From City living to Farm life in 6 months-Introduction NY to San Diego

Hi Steem,

Very Happy to be a part of this growing community and do what I can to contribute :)

My girlfriend and I of 3 years (Here account is waiting to be approved) decided in August of 2016 that city life, especially New York City life was getting Frustrating to say the least. Mind you at the time we both had very decent jobs making good money She worked at BMO capital bank and I was the General Manager at a Retail Store PC Richard and son in the Heart of Manhattan.

Me messing with my coworkers lol

I was born and raised in New York specifically in LOISAIDA and I will always love the city that made me the way I am. However at the time we were both living in Brooklyn's East Flatbush area and commuting along with high stress jobs was making us both unhappy
View from our roof. You can see the Freedom Tower but barely

So we came up with a CRAZY! idea. How about we see if we could find jobs in the legal Marijuana industry seeing as how we were both enthusiasts :p20150412_132059.jpg

So in April of 2017 we decided to make the Jump with her coming out 2-3 months before i did to keep some type of income going as we transitioned. Not a bad plan and worked out well for the most part even though being apart was difficult for 3 month until July when i packed everything in the Car and drove cross country to Southern California .

Some pics from my cross country drive. Which if you have never done it(a little scary) please try it although probably with a copilot lol. Took about 6 days since i stopped along the way to rest at some Airbnbs. NO DROWSY DRIVING GUYS!
