I moved to Charleston in 2007 and quickly fell in love with the city and the people. I felt like I found my place in the world to make my home. I moved on a whim for a job without visiting first and it was the perfect choice.
As a huge fan of history, I felt like a kid in a candy store. There is so much history that Charleston holds that I feel like I will never be able to learn it all.
I spent many years learning about Charleston with all the things to do and see. I am happy to share with you the tips and locations that I have discovered.
Charleston has a landscape that encourages intimacy and partisanship. I have heard it said that an inoculation to the sights and smells of the Carolina lowcountry is an almost irreversible antidote to the charms of other landscapes, other alien geographies. You can be moved profoundly by other vistas, by other oceans, by soaring mountain ranges, but you can never be seduced. You can even forsake the lowcountry, renounce it for other climates, but you can never completely escape the sensuous, semitropical pull of Charleston and her marshes.
