Seven Things I Already Love as a SouthCoast Newcomer

It can sometimes be a little overwhelming taking in all the sights and sounds of a new place when you move. Luckily, life is finally starting to settle down for my boyfriend and I, and now that we've been living in Massachusetts for almost a month, we're finally getting to experience more of the SouthCoast.

I was born and raised just north of Seattle, Washington, but spent the past two years of my life in Central New York, and believe it or not, so far, the SouthCoast reminds me a lot of both places. While there is still so much for Evan and I to explore, I thought I'd give you an update about some of my favorite parts of the SouthCoast, in hopes that you can then share some of yours.
