The pleasant weather of California and the opportunity of the Silicon Valley just another element to drawn people to move here in Golden State. In additional, there are many tourism spots that make the people who live here proud. Also, lure many outsider wanting for a visit. But it does have disadvantages especially with tax that we paid.
I do notice that people tense to mooch with us for the reason coming for a visit or visits. There are many so call long lost friends, family members or relatives will start reaching out for the connection as they knew there are planing for visiting.
In the past, I got a very bad experience as my brother friend that I didn't know him much contacted me as he is in town for his business trip. Guess what he brought his six others friends that I did not know at all for the dinner as well. Oh joy! What frustrated was I end up paid the entire bill. Gees, when I was visiting my home town and just happened that he also visiting my brother at home. He not even said 'hi' to me. That really ticks me off. Though some of them will come up with a polite way to ask for recommendation of car rental, hotels and etc. But hey I get it though
I am not anti social but we do have our own agenda for weekend especially long work week. Just simply want to whine down low and just two of us rather. So, this is my theory if you are traveling then expect spending, respect the privacy to who are you going to meet and be independent.
