I know Austin well. We have an LLC there. I'm back in Austin November 2!

Depends what you like? I'm not a massive San Antonio fan personally, but love Dallas. There's something about the place. Very functional, quite business-like, sort of reminds me of flying Club Suite. Hard to explain. I just seem to fit the vibe.

1 day though isn't long in Texas. It's huge. Just getting to places like Dallas or San Antonio is an effort. When I go Austin I'm usually there for at least 7-10 days as it takes a few days to adjust fully.

Austin is amazing, but changed so much. Driving around takes ages, it's so much busier than when we setup in 2016. Also, it's a bit like a 30-something Google campus in places and everyone seems to be either on the lake(s), drinking or down the gym. You wonder how and when they work sometimes!
