SOUTHWEST, Fla. — Have you ever heard that saying or seen the hashtag #welivewhereyouvacation?

I don't mean to brag, but it's kind of true.

I'm Shari. I'm an anchor and reporter here at FOX 4.

I'm from Southwest Florida, and I love my hometown.

I am so proud to be from this area. I attended Evangelical Christian School from 4th grade to graduation and learned how to swim at the S.T.A.R.S. Complex.

Give me a good boat or beach day any day.

That pride's part of the reason I'm working to highlight areas of Southwest Florida that make it such a unique and awesome place to live.

Yes, let's get to the beach (our first episode is on Cayo Costa).

But let's also check out other aspects of Southwest Florida, too: the artists, the Jeep lovers, the holistic healers, the mixologists, the entrepreneurs...

My photographer, Johnny Gonzalez, is also from Southwest Florida.
