Only way to find out is take a road trip and stay in each place for a week or so. We did this years ago and you know when you found the right place. Of course do your research first and visit the top 5 locations.
What most find is ideally and if you can afford it is two homes. A secluded home and a city home (or beach, etc... whatever you like)
- whalesalad 5y agoGreat advice. Start small with baby steps: car camping, Airbnb’s, or rent a small van/camper and tour around for a while. Don’t rush it - the physical environment is a huge element but you’re also gonna want to agree with the culture and politics of the area, too.
- ghaff 5y agoMy caveat with two homes (besides the obvious cost) is that there is some overhead associated with owning a place--although obviously less in the case of an urban condo--and just generally reduced flexibility. There's something to be said for just renting a place for a month if you want some variety. I agree with your general advice. Also just think about what you're looking for. E.g. there are tradeoffs between more resort-y areas and places more off the beaten track.
