I see more and more of my friends creating blogs and sharing their stories with everyone, so I thought I would do the same! I am really not good at writing, and for all of you "proper speaking folk," I apologize in advance. I really created this blog to share experiences with you since I am living at the beach, and most of you reading this are not.
I will say that living at the beach is both amazing and horrible. The pros is that you can get an epic tan, see beautiful beaches everyday, swim until the sun goes down, and the weather is, so you think, sunny. The cons are what most people don't understand because they only visit the beach. If you live in the peninsula, then you know that Florida weather is HORRIBLE! It is usually always humid. The sky can be blue as the ocean, but the wind can be at 35 mph. By the way, those gusts can lift you off your bike. There are ALWAYS afternoon thunderstorms with more lightning than you have ever seen. Florida is after all the lightning capital of the U.S.
But all in all it is an ok place to live. Jacksonville is beautiful. It is just expensive. and sometimes sketch. I thought living around Birmingham would be bad....hahaha....you haven't seen bad. There are also places that make me feel incredibly poor. It is also EXTREMELY diverse. Of course, coming from Alabama, this was expected, but this place is overflowing with culture. I love it. I like to put myself out of American culture every once in a while, and try new things.
Well I think this is it for my first blog post. Hope you have enjoyed reading this and more is to come!!
