[quote=Anonymous]I live in a temperate mountain town with decent access to the big city and adorable historic houses with amazing architectural detail. We live in a walkable neighborhood and can walk to locally owned and very good bakeries, restaurants, coffee shops, and small health food grocer. We have a close knit and diverse neighborhood where kids play in the streets and neighbors are civically involved through active representation on local government boards and committees. Neighbors come from a huge diversity in terms of origins and professions and the conversations are always interesting. Husband and I both have passion jobs that actually pay decently and are stable. We have a comfortable upper middle class household income that allows us to not worry about day to day expenses but also not so high that we feel like we've lost touch with the middle class and have to worry about things like our kids not having perspective of the "real world." Husband is loving and devoted. We are both active and enjoy active pursuits together, like a weekend bike ride in the countryside. We both love travel and take our kids on cultural or active vacations that feel authentic at least once or twice a year. I live my fantasy life. However, even passion jobs can be stressful and old charming houses need a lot of maintenance and updating. And we are both working parents so the work -life balance thing is stressful. But writing this out makes me so grateful for my life. [/quote]
