Live near the beach

well, i don’t live on the beach but i definitely live closer-about 2.5 miles away. I’d like to move closer but this will do for now at least I can bike there or even walk!

I hope to be able to establish my career so much so that I have the freedom to live wherever I want.
I desperately want to be closer to the ocean!

I love the beach , when im there it totally clears my head and I can forget about everything.

I want to live somewhere peaceful and beautiful. I love the ocean. I know I would be happy seeing something so beautiful every day.

Well Maui is about as close as you get to the beach…ahhh the island life! I can’t wait!

I can’t stand another speck of snow.

thought i don’t live really close to the beach..
at least now where i live, i can actually take a trip there and it doesn’t take too long.
i love the beach :)

So peaceful… best experience ever!

It’s easy for me to overwrite this. But I’m hoping you’ll read it and have some suggestions for me. so I’ll keep it simple.

I’ve always been in love with the West Coast.
I’ve been in small-town conservative Oklahoma since I was six.
I was obsessed with California colleges, but ultimately couldn’t afford the out-of-state fees. so I stayed home. My school was a fairly good fit, but I’m NOT that girl that stays here. My family isn’t even here anymore.
I’m always telling people about mid-to-north California – where the beachs are nice, and the trees are tall. I was born in the Northwest, so even as a kid I was always disappointed in Oklahoma’s trees.

I’m pretty scared about the cost differences. I’ve graduated college and I’m struggling to figure myself out. I’m not doing much of anything,and I feel stagnated. It’s risky, without a real goal, much of an idea how to support myself (besides my mom’s help)—but I thought maybe if my surroundings were more satisfying, gratifying, stimulating…. maybe I could find what I want to do. Maybe it wouldn’t matter so much WHAT I do, because life’d just feel BETTER.
I try not to glorify it, I know a change of place can’t fix everything, but something isn’t working. And there’s this place I’ve always wanted…

i’ve always lived within a twenty minute (max.) drive from the beach, but that is going to change soon. I wonder what it will be like?
