Richmond, VA.
Richmond is not New York. Or Chicago. Or Los Angeles.
There is a place for larger cities. I love big cities. And their innate diversity of people, food, entertainment, and hours of operation.
There is a also a place in my blood pumper for smaller cities like Richmond – outside of their standard pairing of enhanced affordability.
Their essence has a greater opportunity for display, as the opacity caused by the cloak of big business is less. It’s easier to see their soul. And easier for a unified collective, to shape that soul.
Richmond is a city steeped in history, art, and culture. From its vibrant street art scene to its world-class museums, Richmond has something for everyone.
When it comes to finding the perfect place to stay, Airbnb offers a wide range of options. Also due to its smallish size, you can essentially reach any place in the city by car within 15 minutes. This opens up your possibilities as there are an enormous amount of Airbnbs’ spread across the city.
