Moving to a new place is scary and lonely. When I first graduated college I moved myself 4 times in one year. I moved from Texas to New York to California and finally to Sacramento. This was one tough year.
*This photo was taken when I went to Costa Rica with my Acroyoga community
I have always been an extravert, which means I thrive from other people’s energy. Moving to unfamiliar places was hard, because I did not know a single person.
I am happy to say that after living in Sacramento for 3 years, I now call it my home. For me, home is wherever I feel loved. Since living in Sacramento, I discover acroyoga, and the acroyoga community is now like my family. Every day I get to play with wonderful people that I love and respect dearly. I cherish the friendships I have and the time they spend with me.

The wonderful thing about being on Steemit is that I have another amazing community to share my stories and thoughts with. Steemit is a great place to meet intelligent folks and I love hearing everyone’s thoughts about life. The best part about Steemit, is I can literally fit you all in my pocket. I’ll never have to feel alone again. I hope to one day attend a Steemit meetup so I can meet my friends in person. For now, Steem on!
Aww Karen, you all have got some serious body control!
Great community!

It can be lonely living away from home but it can also be lonely in your hometown.

Yes it's a great feeling, knowing you can open your laptop, or unlock your phone and start interacting with people on topics that interest you. The number of meet-ups seem to be growing too which i think is great!

Connected is the right word. I wonder how many can connect at all to my post today, it could perhaps connect me with a different community here on Steemit. We shall see.

You can always find people everywhere. Having the internet today helps keep connect to old networks. So when I moved city and country (I have done a number times), I could call upon my old networks for possible connections in the new location. And because they are friends or friends, usually, that means they are like minded people. =)

Yes, this is true. Good people are everywhere. It just takes a little bit of time and effort on your end to get out there and meet them!

I've found it takes about a year to settle in, two years to know a few people, and by the third you have a real social network. I've done it four times now. =)
