It is generally easy to do a relocation if you are going to a larger office which has a lot of projects, so places like Mountain View, New York, Seattle/Kirkland, Zurich are pretty straightforward. If I wanted to relocate to a smaller office I would need to spend some time figuring out what I would be able to do there, but it can definitely be done.Matt Welshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07077674014671176946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186457242428335144.post-66872418715615074832011-08-02T10:35:39.959-07:002011-08-02T10:35:39.959-07:00Thanks for all the Boston food recos, Matt!Thanks for all the Boston food recos, Matt!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186457242428335144.post-86082529486026389102011-08-02T03:49:50.952-07:002011-08-02T03:49:50.952-07:00Hi Matt,

I love mountains and being so close to them would overweight any number of rainy days for me.<br /><br />Do you have any idea if you can change your mind after some time working and move to a different city where there is an office?Steven Liuhttp://www.google.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186457242428335144.post-39996016232670020912011-08-01T21:04:58.500-07:002011-08-01T21:04:58.500-07:00Anon re: food in Boston -- Boston has an awesome f...Anon re: food in Boston -- Boston has an awesome food scene, though it took me years to find some of the best places.<br /><br />Sichuan - my favorite is Chili Garden in Medford, though Sichuan Garden is great too. Zoe's in Somerville was my local and also excellent.<br /><br />Mexican - Taqueria el Amigo in Waltham, very much a hole in the wall joint, but worth the drive out there. Angela's Cafe in Eastie is amazing too.<br /><br />Indian - I love Pongal in Billerica, amazing South and North Indian buffet, very authentic.<br /><br />Some others: Rod Dee does excellent Thai. Floating Rock in Revere was incredible Cambodian. Fasika in Somerville is the best Ethiopian place in town. Shiraz in Watertown is my favorite little Persian place.Matt Welshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07077674014671176946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186457242428335144.post-19735075090496512742011-08-01T10:31:34.527-07:002011-08-01T10:31:34.527-07:00Hey, Matt, El Camino in Fremont is our favorite Me...Hey, Matt, El Camino in Fremont is our favorite Mexican food in Seattle. Also, you might try hanging out in Capitol Hill, where we live, which has great bars and restaurants and more diversity.Greg Lindenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09216403000599463072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186457242428335144.post-77748186295233684832011-08-01T07:08:51.745-07:002011-08-01T07:08:51.745-07:00Matt, you seem to be a foodie, so I'll ask: wh...Matt, you seem to be a foodie, so I'll ask: what are your favorite places in Boston, any cuisine? For Sichuan, I like Sichuan garden in brookline, but haven't found particularly good Mexican or Indian here.

In my mind, I used to substitute the green for the lack of bright sun, and the snow (particularly Mt Baker) for the lack of beach.Johnhttp://www.technologyisdead.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186457242428335144.post-2339657800150428102011-07-31T22:42:46.565-07:002011-07-31T22:42:46.565-07:00And no state income tax. :-)And no state income tax. :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
