New Places, New Faces. Over 10 days I've been here in Richmond and here is what I am loving about this great city so far.
1. NO TRAFFIC - What? Yes, my drive to work and even going downtown is traffic free and I am loving it. Growing up in the suburbs of D.C. and going to school in a college town has lead me to live two different traffic lives, and if I never have to sit in a backup again, it will be too soon!
2. The People - Southern charm at its finest. People hold open the door, smile as you walk by, greet you kindly and say please, thank you, and yes sir. Plus shout out to my internship class, they are all so fun!
3. Short Pump - Yes, this may be the only place you find "traffic" but an outdoor mall with all my favorite stores and restaurants, yes please!
4. The Food - While I have not experienced that many places yet, there are so many options. Along with all the main staples, they have other great options too. And lets just say they do Seafood proud and thats a lot coming from a Maryland gal.
Can't wait to see what else is in store! 3 day work week and 4 day weekend here I come!
Loving your post about Richmond!!! I'll be home tomorrow and can't wait!
