Take a crafty tour of the cities and hometowns of our members to discover their favorite shops, restaurants and inspiring hang-outs
The best thing about living in Tel Aviv is that you are always in the middle of the action. Any time you go out on the street there is something interesting going on. In the mornings the cafes are packed, the stores are bustling and the atmosphere is amazing. In the evenings the bars are full, there is music in all the main streets and whether you fancy a quiet bar and beer or an all-night party, you have your pick of it all.
When people think of cosmopolitan towns in the American South, Greenville, South Carolina might not come to mind- but it definitely should! Full of vibrant shops, plenty of greenery, and an amazing food/drink scene, Greenville has become quite the destination. AND we have our own, unique hashtag (#yeahTHATgreenville) that makes it easy to find places to go and things to do!
The best thing about my city is the location! In the highlands of Scotland with Loch ness and some of the most beautiful scenery right on our doorstep. Just a drive away from the island of Skye.....endless mountains and lochs......stunning. Culloden battlefield visitor centre........fabulous place to visit. Also a visit to the flora hall with all sorts of amazing plants and flowers! Stunning! The gateway to the highlands and a fabulous base to explore the rest of the highlands from!
I love being able to walk almost anywhere and feeling safe about it. The city feels a bit squeezed between the sea sea and the hills but I like the feeling of cosiness it gives. During summer there are uncountable events outside, from music festivals, to fairs, to movie nights. In the colder weather you have your choice of theatres, movies or bars to go to. If you love the outdoors, good trails are never farther than 15 mins of the town. If you prefer indoors activities, there are game shops for table top games enthusiasts. Choose an activity and chances are there is a place for it close enough.

The best thing about living in my city is being so close to the sea and that its quite a small place so it doesn't take too long to get anywhere. We have tons of great beaches to choose from and many other outdoor places such as game farms (Shamwari, Kragga Kama Game Park, Addo Elephant Park) and off road bicycle trails (Norm Hudlin). We have all the modern comforts too such as malls, clubs and shopping centers.
The best thing about living in Limassol is the all-year-round warm weather here, it is fantastic nearly 10 months a year (with only January and December being really kind of rainy and coldish - with the occasional sun at the beach and snow in the hilltop like 30 minute drive kind of month during the winter period!) and the beaches are so close and beautiful! They are also kept lovely and clean with full amenities, and beading on the beach on a warm summer afternoon under a large straw umbrella is just any beader's dream!
