"One of my favorite things about being here is how, even though it's a fairly small town — at least for me because I grew up in the cities — it has a lot of diversity within itself. I think that's great in a sense that people of different interests, of different cultures, can come and still find their niche here by sort of looking towards people who share the same experiences or similar interests."
