Every city in the world is different. It has its own story, points of interest, characteristics, beauty and colors. Also, for every person each city is different. Just one word can bring out in us a colorful mosaic kaleidoscope of images, memories, stories, people, souvenirs, emotions and feelings.
So what is a city? What do you think of when you hear the name of the city? Famous sights? Beauty? Or people?
If you have mixed feelings towards reviews and opinions (you can read more about it in Beauty of Choice post), this project is a great opportunity to tell a story of your City, get to know a local version of other places through the stories and experiences of the people that live there. This is an opportunity to see the real version of it, faults, beauty and all.
Tell a story of your city (or your state, or even a town), what you love about it, your favorite sights and places, and why you are proud of it. Most importantly, convince other people to visit it. (Great opportunity for traveler/tourist-overlooked places!)
No special format required (as long as it fits the subject matter!). Be creative!
Read, travel and get inspired by these stories:

Hi there!
I am Nadia. Traveling has been a dream of mine for a very long time, since childhood. My passion for traveling grew after my first abroad trip to Germany at the age of ten and a few summers spent in Italy and Ireland. Later these trips inspired me to study English, Italian and Spanish at the University and participate in Chernobyl volunteer interpreter programs in Rome and Milan Region, Italy. My interest in different cultures and languages led me to pursue B.A. in International Studies and continue my studies of Italian with a graduate program. I’ve been traveling to different places all over the world, but I have finally taken some serious steps in following my dreams. There are so many more places on my travel wish list and things I want to see and marvel at. So travel around the world with me!
