I grew up in Florida but my family is from Massachusetts and I would visit during summer and winter breaks. I always dreamt of moving to MA, mainly because I always wanted seasons. Then growing up and realizing how terrible FL is on a whole…. Been here in MA almost 10years and I’m never going back to FL.

Oh wow. What type of advice do you have on making that move?

I lucked out that I just moved in with my parents, who had moved to the Cape while I was in college. I sold everything I owned other than my clothes and personal items, packed up my car a drove here. Nowadays with everything so expensive, I’m not sure how you’d go about it unless you had a job and a place to live lined up.

Offer up, Craigslist, and donated whatever was left. Only brought what I could afford to mail and fit in my car. lol I was in my mid 20s at the time and didn’t own much anyway.

Ahh, since I was 12 I have been actively reselling items to make money and as a hobby, therefore I have so much stuff, a lot of it being worth a good value for a niche buyer. It will be hard to unload it all for sure… but if I get a justified amount of money for it I’m in a great position
