Stories From the East Coast - Highlights of Coast
I am originally from Ontario. I met my husband in Toronto, who is originally from Abrams River, NS (by Yarmouth). When he first brought me home to meet his family, I was blown away by the beauty of the ocean, beaches, food (fresh seafood!!), and, most of all, the people. I have never felt so at home, and I told him that when we retire, we are moving here. But hey, why wait? We decided to move here 4 years ago, and I am so in love with the East Coast. I grew up in a small town where people helped you out without even having to ask. But when I moved to Toronto, people were much more guarded and suspicious if you just said "hi". However, that is so not the case here on the East Coast. Everyone says "hi", and everyone is there to lend you a hand, even if you didn't ask or need help! Highlights for me so far are Cape Breton, Tusket Falls Brewery, super fresh lobsters, scallops, and haddock, and beachcombing. I'm looking forward to continuing my East Coast journey!Story by Tom
Stories From the East Coast - All the Things I Miss
One of the things I love about home is friends and family; they are always there to support you in life. That is something I miss since I currently live in Alberta. An interesting thing about living in Alberta is wearing East Coast clothing here. You never know when you will bump into someone from back home. It's like a family reunion that happens wherever you meet. I first found out about East Coast Lifestyle from Facebook, and it began a new way of life. Representing my coast, well, no one can ever say that people from the East Coast aren't amazing. They are always ready to say "hello" at the drop of a hat or willing to help you out if possible. I live here the same way as if I were back home. I am not sure if I will ever move back, but family, friends, the salty air, fish and chips, leaves changing color in the fall, and the beaches—those are the things I miss. So, wearing ECL clothing is a reminder of all those things I miss.- Story by Shawn
