All of the beauty in DC! The museums, the good food, the architecture of buildings (not you FBI building), the vibrant and unique neighborhoods, our parks, the rivers, the metro stations, cherry blossom season, etc. I can live car-free. The job opportunities was something I never could have dreamed about coming from a small town in the south. I was drawn to this place after visiting for the first time in 2017.

Growing up I never wanted to visit here cause I would hear from snowbirds how it couldn’t compare to NY, or how it wasn’t even a city with a skyline or how it’s only here to host the government.

All of those things are just jaded opinions. DC has a ton of beauty. I’ve been here for a few years now and I’m not even done exploring.
