One of my favorite movies was Jim Carey’s The Truman Show. I thought it was such a cute and touching movie. The life lived in that movie was very simple, quiet and relaxed. Something that is on the other end of the spectrum from my current life. Because that life depicted in The Truman Show was so different from my every day life, I was extremely excited to visit Seaside, FL (not too far from Destin, FL) where the movie was shot.
Normally when I vacation, I am in a popular hotel or resort. This trip, I decided to try something different and I was pleasantly surprised with white picket fences, a town square, bicycle rentals and ice cream shops. I not only stepped out of Nashville, TN, but I seemed to have also stepped out the year 2012.
I found myself thinking that I could live in this three-story, five-bedroom home, called See Ya, with an elevator and an incredible view of the ocean, huge gourmet kitchen and several outdoor sitting areas that is perfect for my morning cup of White Chocolate Mocha Espresso from Amavida Coffee.
The house was clean, nicely decorated and perfectly positioned for me to walk every where I needed to go during my stay. I ate at The Shrimp Shack where they had awesome seafood and they made me feel at home with a picture of the Tennessee Titans Cheerleaders on their wall. Go Titans!
I travel many places and stay at many hotels all over the world and there are not many places that I am not ready to go home. Seaside took me to a time where things were simple and beautiful. From the atmosphere and decor inside the house to the atmosphere and spirit of the town, I took nothing for granted. Everyone can find peace in this town–from couples, to family reunions, multi-generational groups and business groups, there is something for everyone.


Thank you for sharing about this information. That's nice and interesting, I like it.
