As someone who knows they wouldn't want nor enjoy the SV lifestyle, I really feel for the author. Not everyone wants to live in that culture, and we need to remind ourselves that it's OK to want to life live differently from it.

Reading the author's experience returning home, how she felt awakened again, really resonated with me because I had the same experience. After one such trip home to North Carolina, my girlfriend and I - sitting in the SFO terminal - started looking at NC houses, just to see. Three weeks later we closed on our home. The valley culture isn't for everyone.
