Scenic vistas and friendly people aside, Tennessee sucks.  HIGH TAXES (I live here) @ 10% sales tax.  Medical program for the old and poor has been cut to the bone with the intentions of killing em off.  New Lottery System is as corrupted as anywhere else.  High drug use for being able to cope with the heaped-up corruption.  It has a high density of millionaires whom in general won't pee on a poor person whom is on fire; even if their bladder is full and you lie blocking the toilet's door.  It is an I'm up and you're down culture and thievery abounds.  Need know more, e-mail me.  It's just better than living in Detroit Michigan.

Don't know anything about horses.\nBut I did study abroad in Scotland in college. (There were students from all over the UK)  I found the people to be really cool -- they were so friendly & open and I made so many friends so quickly.\nI had a friend who went to Germany and kinda had a crappy time.  He found the Germans to be kinda cold & unfriendly & most of his friends were other Americans or Brits also studying there.\nI'm not slamming the crouts, that's just one person's experience!

i have several times..brought some friends along for some trips. In this area we have acient colonial plantation and slave houses just scatterd every where. Some are deep in over grown forrests others are lucky they survived the paving of the new raods they are so close.\nI really enjoy the sights of those old old houses...so much history...but it feels like there are the ghosts of the previous owners watching your every move..not quite hostile yet but wary...enough to give you prickles up your neck.\nAnd how could it be illegal if no one has lived in it for ages upon ages? I mean really why waste the history lesson of how people lived.\nThen the next adventure is to wander into the family grave yards and try make out the dates and writing on the stones...

I live in Southern Indiana, and work in Louisville, I think LaGrange is a nice place. I have never heard anything bad about it.  I have been there a few times, I enjoy it.  It close to Louisville yet you are out and feel like you are not in a city.  Enjoy it here louisville is a great city and dont forget to come across the bridge!!!!

I spent like 3 months in grmany for doing an internship , i was feeling the same thing that you may be feeling . Kind of Lonely/depressed/confused.Discombobulated is the word if i may say. Actually this decision is for you to make.Are there other people from your country there ? Do you really like them ? do some introspection.Remember ,your mental health is more important than economic well being. Because ,if you do not ,things may go out of hand too.For me , I just cut short my trip & came back.

sorry-I can't help you there, but I had to say how beautiful a city Strasbourg is. I was there last summer and would love to go back for more than a day.\n\nGood luck!\n:)

I just got back from Paris and Versailles a couple days ago. I have to say that I wish I could spend more time there. It was wonderful. The only problem, for tourists, are the peddlers on the streets trying to get you to buy really cheap stuff. Outside The Louvre, there are guys who make a bracelet on your finger and distract you while others pickpocket you.\n\nBut like I said, other then that there are a lot of cool things to see. The foods not so bad, either. The sucre crepe and ice cream I had was a great dessert, not to mention other things. I'd recommend it.

I hope I'm not too late to answer this but since none of the other answers are doing it for me I'm gonna give it my best shot. Here it goes:\nUne fille appelée Madelina a décidé de se rendre à Hawaii. Elle prit l'avion le jour suivant. Des qu'elle arriva à Hawaii, elle prit l'autobus qui se rendait à un fameux volcan hanté. Là vivait une déesse qui n'aimait pas que l'on prennent des choses appartenant à son volcan. Le guide montrait à Madelina et les autres touristes partout quand une petite roche volcanique tomba des murs. "wow, regardez tout le monde c'est une partie du volcan" dit le guide. Madelina aima la roche et pensa qu'elle fut jolie. Puis, une idée lui traversa la tete, elle pouvait juste prendre la roche comme un souvenir quand personne ne regardait. Alors elle la prise. Elle prit l'avion qui la ramena au Caroline du Nord. Comme les jours passaient tout ce qu'elle faisait se retournait contre elle. Elle tomba de sa bicyclette et égratigna tout son corps, puis elle a été virée de son travail, et des choses de ce genre continuaient de se passer. Elle s'est demandée pourquoi tout cela lui arrivait. Peut etre que c'était à cause de la stupide roche, peut etre que la déesse du volcan était fachée contre elle. Madeline se sentit terriblement coupable. Elle décida d'acheter un autre billet de $600  pour Hawaii juste pour retourner la roche. Elle retourna au volcan et déposa la roche à sa place. Toutes ses ennuies s'étaient envolées.\nLa Fin\nI didn't use online translations. Honest. French is only my native language.

I have never been there in person, however, using Google Earth I did a virtual fly-over. Looks pretty desolate to me, but I live in beautiful North Carolina - lush mountains and lots of green...

My gf's cousin is there at the moment, and he loves it.  He's living close to the uni itself (so accommodation must be fairly readily available) and the town itself is very nice - well provided with shops, pubs, clubs, and the like.\n\nNot a bad choice at all!

I went last year and had a wonderful time. The music is as good as it gets. There is a person or band for every kind of musical taste. The hardest part is deciding who you are going to see when, because sometimes you have to leave one awesome show to see another. There are a lot of people (85,000 last year I think), which at times is a little overwhelming and sometimes scary depending on your state of mind. The porta potties were disgusting by the last day and were out of tp- so take your own. Bring a hat for shade and a lot of water, you'll need it. Overall, it was an enlightening experience. You walk away with a new appreciation for music and how it affects people- really cool.

I have stayed last Xmas two weeks there. I liked it a lot, wish to go again there. A lot of people speak English and German so you should have no problem, I didn't. Is is relatively cheap. For places to have fun there are a lot but you have to find them for yourself (this ca get very exciting actually)

Yes - it's a lovely, exceedingly clean place to spend a couple of days, particularly if you need some retail therapy... I had a look at China Town (disappointing), Raffles hotel (nostalgia galore), Night Zoo (great!), and wandered around a lot during the day, and had drinks at several different country clubs at night. The array of food available is mindblowing, all excellent quality: my favourite was a Japanese restaurant tucked in one of high rise housing estates on the 14th floor.

Lived there for awhile and its tough to find a good time especially during summer time but there is some stuff to do. there is always Eskimo Joe's but its ok. the best advice is to take the short drive to Tulsa and do something there. plenty of art stuff and clubs and just better scenery.
