You should have your family come to SD for holidays instead. After they visit, they might even move here and then you never have to worry about holiday travel again!

I know right! But the travel expenses are a little much for my family, especially with the holidays around the corner.

Not this year, but I've had plenty of years where I spent the entire day before Thanksgiving either in airports or on a plane. Not fun, but worth it to spend time with family. Hang in there!

Staying home this year as well and so happy I don’t have to fly to the east coast for the holidays… pro tip do a longish trip in October (nice fall weather, no big holidays around it so less expensive, close enough to big holidays not to merit another trip back 🙃)

Ugh! Traveling at this time of the year is the worst! Luckily I was able to WFH, so I traveled a week earlier, and I will be leaving a week after the holidays.

Yup! I have 2 hours on the plane to mentally prepare myself for the "you gained weight" comments and the "do you have a boyfriend" questions.

Staying home as well for thanksgiving. But I sure am coming home for Christmas. Most probably booking an afternoon flight as well. I still got so much work to do.

NOPE! Going the week after. Rather do turkey day on my own or a Friendsgiving than brave the airport lol

My brother is also coming home from New York. This is not the best time to travel but we gotta do what we gotta do. Take care!

So, this is a little awkward, but I recently moved to SD for a fresh start, and honestly, I love this city. My problem is I have been more of a homebody since I moved here and I'm a little intimidated to go out and meet people because I don't feel like I fit in here. I am overweight and this city is full of active, and attractive people. I guess I am wondering what my experience would be if I got out more? I feel like people look at me when I'm in public because I stand out due to my size.
