The USA 50/50 Challenge: Top Ten States
People continuously ask me which were the best states, hoping that theirs made the cut.
I've come up with my top ten based on my experiences during The USA 50/50 Challenge, again in alphabetical order.
California
All of the USA can be found in this one state: mountains, ocean, rainforest, high desert; you name it, it’s got it.
Idaho
This state possesses the most stunning scenery, the most eco-friendly capitol city and the inhabitants live for the great outdoors.
Louisiana
It holds the most European city in the USA, has great culture in Cajun Country and knows how to party like no-one else.
Maine
The northernmost state with an amazing coastline, dotted with thousands of islands and peopled with unique characters.
Minnesota
Many are cold, but few are frozen. Minnesota was diverse, surprising and just fabulous.
North Carolina
A warm, generous and welcoming state where food is love and they love big.
Oklahoma
Some of the nicest, friendliest, most unflappable people you’ll ever meet. OKC made the top ten cities and Tulsa has its own charm.
Tennessee
A beautiful, green state that encompasses two timezones and owns country music.
Utah
From top to bottom it’s a remarkable state, with the diverse geography of canyons, alpine mountains and great salt lakes.
Virginia
A green and lush state, with history in abundance and a refined Southern grace that is inherent not adopted.
