Speaking of Change: Moving

*Inspiration: Traveling and moving was a big part of my childhood, and even today. Even though at times I disliked it, the good times traveling and moving overpowered the bad. Here are some of the places I moved around from and to.

Sharpstown, Houston, Texas:
Although everyone believes that Sharpstown is the bad part of Texas, it is actually my one of my favorite place to this day. However, I am biased because I lived here for most of my childhood and grew to love it, but there is something so raw, so pure about a rundown town. I love everything here, the people, the graffiti, the food, everything.

Missouri City, Texas:
I do not like this town even though people consider it to be desirable to live in. I do not like the people because most of them are snobs (although I have meant a couple of nice people), the food (but I do like the Aura and Tornado Burger), nor the buildings. It is so conformed and restricted, that it is getting ridiculous. I mean in what other city can you drive by 9 churches. Sorry, but Missouri City, Texas, is not my cup of tea.

Austin, Texas:
The music, the vibe, Lake Travis, everything is great. I would not live here though because of all the hills, which make me feel a bit nauseated.

Lake Conroe, Texas:
This is the place where I can get used to it. The people are so nice, and the vibe is very chilled out and relazxed. I love how they determine the closing and opening time of restaurants and the marinas (sun rise is opening, sunset is closing), absolutely amazing.

Destin, Florida:
Again, one of my favorite places in the world. I love northwest Florida because it is beautiful and everything is great. Everything is pure there and the water is the most beautiful thing ever.

Paris, France:
It was magical when I went there, it was winter. Even though I got sick and was only four, I remember how pretty the city was, the difference of it when I arrived from America. Everything was perfect. I loved it, and the memory of the doctror visiting me still burns in my brain.

Denver, Colorado:
My experience here was not the greatest. Prefer not to talk about it. The only decent memory is that I was eating gummy moose while painting snow.

Vietnam:
I love tropical weather, but I had food poisoning. I have a love-hate relationship with this place.

Taipei:
It was hot, it was crowded, and the hustle and bustle of the city is not for me.

Toronto, Canada:
Not the ideal place for me, probably because I had my lost summer there and do not remember half of the memories that were shown through photographs.

Chicago, Illinois:
The cleaner and more foody New York. I love everything about this place, and even though I would not stay here for long, it is comforting to know that I actually like an inland area.

Orange County, California
My trip here for the first time was enjoyable, but I did not like the second time around, mostly because I did not go wherever I wanted to go the second time. Despite the fact that I was younger the first visit, I felt as though I had more freedom and went everywhere.

New York, New York
Not my favorite place either. It was ok and I had an experience.

These are places that left marks on my body and my heart. I went to other places, but these stook out the most.

With love,
