Thank you for posting this complimentary video. It's nice to see people from outside of Jacksonville that recognize the beauty of our City and know how to take advantage of the recreational opportunities that many local residents ignore. So glad that you enjoyed your visit.
Out of all the Jacksonville Vlogs your is 100,000,000 times the best. You made me laugh and smile the whole way thru. Your commentary was impeccable. The fact that you got your dude to be apart if ya vlog was lit. Im going to Jville this weekend. I want to do a vlog as well! Wish me luck!
Jars Shew I’m moving back to Jax this month. I left in 18 and I wished I never did. I was born in a landlocked state and I don’t like that. Love the water and I love how big it is. You can literally get lost. Not like unsure of direction but u probably won’t “run into” ppl u may not want to unless you live on the same street/area/neighborhood. It’s huge. Great economy. Logistics capital of America. Cost of living is great compared to down south (Miami etc). Big Navy base in Jax too. No state taxes!!!!!!!!!
So far my favorite things are the cost of living, the water, and the proximity to activities galore. There's so many nature trails and state and national parks within 30 minutes of me, the springs are amazeballs, and the weather is second to none. I spent most of my life in Missouri. We're cold six months of the year and the summers can actually be hotter than north Florida summers and just as humid. You don't get much time to be outdoors because it's just miserable.
Omg.... the water at the beach is so warm. I was tripping. The seafood was so amazing. I went over board. My cholesterol was sky high when I return to New York.
As a Jacksonville resident, i understand the sentiment. The city is really terribly managed. I honestly think the perspective is about where you come from. I think when you move from outside of Florida it's easier to appreciate Jacksonville. I have a friend in Hollywood Beach and I love visiting down there so I understand why you'd rather be there
@@DivoCapella I wish I moved to Atlanta when I was a teenager when it wasn't as overpopulated. I love the fact that it's a city where black people tend to flourish and be great. I have friends trying to get me to move there as we speak actually. So between there, Jacksonville and Charlotte are my choices. Jacksonville is just an easy transfer with my job.
thank you for sharing this. You shared some things I didn't know from my research that I thought was cool (animal place). (greetings from Oregon). I love the beach scene. I grew up near the beach of Hawthorne, CA and moved to Oregon in the 80's til now and my family is looking to move to FL for many reason and those waves looks great for boogieboarding.
Downtown really is a cool place to park and just walk around. Even when I was a teenager I used to run around downtown and the landing. RIP landing btw.
Thanks for this! We are moving to Jacksonville from Oregon. I’m actually going down this week to check out different areas! Looks like there’s PLENTY to do!
Nice vlog, i bought my house here in jax 3 years ago and I’m still trying to get used to living here 😭 I come from San Diego so it’s definitely different I’m giving it some more time before i move back 🙊
So I am really thinking about moving here. I remember driving past it on my way to Cocoa Beach, FL. It’s very pretty. Some people say it’s boring…I assume because it’s more of a family oriented city…not for singles or people who prefer the limelight. What’s your intake?
Honestly it depends on what you like to do. We enjoyed it however we don’t drink or really go out like that we just kinda chill all the time lol so I can’t speak on the side of life, however it was a nice and clam place where we went!
Ashley you and your husband are beautiful (physically and your spirit). If you have children they will be bless with some of the best genes one could ask for.
Your husband is so cute doing the Riverwalk! Congratulations on your anniversary! Okay so what is the name of that River? Is that a river that one can swim and kayak in? Thinking of taking a job there but they want me to commit to permanent transfer versus testing it out. So also wanted to know about the humidity in Jacksonville. Also are there bike trails or walking trails?
Wow I live and Jacksonville 8 years and I didn't know there was half the things to do here. Except the beaches..lol... now I'm about to move....🙄 this was a very good blog, making me reconsider my move....lol
ASHLEY RENEE I have been looking everywhere for if but I can’t seem to find it so I am not sure if she took the listing down, I’m sorry, but we stayed in the St. John’s Town Center are and it’s really nice around there so that’s where I would start. I hope this helps!
Sahil Nath hey sorry for the late response and I can’t remember exsacly but there was a fogo de chao walking distance from it! It was a really nice area
Now, I'm pretty sure that's one of those "animal sanctuaries" where they are technically taking the animals from people who are giving them up, but they keep them in really tiny cages and not at all what a rescue facility or a zoo would do. There's one near my house in Florida and it's the same deal. It's a real problem. There are tons of these places all over and we need to find a way to warm people to not give their money to these places. They do not treat the animals well. In the one near my house, a bear was just sitting in a very small enclosure holding on to the cage and rubbing his head back and forth across the bars. He had a big bald spot and welt on his whole forehead because he had obviously been doing this for YEARS!! 😱 AND LITERALLY NO ONE CARED.
It’s interesting seeing my hometown from a tourist’s perspective
Right! I have lived here almost 20 years and never looked at Jax like this.
i know its crazy

Yes, we love it! It's always fun to visit another place and really look into what you can do there and Jacksonville did not disappoint.

I moved here almost a year ago, I don't regret it for a second!
Yeah, it is so amazing, sorry for the late response lol it slipped through the system! I can't wait to move near a beach one day!
What’s your favoriting thing about living here?

Coco Monday excellent information! that all sounds amazing. Wishing you the best of luck on your homecoming!

innocentloyal haha same we really enjoyed it, it was so beautiful!
😅😅😅💯
😂😂 amazing vlog!! I didn’t know there was so much to do in Jacksonville!
DUUUVAL!!! Welcome to Jacksonville
Thank you! We can't wait to come back and visit!
I moved to Jacksonville from S. Florida , and I personally think I made a big mistake. The only positive is cost of living is lower , but it sucks.

I moved here from Atlanta 2 years ago i hate it so much im movin back to Atlanta very soon!
Why do you hate it? If you don't mind me asking.
Trey wolf, I’ve been living in Atlanta and can’t stand it...what don’t you like about Jax that you like about Atlanta?
Diyah Ambi i dont even know where to start. Ive moved back to Atlanta since then
LilMsLorelei im from Atlanta. I moved back to Atlanta a month ago. I hate everything about Jacksonville. That city just sucks

john wayne I’m glad you loved it and not only boogie boarding it is a huge surfing community so you will really enjoy it!
Glad to see others can appreciate charm and beautiful city Jacksonville Florida.
Yes, I loved it!
Downtown really is a cool place to park and just walk around.
Even when I was a teenager I used to run around downtown and the landing.
RIP landing btw.

Sahil Nath hey sorry for the late response and I can’t remember exsacly but there was a fogo de chao walking distance from it! It was a really nice area

I am so sorry I don't remember, and for some reason, I can't find it on my airbnb history.
@@ashleysonyea Thanks anyway!
i feel like you should try living here and still see if you like it also you wont like it
Did you ever move here? looking for collabs
Norman Family no we did not, just came for a vacation.
Okay boyfriend slash bodyguard...beautiful couple..beautiful energy. 💕
Thank you 💕
Jacksonville FL is so boring absolutely nothing to do. Jacksonville is literally south Georgia. Go Orlando and South or to Atlanta
No disrespect to your dude but you’re gorgeous. Thanks for the vid
Yeah if you have movie night and have to kill time you know the city is a complete bore.
