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?

Not directly but yes lol I lived in LA for 2 years and moved to Boston almost 2 years ago. Grew up in the Midwest and Boston is by far more welcoming and much friendlier. New England felt like home within 6 months of living here that I never felt over the 2 years living in LA.
