I'm a retired university professor with 2 adult children. My son lives in the Ybor section of Tampa and my daughter lives in Seminole Heights I grew up in Southern California but moved to Tampa over 40 years ago and love it here. Until I came to Tampa I had never lived anywhere longer than 8 years. So, if you ask me where I'm from, I ask you to define "from." Having been born in Upstate NY, grew up in California, graduated from HS in Ohio and came here from Michigan. So, where am i from??? I usually say wherever my suitcase is sitting. LOL
