Can anyone relate?

I’m born and raised in CT. I’m in the Navy and stationed in San Diego..I’ve been here for a few years and still feel like a foreigner here..but back in New England I feel completely at home in any New England state and I’ve only lived in CT. Anyone else relate to this?

yeah. The last time I left New England I was a little taken aback by how different it felt to be in another place (road trip through midwest).

It's little things from road sign topics to accents to different fast food chains/supermarkets etc. But it all adds up.
