More ppl should consider San Diego:

• Access to Mexico-TJ borders
• 8th most largest city in US
• Solid food, music, art scene
• Great beaches everywhere
What else am I missing?

Petco park is sick in the postseason.
San Diego has no NFL team, no NBA team, no NHL team, and the biggest college is San Diego State.
This is an MLB town. The Padres are this city and their crowd is so sick to watch.
Great to be back at my alma mater yesterday

Interviewed Kevin back in 2024.
He was scaling his company @epicgardening + running a fast-growing @YouTube channel w/ 2M+ subscribers.
2 years later, he now has 4M+ on YT and collaborating with former US President @BarackObama on gardening content.
You can just do things.
I'm stoked to announce an EPIC collab with the @ObamaFoundation - a FULL tour of the new garden landscapes at the upcoming Obama Center and a conversation with President Obama!
Myself and a few other awesome creators sat down with the President to speak about the philosophy behind the center, and of course I had a few questions about the garden spaces...
First off, from a raw gardening approach, it's awesome to see a civic project put edible gardens front and center.
The Eleanor Roosevelt Fruit & Vegetable Garden being a true standout and aptly named, as Mrs. Roosevelt championed Victory Gardens, which provided up to 40% of our produce during WWII.
But even techniques like "nurse logs,” where they used logs from trees felled during construction to inoculate fresh soil with the local microbial flora, to me, showcased an advanced approach to garden spaces, all of which I'm excited to share with you in an upcoming video.
The center is OPEN and ready for you to check it out. If you're in the area, I recommend stopping by 🇺🇸
Fun time at the horse track today
