As a note: I could see out of my passenger window + I could see both side mirrors. I could also see out the back a bit! A quilt held things back in my backseat. The angle with which I took the thumbnail pic is strange, so I wanted to clarify! In the chaos of moving alone, I didn't get to show this well. If you’re making a long drive like this, remember - safety first! :)

We were able to move his old furniture out for mine and kind of lay stuff out. And i drove my 2007 hyundai accent 13 hours while my pod was being shipped. With covid, all the highways were pretty much empty but it was really fun. Safe and happy journey! :)

There were some great pieces of furniture and more boxes that couldn’t fit in my car so I left them with my parents in PA. And because it was just me, I took my time and made it a fun road trip.

I don’t think I’ll be staying in California after my lease is up but I thought about moving to CO, OR, or WA. My question to you is, why did you decide to move to CO? Also, I think you chose the perfect time to move from your neighborhood. When I left there, it had gotten so bad. Hopefully things have changed in the 6 months since I’ve been away.

Okay so there are many cons to moving here (if you want to move here go for it), however, please understand the cons. - Pricing: the legalization of marijuana has brought a HUGE wave of new people wanting to live here (and also money to the state); therefore, pricing has sky rocketed. In my experience, looking for a simple apartment near downtown or neighboring cities (Englewood, Aurora is cheap but is noticed as not a desire place to live, Boulder, Broomfield, Lone Tree, etc) can cost damn near over 2,000 a month. Of course, you can always find cheaper and still have a home like apartment but, if you aren’t financially stable enough please take this into consideration. This is only talking about living space, I have yet to even mention Insurance, food, car maintenance (mostly gas), going out with friends, etc. SNOW: If you have never driven in any states where it snows....PLEASE TAKE THIS INTO CONDITIONS SERIOUSLY. Hell even native Coloradans can’t drive in the snow. Jobs: This is from my experience again, job searching is usually about the same as every other high populated state. The downside is that...you may not get the best pay overall. Especially if you’re considering going into teaching. Environmental cons: Alright so, we have trash and homeless problem everywhere now (both prior to covid and mostly likely after covid). Not to mention, a lot of people see our state as “clean” overall due to the nature but we do have a ton of factors and population here. We often have this haze over our city most days but, it’s not to bad normally. If you want to live in a “clean” city (which there isn’t really such thing in the United States) then, Colorado probably isn’t the best for you. We have people who don’t pick up their dog’s poop, other’s who litter, a ton of random garbage on the side of highways or parks, the aftermath of snow is disgusting 🤢, and so on and so forth (but what state doesn’t?) - These are just a few observation I’ve noticed in recent years; however, if you decide to live here then make yourself at home! Hope you enjoy Colorado!
