I've been to Asheville a handful of times, as it's roughly a 2-hour drive from Charlotte, and each time I love taking advantage of all this amazing city has to offer.  From the wide selection of craft breweries, local coffee shops, and eclectic restaurants, it is truly a millennial's dream.  If those are things you also value, then Asheville is the place for you.

Located in the western part of North Carolina's Blue Ridge Mountains, Asheville has a population slightly under 100,000 people.  Known for its vibrancy, it has a large (and growing) art scene, fascinating historic architecture, and is what a foodie's dream are made of.  Walking the streets you are guaranteed to see layers of art and messages of peace adorning the walls.  Ample opportunities exist to experience the local culture through artisans, food, and entertainment.

And if the city life becomes too busy for you, an escape to the mountains is a stone's throw away.  From the Blue Ridge Parkway to waterfall hikes to cozy cabins, the great outdoors is ready and waiting for you.

In this new mini-series, I'm going to share all that I have come to know and love about Asheville, from the food and drink to art and nature.  I was quick to identify Asheville as my spirit city, and if you stick around you may just find that it has something for you too.

If you've ever been to Asheville, share your favorite spots and things to do in the comments!
p.s. if this content looks familiar, it's because you've seen it before!  This originated over at www.feedthepassport.com and is migrating here to our site.  Feed the Passport is transitioning into a foodie-focused travel blog and we are picking up the pieces, focusing on the hidden gems, hole-in-the-wall, off-the-beaten-path treasures in cities around the world.  Stay tuned on both accounts for the best in what to do, where to stay, what to eat, and how to experience the authenticity of each place we visit.
