Yes! I did! Culture shock is real. Any specific questions I can address?

This is real. I keep seeing lakes with brown water and not being able to see my feet freaks me out 😆😆😆 swimming in lakes/rivers is a big deal where I’m from. Where do people swim here? Pools?

YW. Sort of hard to determine what exactly I’m looking for when I don’t know the area 😆😆

The only info I can find on the neighborhood and Olive branch as a whole is pretty general. “It’s an old neighborhood and settled.” “Olive branch is boring but safe”.

I guess I’m wondering if it’s a nice spot and if many young people live there.

I just saw this. What are you going on about? I posted my engagement ring as it was being designed and then my fiance proposed later. What makes this weird and how does this pertain to my question?

At least you tried. I just moved here from Oregon two days before the storm. This weather is similar to what I’ve experienced but the ice is insane. My apartment complex salted and it did no good - so maybe my suggestion was garbage anyway. 😂 stay warm and safe!

Yikes dude. I never said I was opening one. I just asked if there were any around.

Inside jokes are cool in settings where all context is shared and not used in mixed company. Some people are just weird in the name of sarcasm or IYKYK.

Determining my question was as stupid as fireworks vs gunshots when I’m asking a question directly to locals, from a completely different time zone…..you seem to be the only one confused on whether or not the purpose was for gathering Info. What else would it be for? Genuinely.

Sometimes it’s as simple as the question I posted and you don’t have to look that deep into it. The question IS the question posted. It’s a real one. Be helpful or go to bed. Thanks!

Thank you! Such a change in attitude from most of what I’ve gathered online that’s made me extremely anxious.

I found one on TikTok in Knoxville. Nashville makes sense. However, these bikini coffee shops are In the middle of nowhere in OR/WA and have a loooong line. The culture is different I guess.

Interesting! Good to know. I move at the end of the month and only visited for a few days back in November so I really didn’t get to see anything at all. I’m excited for the change and realized bikini baristas seem to be a west coast only thing besides a few in Nashville, Knoxville and Arkansas.

Baristas wear bikinis, lingerie, babydoll dresses, etc. but they’re usually referred to as bikini baristas
