Texas' recent turn to an authoritarian right-wing extremist government is also just pushing me away. I lived in Montrose briefly after college and I still couldn't go car free.Īlso flooding, the fact that Houston is sinking more and more each year, and Houston's industries are so boom and bust and that also affects the quality of life depending on the cycles. I want a higher quality of life and I think it's very hard to have that if you have to drive all time. I'm sick of driving, and as much improvements Houston is making with public transit and improving biking and pedestrian infrastructure - it's still investing heavily into freeways and expanding roads. I represent it with all my heart and and my family is here, but I cannot continue to live in a car-dependent city anymore. I don't know if I would stay in Houston though. I'll probably stay in the US for a few years after I finish just to establish myself some. I figured it would be worth it since I want to start my own business one day and I'm sure I'll have a lot of remote work opportunities with a CPA title next to my name, so I can move elsewhere. I'm starting a CPA program at Lone Star next semester and it'll probably take me about 2 years to finish it. As I save money and work on my escape plan, I'm living with my grandmother rent free. Been trying to move out of the country for years. Original subreddit logo by oncheosis, new version by ryushe, header background from AintAintAWord, sidebar image from unknownįamily mostly.
