I live in the south now after growing up in Mass. and living in Boston for many years. I miss the people and how real most people are (or seem to be). Everyone has a much better sense of humor and you can cut through the BS. Down here you have to tip toe around subjects and spend more time putting on airs. Oh, I miss the seafood and Mary Lou’s coffee, too.

I’m from the south too and moved here for college and I know exactly what you mean. People are nice surface level sure, but so many topics are hush-hush (especially with older generation). Having to drive a lot sucks too.
