GIVING MY HOMETOWN ONE LAST TRY

was so so so obsessed with leaving for so long but as of late i’ve come to resent the nyc/la brain drain epidemic and i’ve also come to appreciate the importance of trying to build community where you are for the people who can’t afford to leave. if this last push doesn’t work out though i’m definitely gone for sure lmao

Leaving and Returning to new york

I’ve been here for so long the longest I’ve ever lived anywhere and occasionally i feel like maybe it’s time to move on and then I go literally anywhere else in the country and I’m so relieved to be back home!!!

leaving Your hometown

I lived in Massachusetts for 28 years until 1 year ago today when I moved to NYC. I was feeling stagnant and afraid that I’d be there forever if I didn’t make a change. I am happy to say it was one of the best decisions I‘ve made. I don’t know if I’ll be here forever but I‘ve learned more about myself in 1 year than the last 5 and that’s something I’ll always be thankful for. I’ve made new friends, reconnected with old, gotten a new job, moved apartments, and had an enumerable unforgettable memories. If you are feeling stuck where you have always been, I recommend making a change because it will be both one of the more challenging and rewarding decisions you make. p/c riotgrrrl
