North Carolina Guide: Start Here

I grew up in North Carolina, from when I was 4 years old. I’ve lived in the Raleigh/Triangle area, Asheville, and Charlotte – basically, the three main cities in the state. I’ve traveled other places in the state, and I went to college at Appalachian State in Boone before interning in Winston-Salem.
North Carolina is known for having all four seasons, and all types of terrain that make it perfect for photography, travel and more: the beaches, the mountains and everything in-between!
