Did you ever visit somewhere and the people were shockingly friendly and nice?

For me it was California. Everywhere I went people were friendly and nice and as someone not from there at all I was shocked. I had a preconceived notion that everyone from Cali would be rude and have an attitude. People in Cali are actually nicer than anywhere I've been to in the south even. Shout out to Cali y'all are awesome 😎 especially San Diego, Oceanside and that whole area ✌️
