Review of Asheville, North Carolina


Magical
Star Rating - 1/18/2007
Over the past 2 years I have travelled across the country and lived in many different states, but I have never been in a city like Asheville. It overwhelmed me with an emotion that I have never felt and I can't describe, but it made me feel. I walked down the street and people eating inside of the restaurants would see me through the window and wave hello. I've never met such friendly people in my life. Some strangers even offered me a place to stay. The mountains are in the back yard and the city is full of outdoorsy people. This is a very "hippie" town. I was shocked when one day I saw some guys walking around in suits. They did not fit in. The town is full of life at night as well. For a small town of about 100 thousand, they enjoy their nightlife. Asheville is a city that holds a special place in my heart and I will never forget my week there.
