Good informed, open ended questions, but you need to push more to get your interviewee to tell a story.

Tell a story about the people being nicer. Describe how it's prettier. Tell a story about what he does when he visits California.

First, re-interview for better story-like quotes.

Next, work on a lead for your story. Try either a description, anectodal, or narrative lead.
