Now this is the America I fell in love with 35 years ago and still see it as my favourite country in the world ❤️ 🇺🇸 but the Carolinas will always have that no 1 spot in my heart.
If you ever make it back to Southwest Va check a town called Wytheville.

I actually travel thru here a few times. This is prolly my favorite area of the country. Super chill. I had my car break down in wythesville and everyone was super nice, helps everyone knows about cars. I would HIGHLY recommend this area compared to other parts of Appalachia, it's not the sheer poverty of West Virginia or Kentucky, but it isn't built up and touristy like NC or TN
Next time you are around…. Holla I'll show you the things you missed
I was raised pentecostal still go to a pentecostal church…in Central ky. WE DO NOT MESS POISON OR SNAKES! GOD GIVES WISDOM, people just dont use it! Love ur videos ❤

In Russian cities and villages there is a tradition of sitting on a bottle with the slogan…we are Russian, God is with us! Is this frowned upon in the US?! It's an ancient, purely Russian tradition!

I grew up in Northern VA and lived there most my life, but went to college in Radford, near Virginia tech, and a lot of people that went there were from these smaller towns. Tazewell, Galax, etc. Would have never known about these places outside of them 😂
