“the quintessential college town of Ann Arbor, Mich.”

I love this city. In the past year, I got to experience seeing Yo-Yo Ma, the Dalai Lama, some amazing writers speak at local bookstores that are filled with history themselves, Bob Woodruff at graduation, along with, of course, freezing in the rain/snow for four hours watching that 2-touchdown “greatest rivalry” game on my birthday. I love getting the list of programs put on by the University at the beginning of the year and reading about word-famous musicians who chose to only put on a special performance in the US, usually something along the lines of Boston, DC, Ann Arbor, and LA. I know college is supposed to be filled with freedom and parties, but what excites me about going back to Ann Arbor the most is that there’s so much to experience like that…along with just taking walks around the city, experiencing its amazing culture and history and sitting in coffee shops and watching the diversity of cool people that fill its streets =].

Any of the places on that list sound awesome…plans retirement (just kidding, though those who know me probably wouldn’t be all that surprised if I did so)
