Bend is beautiful but a little too isolated. How much of your dissatisfaction do you think is due to that aspect? Vs living somewhere in the Portland area, for example, where you still have decent access to the outdoor activities but also more people / other things to do.

Certainly a good portion. There are many weekends where my husband and I will go to brunch and then literally can’t figure out what the hell else to do with our Sunday. If we aren’t in the mood for a hike and there are no interesting events going on in town, there’s little to nothing else to do. We usually end up going to Target… like that’s an attraction lol 🤦‍♀️

I think another big part of my dissatisfaction is that I miss my friends and family, and east coast energy in general. And the food. Aside from some good Mexican good, I don’t like the food scene here.
