When you decide to spend the rest of your life with someone, there are a lot of decisions you have to make, some of which may cause conflict. Luckily, Kaitlyn Bristowe and Shawn Booth have come to an agreement about one crucial move: they've decided where they are going to live together — and it isn't Los Angeles (whew).
The couple, who have been attached at the hip since the Bachelorette chose Shawn over Nick Viall at the final rose ceremony, seem to have been wavering between two great cities when determining where they want to lay down roots: Vancouver, which is Kaitlyn's hometown, and Nashville, where Shawn lives.
Drum roll, please ... and the winning city is ... Nashville!
After spending loads of time in Canada together, the couple have reportedly decided to move to Nashville for a little while because they reportedly desire "a change of scenery," according to a source who spoke with InTouch. They aren't sure if Music City is their final destination, but they want to give it a shot, have fun while they're there, and then decide if it's a place where they can picture themselves raising a family.

Kudos to them for giving both of their hometowns a chance. I feel like this move really speaks volumes about their ability to compromise and respect one another's origins. I'd also like to shake their hands for not choosing to settle down in Los Angeles, a move that would indicate their desire to seek even more fame. They are putting their relationship first, ahead of additional reality TV opportunities (and you just know they're probably getting tons of offers from producers looking to cash in on them right about now).
There's no reason for them to rush into making a decision about where they will live after they're married. They're young, in love, and willing to explore their options — everything will work out in the end if they continue to have open minds.
