Actress Danica McKellar of “The Wonder Years” fame is just another celebrity who’s embracing life outside of Los Angeles.

The 48-year-old star gushed about some of the things she loves about living in Tennessee while speaking with Fox News Digital.  “Tennessee is a total quality of life improvement. It’s gorgeous, I love the seasons,” McKellar told the outlet.

“I grew up in Southern California and I love LA, and I love California. But I have to say, the seasons are really something else. I love watching the leaves change colors, and I love it when it gets cold. And I love when it’s really hot, humid.”

She continued, “Maybe it’s some sort of honeymoon period. I’ve been there about a year now, but I love all the seasons.”

“I am just as busy in Tennessee as I was in Los Angeles because so much of everything that I do is virtual, online, preparing for projects,” McKellar said. “I shoot my movies mostly in Canada. But I like to say that my view out the window is a lot prettier. And when I have to drive some place, it’s just a gorgeous drive.”

The actress rose to fame during childhood for her role as Winnie Cooper in the popular TV drama “The Wonder Years.” Lately, McKellar has been appearing in holiday-themed films on The Hallmark Channel and took a turn on “Dancing With the Stars.”

While discussing her faith, the actress also mentioned her friendship with fellow Christmas movie star and outspoken Christian, Candace Cameron Bure.

“I would not say I’ve embraced religion so much as relationship. I’ve found my faith, and it’s been an amazing life changer,” she told Fox News. “I have this sense that everything’s going to be fine in a way that I never really had before.”

“I am so grateful to Candace Cameron Bure for bringing me into this era of my life. She really had a lot to do with it,” McKellar added. “Also my dad. He’s been a believer for a long time. It’s just been a beautiful, beautiful gift, and it feels so good, and I want everyone to have that feeling.”
