27 Aug Friendly Locals In the USA
Americans are really friendly people. They love to chat, are generous with their time and welcome visitors into their lives with warm smiles.
Travel magazines, bloggers, and tourism industry professionals often give awards about the friendliest towns and cities in America. Savannah, Texas, Orinda and Burlington are frequently on the lists. There is no real way to measure how friendly a town is, so this recognition is based on atmosphere, mood, and general feel-good vibes that come with a certain destination.
Here are some places where we’ve experienced a great vacation that was made even better thanks to friendly locals.
Sedona, Arizona
Sedona is a high-vibes destination with many people on a spiritual journey of discovery. Perhaps that is why the locals are always pleasant and kind, and the place has a general feeling of happiness in the air.
Sedona is famous for Vortex meditation sites that many believe lift their vibrations to levels of joy and bliss. If you chat to the locals, you will find many have lived in Sedona for their entire lives and wouldn’t dream of living anywhere else. Many others were drawn to living in Sedona due to the gorgeous red rock surroundings and the positive buzz of the spiritual energy.
