I go to lake Calhoun several times a week.
I have lived in Minnesota for a two years now, and I spend more time at the lakes here than I ever spent on Miami beaches (and I lived in Miami for six years.)
My quality of life is far better in Minneapolis. Miami is glamorous, but it caters to tourists, the wealthy, and the orange.
I love that I can bike around Minneapolis, take public transit without wearing a gas mask, and study at dozens of independent cafes. Minneapolis is caked in parks, full of amusing immigrants and sub-cultures, and just a vibrant place to live.
I love it, crazies, cold, and all.
Some folks might consider me crazy, but when I moved 1200 miles north to Minneapolis, I moved home. The culture, the people, the seasons…all parts of the puzzle that make for a great place to live. So, at least to me, your admiration and enjoyment of the Twin Cities is completely understandable!
Mhm. Loove it!
Not to mention, it’s a gorgeous city all year round.
True! Looove it!
And it’s more interesting with you in it!
Awe, thank you!
