I moved to Florida, lived there for two years, then moved back to RVA. I liked living there, but it just didn't work out for me. It didn't help that I moved there right before the pandemic started so I couldn't travel around the state like I had planned to. I've been back for a year and a half and I've got a really great, high-paying job that I love. Couldn't do that in Florida because the pay is so low. You're not insane; Florida's not for everyone. Pack up and come home.

PS: I don't know where in Florida you are, but take a trip to St. Petersburg. It's artsy and a little quirky like Richmond. If I'd lived there instead of Tampa, I might have been happier in Florida. By the time I realized that, rents had gone up so high, I couldn't afford to live there.
