I’m in the process of doing the above and would like to hear about your experience. Were there any surprises? What was as you expected?

    The pond gets small really fucking quick. You will run into someone you know almost every time you leave the house. You can’t just blend in and get away from anything. Including whatever reputation you develop.

    It’s honestly fucking awful.

      Y’know, that’s the primary thing people cite as being nice about a small town. Interesting it was a nasty surprise for you.
