Travel :The best things about living in a big city

Hey everyone,

Welcome back!

So as some of you may know, I've moved. Life has been a bit crazy this year & things have changed so much & for the better too which I'm super grateful & glad every step of the way. 

I was living in a smaller city, on an island actually before this & I've noticed a lot of difference since then and now. Because of that, I'd like to dedicate this post to the changes that has occurred in my life & the changes to it since.

Living in a bigger city firstly means, more people. It means, more things to do, more social life involved. There are good and bad in living in a bigger city but let's begin with the good as always ;) 

The Good Things About City Living

1.) Variety

With variety comes things to do, comes changes & less feeling 'stuck' doing the same thing over and over again. One of the biggest thing that bugged me is, what happens after you've explored the attractions , what happens after you've lived there for a few months ? Will you run out of things to do & see? To me, variety is important - it gives me something to look forward to whilst living here & that's why, I chose to move. 

2. )Open culture

In a bigger city, it's definite you'll have more people, and more people means more races, more culture & more diversity as well. For me, coming from a country that is diverse & multi-cultural, I'm used to that so being  in a city that has that, reminds me of home which is why I love it even more in a bigger city. Plus, not to forget different cultures comes with different festivities, different food, different religion beliefs & so much more to learn about what goes on around the world. 

3.) Adaptation

To be able to live in a place that is fast moving allows us to adapt to changes. Some people take it easier than others & some experience it a lot harder. No matter what, it's a good change to be able to expose yourself to this new environment. Sometimes changes brings new perspective which is what you need to change your life. 

 4.) New experiences & adventures 

With adapting to new culture, not only do we learn about them more & explore more of the world around us but also it gives us new doors to new adventures & to new experiences. By allowing ourselves to come out of our shell, to realize there's a whole new world out there, we give ourselves the best chance to live a happier life. 

5.)New perspectives.

With new perspectives, it means - it opens our eyes to looking at this at a different angle than what we are used to which is good cause nothing new was ever made if we were to do the same thing we did yesterday. The quote : 

Exactly. To get something new, we have to push ourselves out of our comfort zone to learn & adapt. 

So if you're on the same boat as me, congrats for taking the first step of living in a new city! 

Time for a new you ! 

Good luck & all the best,
