Would You Come Visit Me in Houston, Texas, USA?
Living in Houston, Texas, USA for nearly 40 years has been a journey filled with opportunities and experiences. However, there's one question that often comes to mind: would anyone actually make the trip to visit me here in Houston?
For those who might be thinking about taking the leap, let me share my experience and answer a few questions that might help you decide.
My Huston Experience
For the majority of my life, I've been a Texan, living in the Houston area. This city has been my home for nearly four decades, yet I've noticed a curious trend. While people from all over the world love to visit Colorado, they seem to have a harder time making the case to come to Houston.
It's worth noting that I did live in Colorado for six years due to a job transfer. During that time, friends would visit us almost like a regular occurrence. There were at least ten visitors who came to see us, some more than once. However, aside from family, I can't recall a single person who visited just to see us in Houston. This raised an interesting question: what does this tell us?
Why Visit Houston?
With Houston being a diverse and vibrant city, one might wonder, "What makes Houston worth visiting?" Here are some points to consider:
Gulf Coast: Houston is known for its proximity to the Gulf of Mexico, offering beautiful beaches and water activities. Space Center: The city is home to the historic Space Center, where visitors can explore the history of space exploration and even witness rocket launches. Museums: Houston boasts a number of world-class museums, including the Juneteenth National Museum, the Architecture Foundation of Houston, and more. Culture: From annual events like the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo to a diverse culinary scene, there's always something to experience in Houston.Considering a Visit to Houston?
But enough about the city itself. Is this place for you? Let me ask a few more questions to help you decide:
Sex: Are you male or female? Age: How old are you? Marital Status: Are you married?Answering these questions with honesty can give me a better idea of who I would like to meet in Houston. Here's my reasoning:
Smart and Intellectual Company: I tend to enjoy company that is smarter and more thoughtful. Please, let's not dwell on shallow aspects like physical appearance or age. Respect: While I don't particularly enjoy Houston, there's also a limit to how far I can tolerate people. Your attitude and behavior play a significant role in my decision. Cookies (if applicable): And, of course, if there's a chance for some delicious treats, that's always a plus!Think carefully about these questions, and if your answer aligns with what I'm looking for, I might consider a visit. Otherwise, it might be best to explore other destinations that might suit your interests better.
On a final note, if you're considering a trip to Houston, I offer some travel recommendations to help make the most of your visit:
Book in Advance: Houston can get crowded, especially during major events, so be sure to book accommodations and tickets well in advance. Explore Local neighborhoods: Stroll through the vibrant Montrose and Heights areas, which offer a mix of art, culture, and good food. Experience the outdoors: Visit the Buffalo Bayou Park for a peaceful walk or a hike in the nearby wildlife. Enjoy the local cuisine: Don’t miss out on the diverse dining scene, from traditional Texan BBQ to international flavors.Ultimately, whether or not I would visit you in Houston is a personal choice based on your profile and the kind of company I enjoy. Take the time to carefully consider whether this place and my profile would be a good match for you.
