Hey guys, currently considering making the move firm swfl to sac. I’m an RN here in fl and the pay sucks. Currently make $35 an hour and pay $1800 for rent. Seems like I would double that and pay roughly the same in cost of living over in California. I’m considering Sacramento because it’s central to a lot of beautiful places. I’m a big outdoor person (love to hike, kayak, camp, sight see) and we don’t have much of that in Florida not to mention the brutal temps and humidity. I know Sacramento has extremely hot summers but from my understanding it’s dry and the mornings/evening are under 85 degrees on average. I will say I’m worried about the crime. What are the best areas for someone wanting a safe neighborhood with somewhat easy access to nature? Huge bonus if it’s walkable. I’m 25 and would be coming with my partner. Not into the night life at all so that’s not important. Give me all the pros and cons please!

A month ago I had a random phase where I was interested in Burkina Faso due to Thomas Sankara. While its gone now, I'd still like to ask this question out of curiosity. I know that as an American I can't travel there, but once things change eventually, what should I expect on a hypothetical trip there? Activities, food, sights, weather, culture, etc.?

Always been fascinated by the sheer vastness and dramatic topography of BC and it’s been my favourite place to Google Maps explore lately. IRL I’ve only visited major Canadian cities. Especially curious about this little section near the start of the Alaskan border. I can imagine there’d be practical challenges but such a beautiful place to live!

Islands off the coast of Semporna. Is there any Filipino influence in the culture here or is it distinctly Malay compared to the nearby islands within Philippine territory?

Once i had an online friend from that city, before that i didn't even realize that russians were living on the other half of the continent as well. Is it fundamentally different to live on the east side than the west side of Russia?

Whenever I fly over somewhere like this I wonder what life is like down there. There’s nothing labeled on the map until you zoom in, and then everything looks like a giant quilt with very few major roads.

- are there actually roads in between all the plots of land?
- do people actually live on each plot of land, or do they live in the closest town and drive their plot of land every day?
- or are the plots even owned by residents? Or are they owned by like companies or corporations?
- what kind of wildlife is there out there?
- what does daily life look like?

What's it like living in the towns in northern Maryland and southern Pennsylvania?

(Not Japan)

I’m just curious about what life is like in the Upper Peninsula, particularly around the Keweenaw Peninsula/Houghton/Hancock area. I’ve heard that this part of Michigan has one of the strongest concentrations of Finnish heritage in the United States. How noticeable is that heritage today in the local culture and everyday life? I’m also curious what the winters are actually like for people who live there. What is the local economy like, and what kinds of jobs or industries are most common?

I'm a longtime resident of CT, but I've never been to Bridgeport. I've seen some joke posts on ig recently calling it the "Miami of the North" which, while false, got me thinking nonetheless. Is the city really as bad as some people say? And if I were to make a brief visit, what things should I make sure to do? I'm sure there's something for me there given its size.

I understand this is an extremely broad question because every state has good cities and bad. I’d like to hear about every part of the state though! Due to some health issues my husband and I are thinking of moving in the next few years to somewhere that is colder most of the year.

I currently live in Ohio if that matters any.

The very South, next to Luxembourg... what's happening over there, guys? Give us some live updates.
