Cities I have lived in

People who meet me soon realize that I have lived in many places. Why? Basically because I have been roaming ö this great country of ours gathering information so as to make your life easier. I hope to give you some of my opinions about these cities, and then you can decide where you want to live!

I spent most of my years up until the age of 21 in Providence, Rhode Island. It's not a bad town, especially if you enjoy walking. If I ever get homesick, I can just look up the latest news in the Providence Journal. My mother is a great cook, and you might enjoy seeing six of my favorite recipes.
Following college, I moved to Chapel Hill, NC to attend dental school. Chapel Hill is sometimes called "the southern part of heaven". Why? Because it is very beautiful there. Why else?
In 1987, I spent a year in the City of Lakes, Minneapolis. Now that is a great city. I especially enjoyed living right near three different lakes. I have also lived in New Jersey.    I won't say anything about New Jersey, because I was taught if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all. Houston, Texas was a really fun city to live in. There are many great restaurants there.


Other personal information...

Favorite sports teams include: University of North Carolina Basketball
Boston Red Sox New England Patriots
I currently drive a 1997 Volvo 850. I bought it used, and I like it because I don't have to spend much money on it.
