We have a very unique and vibrant culture that you simply can’t understand until you live here. Because of how strong our traditions are, we often get into a little bit of awkward situations while traveling. Here are some examples.
We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life as we all practice social and physical distancing. While we’re continuing to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, we don’t expect or encourage you to go check them out immediately.
