How to live by the ocean
It made me
Happy
 "The most amazing and beautiful place to live in the world imo."
How I did it: I set a goal and never let it out of my sight. I made the decision I would not move across the country without finding a job first, so I cleaned up my resume and sent it out to many companies in renewable energy. After being persistent with following up, and working hard at getting rid of many of my excess possessions, I loaded up my car and drove 2,000 miles to the beach! Lessons & tips:
Resources: Use the internet to your advantage to search for jobs on sites like monster.com or greenjobs.com. Visit the city/state/country visitor's websites for information.

How I did it: Well, when I was about twelve, my family moved to Delaware, in a town called Lewes, which is right on the Atlantic Ocean. I was the only one in my family who didn't want to leave our town in Pennsylvania. However, as I grew older, I also grew more attached to the ocean. Now that I was forced to move away, I'm realizing how lucky I was to be there in the first place. Read how I did it…

How I did it: Lucky enough to find a company that had a corporate headquarters in Southern CA. worked a deal that brought me from the east coast to the west coast. In that move, I made it a priority to find a rental unit near the water - worked hard with a real estate agent who did the leg work on narrowing down choices near the water. Ended up with a beautiful view of the Pacific ocean - I lived there for 18 mos, (near Laguna B… Read how I did it…

I’ve been to beaches many times in my life always had a good time. Yet after last weekend with just my friends and as an adult rather than a kid or teenager, it hurt to leave.
The beach area, in Delaware if you have to know is uber-touristy but to be near the water, breath the salty air, it is hard to describe just how wonderful the whole experience can be.
I’d be happy enough to live by an ocean for a month or two, close as in within biking distance, that would be wonderful.

who I’ve known since I was four years old, lives by the ocean. She lives five minutes from the beach and can see the ocean from her bedroom window. I am incredibly jealous.
One day I will do this.

Live by the Ocean
15 months ago
I want to live by the ocean someday! Someplace warm, with palm trees, and beauty all around. But, not someplace like Southern California because I don’t like the materialism and image-driven culture there. I would like to live in a beautiful place where people think for themselves and enjoy art, culture, and fun! Ideally, I think I’d like to live in France on the Mediterrainian Sea…

One of the best things I've ever done

I wake up happy every morning because it smells like sand and sea. The temperature is beautiful. My apartment is bright and cheery. I stand on my patio and can watch the sailboats cruise by. Living by the ocean is so relaxing and serene that it’s almost made me into a new person. This is one of the most important things on my list and I’m so lucky to have already done it.
