I made the opposite move. I lived in Melbourne beach for 2 years before moving to rva. They are very different places each with their own positives and negatives. I loved the small beach town vibe of indiatlantic, restaurants etc. I’ve recently relocated to San Diego and now I miss both Melbourne and RVA for different reasons. I know right now how nice the fan is with the weather and leaves changing.

I think it’s good to go and try new places. If you end up going back to rva, there will likely be something you’ll miss about the Space Coast, I’m sure!
