California

Sure, I miss Canada, but California is pretty fantastic in it's own ways and over the last 3 years it has become my home.

• It's always sunny. And when it's not, you love it, because it's such a rare occurrence.
• There are no mosquitoes here
• I can mountain bike ALL YEAR LONG
• I can ski and then mountain bike in the same day if I want to
• I can get to a ton of cool places within 3-8 hrs drive
• I like Palm Trees
• I can pick clementines, lemons, grapefruit and apricots without leaving my yard.
• Someday I can learn to surf and pretend to be the surfer chick I wanted to be in highschool
• No cold rainy gross windy Novembers
• No slush
• No -30 Celcius
• It really is beautiful here, when you can see through the smog

Most importantly, I love the friends I've made here, and the fun I've had here, and the guy I followed here... Would I have ever taken up Mountain biking or hiked 9 different peaks in one weekend, or camped under the desert stars if I hadn't moved to California? I'd hate to imagine my life without these or any of the multitude of other experiences I've had here.
