SHELL SHOCK - Moving from a Northern state to Florida

- There are so many differences when moving from a northern state to Florida. So many in fact that you can become overwhelmed. It is like a whole new world. Do you really live here, or is this just a vacation? When we moved to Florida, we were "shell shocked". Everything was so much different than what we were used to. Tonight Lindsey and I sat down and discussed some of the things that made us feel that way.

Making snowmen freezing to death or stuck inside no sun for wks winters just fricken depressing. Love Florida
Once yet again you two are hitting the spot,I'm from Upstate New York and the cold really hurts at age 54....
This resonates with me also. I'm 54 living in upstate NY and the cold is killing me.
Just moved to Orlando area with my mom great channel y'all so informational and helpful
You guys and your channel is awesome. Wanna leave PA and and move down asap! All your videos are super helpful. Thank you
Your videos are awesome! We’re in the beginning stages of making the transition to Florida from Philadelphia. My wife and I plan to by down there at the end of 2021, or early 2022. I’m in law enforcement and I’m gonna make sure I find employment before we move. Your videos have really helped us and have definitely eased the tensions or making such a big move! Thanks 😊
So glad I found this channel for our move from north to Florida.I remember in the 80s at 20 yrs old moving first time ever from North to Texas 980 miles away from everyone I knew and family it was like a culture shock it does take a little bit to adjust to new surroundings and boy did I ever get homesick but we both adjusted nicely
Sorry to hear that you haven't gotten the right doctors as of yet.
I was at Clearwater beach and the performers asked who was visiting and 95% of people were visiting.
Down Torn! You guys are hilarious! lol!!! Thanks for the shout out! lol
@@FloridaWithFive Big shout out to @Eric Evolving as I learned about your channel through him.
Hi kids. Thanks for the video. I learn something every time I watch them. Lindsey, you look so cute. We are making our first vacation trip to Tampa, Sarasota and Cape Corsl in April. So excited. Hoping to move there in four years when we retire🏝☀️
I’m wanting to make the transition from Nashville to the Tampa area next summer and I’m glad I have videos like these to help me make my decision.
We are having problems finding a good family doctor here too. Your content is getting better and better. Please keep it up. You all deserve it!
@@FloridaWithFive LMAO!!!
Guys this was a great vlog with excellent perspective and delivery: So natural, honest, enlightening and true. I remember when I was on the other side of things, when we came down to visit my parents and we were the ones who had to go back. Well....NOT ANYMORE!! That last Thanksgiving trip on the road back, we were like, that's it. We're selling the house. By the way, we just celebrated our 1 year down here, so right there with you. Really enjoyed this:)
@@FloridaWithFive Guys that means everything to me, thanks so much!!!
It’s so nice to see you here barefoot!
Remember me when your channel is big I’ve been following since April of 2019😂
Florida With Five Thank you! Your videos have always been fun to watch, but I like how you guys are more consistent with uploads compared to a year ago. I have definitely noticed your subscribers going up since then. Thanks for the reply and keep up the great videos👌
The jobs and the job market in general was the first thing I noticed. In the northeast people work food service or a grocery store as a starter job. In FLA people are doing them as careers I see middle aged people at Publix. They had a Wawa job fair the other day near me
Winters sucks even more when you have kids under the age of 8 and it gets dark at 4pm and freezing cold days! I heard the FLA Summers are bad but I take that over the cold any day!
Me too!!
Why is it that way? Where I live you go in and get blood work then sit in waiting room for a bit then you see the doctor and go over the results... In and out about an hour...
i completely understand about the medical stuff. my SO had a kidney transplant and has to get routine blood work and up north he could go anytime to the hospital (they had standing order) and get his blood work drawn. we moved from NY to SC and were shocked to find out the transplant doctors here will not see him because they didnt do the transplant. The nephrologist is not comfortable treating him so we are still trying to work that out. definitely frustrating.
Not sure how I found you two, but so glad I did. Keep it going.
Love your channel! I'd like to know all about critters, lol! Alligators (are they in the ocean often?) , spiders, lizards, snakes - walking at night are you wary of them, are you afraid to let your kids run around freely outside because of them, anything else poisonous … The other concern is sinkholes. Thanks!
welcome
Watching this now great video 👍
Thank you!!!
I will have a lot of those rush moments because my husbands parents are moving to Florida before we do and my parents are staying in Ohio. I will be calling or texting them all the time and wanting them to come visit at least once a year.
What do you think of the Tampa area?
I love this! I am originally from New York, I’ve lived in Orlando several times and I’m planning my move back in two months! It’s so amazing the staggering differences between the north and south. Another one then I’m not sure Wisconsin might have, is that in New York it’s impolite to call someone ma’am it’s sarcastic versus in the south it’s a form of politeness for seniority? Have you guys experienced this?
You guys are great people. I'm from NY and want to move down there. I need to over come my fears to move there.
@@FloridaWithFive Thank you. Excellent points. I'm happy for you all. Your such good people..
Godbless You 🙏
Literally the same, I'm from NY and want to move down there. Tired of the winters and crazy taxes here. What part of Florida are you looking into?
@@SteveMusic1000 Hi. I'm looking to move to. Tarpon Springs if I can. Same with me. The NY taxes and weather are a drag. I need a change of scenery too.
We're also in New York and planning our move for next Summer...
Me too! I m from Ohio and am thinking bout moving down next summer but I am so scared, never been anywhere but here. I am most scared about money and the bugs.
Wisconsin!!! (I just heard that in that 70's show sound in my head). Native Flitters, ROFL. In Texas we have 10 pleasant months to be outside, and then we hide indoors in July and August. at 9:30 in the video, all I could think was...... STOP, she's going to deck you. Florida drivers are pretty crazy.
Lol she did give me “that look”, didn’t she?!
I’m ready to move
You make me nervous about the doctor situation. Other than that do you have a video of how to get a job down there?
Hey guys I wanna say that I am your guys first like for this video. Lol. Anyway I have a question. Since you guys left so sudden, did you sell your home or do you still own it and your family back home is handling that for you?
Florida With Five
Oh wow ok smart move. Thank you for the info just trying to get ideas or tips. We have to put ours up in the near future and that might be a move I can make rather than move in with the in-law 🤷🏽♂️😊
From Boston to Wichita. Yeah, I get it. Maybe I can't see the end of the earth from here but I bet if I stand on a beer can I could.
What city you guys come from in Wisconsin?
There are so many transplants from the NYC and NorthEast that hopefully won't make me feel like too much of an outsider
your light behind you was changing...
My 16 yr old wants to move to Florida for college, but I think she will think it’s vacation! Would LOVE to go eat at Disney! It would be pricey! I think I would gain crazy weight! Interviews can go like that in Utah. I wonder if that hospital has to send everything out. Depending on the hospital in Utah, it could take that long, I’m a nurse practitioner, I do get it we get our labs within hours. At Disney for sure mostly tourists!
Florida With Five I hope you find something that works for you, you need good health care!
Now there back in Wisconsin
Now there back in Florida
Actually I live in Rhode Island and I’ve had to go to a different lab a few times when I had to get blood work but idk why it’s like that lol
Florida With Five It is pretty silly , I just wanted to thank you guys for your awesome videos they’re really really helping me plan my move to Florida !! Thank you for the great info
Born and raised in a military family moving all around the south and could never make life long friends it could be worse
CRABBY BILLS. INDIAN ROCKS BEACH
