I'm Trying to Find a Place to Live...

Something that shall protect me from the hot, Los Angeles sun.

So far, it's not going great. Granted, I only officially started my search today, not much was accomplished other than finding out where I don't want to live (which is Wilshire).

However, in my random explorations today, I drove through Echo Park and Silver Lake, two neighborhoods I'd pondered living in before I moved out here. I think I'll refine my search in these areas to see what I can see. After all, it couldn't hurt, plus, the vibe of those neighborhoods really resonate with me.

Though, the vibe I'm really diggin' is in Marina Del Rey. It's so relaxed out there. Everyone's got a dog. Every cute girl's got a cute bike. And every jeep's got a surfboard on top. It's a bit of a hike from Hollywood, which is a bummer, but then again, it's closer than the valley.

Ultimately, it's East vs. West (as always). Silver Lake and it's adjacent "hipster" neighborhoods on the East side, or the beach bum lifestyle of Marina Del Rey/Venice Beach of the West side.

Decisions, decisions...
