Advice? Moving To A New City

[thederekeffect1]

I need advice. I just moved to a new city today. I really had no choice. It was move here or end up homeless. Well, 1) I've lived in a good sized city most of my life where everything is just there for you. This city is small... It's like a 10 mile drive to the city. 2) I know nothing about moving to a new city. I know nobody and I'm not the country boy type.

anyone want to share advice on moving to a new city?

I guess it depends what the city is.

I moved to Arizona and it is the center of hell itself.

When you get there, find one of the local free arts/entertainment publications and give it a peruse. It will give you a good idea of what types of clubs/events go down there, and you can develop a sense of what things are going to be like. That's what I do whevever I travel to a new city, and it seems to help. Good luck in your new city brother.

Just for clarification, how small are we talking? 100,000?

I recently moved to a new city as well. It was tough leaving the place you lived most of your life but the sense of adventure and being a stranger is something i like. I can work on my game and not worry about being watched due to being known or having people hear of things I did. Less social repercussions for behavior.

Use this move to a new city to work on your game. You got nothing to lose. If you get embarrased, who will know when nobody knows you? no worries about people hearing things about you, you can do what you want. Being a stranger in a new town ain't a bad thing.

The Phobe brings up a good point. We used to play "Not Our Town" back in college. We'd get shytty drunk and make arses out of ourselves when visiting a new city, because it wasn't our town and we had no reprecussions socially.

In all seriousness, your starting with a clean slate and this is a good thing. Sarge some guys along with the women and make some friends. Have fun and relax. You'll be cool.
