why i left los angeles

[@laurenpeters.mp4]

you can change your hair, you can change your clothes, you can change your mind, that’s just the way it goes. you can say goodbye, and you can say hello; but you’ll always find your way back home

[@brigidashe-moore2943]

because i wassssss just about to say that and like i have kind of always said that

[@nmv0714]

literally was omw to say the same thing.

[@jesslland]

'you literally can wake up one day and do whatever you want' louder for the people in the back !!!! wishing you all the luck & love in the world sally darr xxx

[@emilythomas9183]

The bit at the end about “wondering” was really beautiful. Thank you for sharing this!

[@haley4855]

I cannot wait for Atlanta in the fall content. Super happy for you, Sally Darr!

[@modestpleasures]

Sorry you feel you even had to justify your decision to some. What better reason than ‘because my heart desired it’? That’s so humanizing (in typically Sally Darr fashion), props for putting yourself first!

[@JoshDare]

This was super cool and interesting to hear, thank you for sharing Sally Darr!! Good luck on the next chapter!

[@prettysoyboy]

love a sit down moment from The Sally Darr

[@carissaghoul]

This was trippy but reassuring as someone who recently decided to move 1,400 miles away when my lease ends next year. I have said so many of the things you said in this video word for word. I fully agree that wondering “what if?” is way worse than doing the damn thing and realizing it wasn’t the right choice. And even if that happens, it’s nothing to regret! I hope you feel fully at home in atl ❤

[@Katherout]

truly inspirational and makes me so nostalgic for when i decided to move to seattle ! i luv atlanta and ppl leaving first cities it’s free thinker behavior

[@amohamoud3992]

kath and sally darr collab?! i love u both 😘

[@samanthanorman6508]

Proud of you miss sally darr, doing what you want to do is what matters most!!!! I will still be here watching vlogs whether you’re here or in LA. Now after this vlog…. You should start a podcast

[@KatherineDeck]

I just left LA after 3 years and moved back to the east coast near my family! proud of u

[@ssshreyya]

so excited to see where your new adventures take you, sally darr!!!!! 🫶🏼

[@VictoriaLyman]

sally darr this was so beautifully spoken!! I cannot wait to see all of your adventures in ATL!!

[@julie230397]

I love your videos, and I think it was obvious from watching you since your first trip in England that you will be moving out of LA. I am glad you did it ! Very excited for your next videos in Atlanta !

[@kellygraham9985]

You're gonna feel so rooted and in community - I had a very similar experience moving back home to Texas after living in Boston for 8 years. Excited for you!!!

[@kdee24]

oh this is so comforting and reassuring as someone who just moved with so many people questioning my decision and me just telling them I did it because I wanted to!

[@RF-tr2ji]

Thanks for sharing SDG ❤ u are a great example of doing what’s right based on how you feel. Film school wasn’t for you so you left. Most people just continue on even though it’s not right. Sometimes it’s harder to call it

[@maramcbane4505]

Sally Darr I am so excited for you!! So inspiring and makes me excited for my own future.

[@tessalane6355]

I grew up in NC, moved to Alabama, went to college in Mississippi & moved to Texas about 2 years ago knowing it’s not going to be my forever. Moving around is honestly a lot of fun and teaches you a lot about people and yourself. Don’t know where I’ll end up, but excited for the ride!! Proud of you SDG!!!!!!! Loved your LA content & excited for the new!!!!

[@AdumbWillSun]

excited for ms bug and this new chapter!! you’re livin life to its damn fullest and that’s beautiful!

[@selin2602]

I am so excited to see what life is like in Atlanta through your vlogs!

[@lexjustlivin]

I lived in LA for 15 years and in April 2022 I decided I wanted to move back to Atlanta, I thought about it for like a month and by June 2022 I had sold my condo, shipped my car and moved back. One of the best choices I ever made. Both an overnight and a 15 year long decision

[@heathpie5678]

Love this!! I’ve moved around a lot too and it’s always a gut feeling that eventually pulls you in the right directions

[@sarahshallot]

I have moved from Northern California, to Southern California, to Texas, and now to Oregon in the last 4 years, and it really is so freeing to just pick up and move somewhere else! (And Oregon is my favorite by far, so it works out in the end!!)

[@BronwynAlexandriaa]

I think moving and experiencing new places/people is one of the greatest values in life.

[@morganobriens]

oh my god bug nation

[@maybear.mp3]

this helped me as someone who is moving in a month after 7 years in my current city!

[@kellybelly104]

So happy for u bug!!! Excited for the next chapter!

[@ClaireKantz]

i’m moving to london in 3 weeks and I needed this affirmation of do it to stop wondering, love this for you sally darr

[@emmabaker934]

Thank you Sally Darr for sharing the intricacies of being a girl in her twenties! It’s hard to decide any big decisions when it’s all on you, but that’s also the joy and freedom. Keep being an inspo in living life fully for yourself

[@sh-fe2zn]

So excited for you, sdg!! Looking forward to Atlanta vlogs :)

[@annagrace201]

Happy to see you miss sally darr!!!!

[@lilcheeseheadgirl]

you're brave sally darr and you inspire me!!

[@sarahobrien8114]

really loved to hear your thoughts and journey, Sally Darr!

[@wontonsrock]

Thank you for putting into words so well EXACTLY how I have been feeling the past year as I have decided to move from california to the midwest where I am from. I seriously love your videos. Good luck in your next chapter and I am so happy we get to follow along!!

[@ellkatt2010]

I just kind of impulsively moved from my hometown Atlanta to LA because I graduated college lol I'm so excited about SoCal

[@genesafree]

So proud of you Sally Darr for following your gut and intuition, not everybody follows that call. It’s so clear that you’re meant to be there and I’m sure the universe will reward you

[@jillyjo]

love you Sally Darr

[@tessa7463]

so excited for this new chapter for bug nation!

[@shbeebop]

I love Atlanta!! I lived there for 25 years and just moved 2 years ago :) it’s a great city - definitely get the wings at The Local and visit the garden at the Presidential Library!

[@cinnabun11]

I’m looking forward to your Atlanta vlogs! I, on the other hand, feel somewhat stuck in Atlanta and don’t know how to make it fun for myself. Hoping to find some ideas through your vlogs!

[@loubunny1]

i’m so excited for you sally darr! very proud of you for following your heart, most people are too afraid to ever chase their desires. I’m certain you’ll have a great time and learn a lot! can’t wait for the ATL vlogs esp as someone who’s considered moving there myself lol

[@lizzydavis497]

so excited for this next chapter! love exploring new places through your vlogs

[@catherine233]

oh SDG this was beautiful. we’re all out here figuring out our own path and you are paving yours ❤

[@rosies9362]

I’m an nc girl and had the opportunity to move to la like eight years ago. I honestly didn’t even realize how much I loved North Carolina until I pictured myself leaving.

[@MadelineCanter]

So happy you’re happy sally darr !! From one atlanta girl to another

[@morganjohnston1378]

This came at a perfect time I’m moving to new Hampshire and it’s so bittersweet

[@hannahjones7778]

you have the best voice i could listen to you talk for hours on end

[@olivia-gc8dj]

so excited for you miss sally darr and can’t wait for the atlanta vlogs

[@becca5016]

i am so excited for this new era for you!!!! sally darr in atlanta lets gooooooo

[@karahorne30]

Sally Darr this is perfection. I’m about to move to Ireland to study abroad for the semester and this has steadied my mind so much

[@HeyHeyCaseyRae]

Well I just discovered you a few weeks ago and I'm very excited you're in Atlanta, as someone from Georgia 🙌

[@BronwynAlexandriaa]

I get it lol I moved to Nashville to get out of Texas and I miss Texas SO much. Although I’m wanting to see more. I want to try another place now lol

[@alskdkfjghd]

Yup. I moved in March to a new city across the country from my family. There’s nothing inherently wrong with the city, but I know it’s just not for me. I can’t wait for my lease to be up so I can move back to be closer to my family. Having to plan out flights to go home is horrible. For me it’s also so annoying to not be able to see my family unless I get vacation from work. At least if I lived within driving distance I could go home for a weekend to see my mom. As I get older I’m more worried about what happens as my family gets older. I don’t want to be a 5 hour flight away from them.

[@ebenezer_visuals]

welcome to Atlanta, queen! Would LOVE to hear about your experience working on a boat in the Caribbean!

[@mirandasarmiento]

BUG NATION WYA?!? 🐛🐞🐜🪲

[@andrea-vb8ls]

[@gracemiller5578]

[@meganryal3510]

[@loganjbel]

[@lindseykuruc8010]

Not that my opinion matters but this feeeels right. Excited to watch this new phase !

[@Laurajoyyy]

Love you Sal bug ❤️❤️❤️

[@flovita]

bug nation rise uuupp

[@jadem220]

kinda wish you explained what happened w meghan and the crew- they went from being in all of your videos to not even saying goodbye. dont mean to pry but as a viewer you alluded to drama and never spilled

[@gracetaylor270]

completely agree !

[@wawooosh]

Ya… love u bug but

[@violettawright7539]

oh she doesn’t talk about it…? i haven’t watched it yet i’m already disappointed now :/

[@rampaige_d]

Absolutely not! It’s none of our business concerning her own personal relationships. We are not entitled to any specific details of creators lives. You can be curious and speculate all day long while still respecting and honoring her privacy.

[@wawooosh]

@@rampaige_d This comment was respectful! It may have been unintentional but the whole moving series profited off of this question only because she didn’t give reasoning to her move till now. Her content is her personal life and if she never talked about them it’d be fine, but you can’t profit off of that part of your life and then demand privacy later (not saying she’s doing that but that’s what you are saying) also again this comment was respectfully put and only highlighted the fact that the undercurrent was there and never addressed 🤷‍♀️ maybe there is no drama but the videos, even this one, made it seem like there was

[@thesusannahjill]

Okay hang on then; soooo is there gonna be a podcast? 👀

[@Kase1313]

Omg don’t feel bad at all girly pop! I am a bit shook but damn girl get it 😂😂😂 how is the friend group coping?!??

[@LottieSmalley]

chattanooga (& gps) girlie here that lives in atlanta now! welcome 🍑❤️✨

[@andrea-vb8ls]

I just started the video but I hope she talks about her friend group 😭 just listened to Channing on Obsessed and I’m dying to hear how much Brook & the bunch will miss her

[@hannahcrouch22]

I feel like there’s a Hannah Montana song about this… can’t put my finger on it…

[@ashleyhclancy]

you have been dying for the outdoors the entire time you’ve been in LA hiking Runyon every weekend

[@allesae]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@rachelk0413]

Wait omg all three of my siblings are also in Atlanta for the first time since 2016 I moved here bc I wanted to be with them and my now fiancé! Atlanta rocks

[@JK-uo3ir]

This all sounds like rich girl problems but congrats on the move

[@ohhhhhnooooo]

why do women get upset when they are ALONE in Los Angeles or New York City? Everybody there is trying to get rich and famous.... And they get mad because nobody wants to be their friend or they can't find a love relationship. Everybody is there in New York and Los Angeles for TEMPORARILY. Don't they understand "TEMPORARILY". They will move back to their hometown if things or their career don't work out. It has nothing to do with THEM. Ain't no men going to start a family in the most expensive cities. Women need common sense.

[@eclecticsteak]

You need to chill

[@rayvaann]

New sub from ATL, think ily🫶🏽
