It is understandable why
California attracts a lot of
people. There it is warm and
sunny most part of the year,
Los Angeles is full of movie
stars, rollerblading babes can
be found all over the place in
Venice Beach. Even if it is
exaggerated, this part of the
California mystique is real
and not very hard to find.
But California has other
things too, that are not
scripted, sanitized, and
broadcast to the mesmerized
masses of the world. The
glitter and glamour are only
the surface of an incredibly
diverse state that would be a
productive and powerful nation
in the event of ever getting
separated from the Union.
California has it all: redwood
forests, an incredibly verdant
Central Valley, the Sierra
Nevada, deserts, a lot of
well-known cities, and
hundreds of miles of beautiful
coastline.
Despite the crime,
pollution, traffic, and
earthquakes, which have made
California famous as well,
people here are still the
golden children of the United
States, America's spoiled rich
kid that is either loved or
loathed by everyone. (In
Oregon, for example, they sell
lots of license-plate rims
stating "I hate
California.") To be
perfectly sincere, people here
don’t really care.
Californians are aware of the
fact that they live in one of
the most interesting places in
the world, and they're proud
of their state. Nobody can
guarantee you that you'll meet
Arnold Schwarzenegger or learn
how to surf here, but with a
little time, a little money,
and an adventurous spirit, you
will be guided by us and
offered one of the most
fulfilling vacations of your
life. The four of us do
nothing but travel, but we
chose to live in California
because this place has so much
to offer.
