Relationship status: "It's complicated"

in #story7 years ago (edited)


Have you ever had a really complicated relationship with a city? A place where you've had some of the best times of your life, but also some of the worst?

That's what my relationship with Miami is like. If Miami was a person on Facebook, I'd set my relationship status to "it's complicated".

(This video gets REAL - don't say I didn't warn you!)

In this video, I read a blog post I wrote over some b-roll that I recorded. Love to hear what you think :)

I completely get what you mean. I feel the same way about my hometown, Rome.

Hometowns are definitely complicated. Do you still live there?

No, I've actually moved country (same continent).

I come back every few months for friends/family/social obligation but I still have that love/hate feeling.

And what's Miami for you? College, work..? I've been there - definitely didn't love the humidity&temperature but liked the atmosphere :)
