moving across the country to a state I’d never been to and a city in which I knew nobody
As someone who did just this, but in kinda the opposite direction: from the East Coast to Minneapolis, I hope it works out for you as well as it has for me. I basically rebuilt myself here. I love MN!
Me too! CT to Boston, admittedly not as big a move but where I lived was practically Nowhere, USA. There's so much energy here and Boston has exceeded all my expectations. I'm now working at my third startup here.
Since January. Laid off from the first along with most people there, and the second one shut down literally the week I started working. But hey, technology moves fast and so do startups. They have to. I'm actually grateful since it's given me three entirely different viewpoints into how startups work.
