where i live is amazing , its 20 min away from the capital of the U.S, The president is in my backyard. I am equal distant from the beautiful national harbor as well. My localized area is very convenient with shopping and restaurants.

The Summer's are blistering hot and the winters are freezing cold, but the fall and the spring seasons have the absolute most perfect weather that is just right to go outside and enjoy. Natural disasters are not an issue here, they are pretty uncommon but it is good to be prepared with some basics such as shovels. The most essential item of my wardrobe is a light jacket.
