This section of Orlando feels very safe. It just seems not many people really spend time outside their home. At least not in this area.

That or, if Orlando news is still as scary as when I lived there, everyone keeps their kids inside for fear of anything bad happening. Overall, a very accurate description of the area – and I’m sure made all the more weird coming from Mexico.

I’ve never been a fan of the cookie cutter-type neighborhoods and even less so now. I used to live in Temple and have been to Austin several times. I really like it there and think we’ll enjoy it more. There will be more diversity at least and that will help.

No, it definitely hasn’t been easy at all.

At least it never is for me when I visit friends and family back in Brazil, but you’ll get used to it – with some health restlessness that keeps feeding the Traveling Bug! 🙂

I’ve been following you and Tigger for about 2 years now and Wow Tigger has grown up so much. I live in a cookie cutter neighborhood in San Antonio & I’m ready to move on soon. My son is living in Austin. It is a much more progressive city. A great vibe around town and plenty to do. You will feel more at home there. enjoy your stay.

Which I noted. 😉 I think our Texas experience will be much different for sure.

They definitely aren’t for me either.

It stands out even more when you’ve abroad, as you are just finding out!

I’ll be interested to follow along as you live in various types of communities.
