyone riding their beach cruisers, cyclists taking over the streets, girls in bikinis,  guys surfing etc. California seems to also be into the healthier side of life which is great! Everyone is always working out, doing yoga, walking or running on the beach, and eating healthy. It is so motivating to see that! California is a perfect vacation spot but it is a pricey place to live. Like they say… “you have to pay to live in paradise”. This is definitely a place we may consider retiring at. I hope you all get to one day visit and experience Southern California like I have. It is definitely a place to add on your checklist of places to see! Disneyland, Universal Studio’s, Legoland, Knotts Berry Farm, San Diego Zoo, Seaworld, San Diego Safari…you name it, so many places to see and so much to do!!! Have a blessed and beautiful weekend!
