What's your favorite city to visit?
-
- Taipei : modern amenities, convenient transportation, good food, local populace who generally care about other people in day-to-day interactions
- Praha : beautiful old buildings to look at, beautiful women to look at, decent ice cream/gelato, cheap good beer
- Quebec City : beautiful city, like Paris but clean, sufficiently foreign but still familiar enough for Americans, Canadian-nice
- Las Vegas : all fake but you get miniature approximations of many world attractions in one place, you know nobody is going to judge you for anything you do there (except for tipping low), no better escape if you just want to get away for few days

the nickname "windy city" seems to be well deserved.

Cincinnati is my favorite city to visit. Because visiting means I don’t have to live in that Godforsaken place. From the moment I arrive, I can begin to anticipate leaving!

You hit my European favorites: Munich, Vienna, and Budapest. Haven't been to Prague, but I have heard many good things about it, too.
In the USA, I love wherever my kiddo is, and I love my corner of Minnesooooota. We have great local food, live theater, live music, outdoor concerts, great outdoor recreation with rivers and streams, biking trails, walking and hiking trails, snowshoeing, cross country skiing, snowmobiling.
Portland has lots of good restaurants, local breweries and distilleries, unique shops, music and performance venues, and Powell's bookseller.
Claremont, CA is fun, too, but much smaller.
Grand Marais, MN is a great location on the North Shore. -

New York for me is home and the absolute best city in the world. Nothing compares.
Having said that, I would list; of places that I have been and spent considerable time,
Rome
Paris
London
AmsterdamThere are cities i have not been to, which I’m sure I would love, I haven’t been to the Scandinavian capitals except Helsinki and would love to go.
having said that, the only other American city I truly enjoy is San Francisco. Otherwise I find American cities so monolithic and similar, with the same national chains, the same food, the same everything.
I’ve been to so many medical conferences and often enough I awake in an American hotel and I have to remember what city I’m in because they all seem the same to me. -

New York, Chicago, San Francisco are great choices. The big ones in Texas don’t do much for me. New Orleans is a great choice and so is Boston. Seattle is cool.
Internationally, I’d go with Paris first (never gets old), Tokyo is amazing...some of the other cities are great launching points, like Rome. I’ve been to London too many times to look forward to it.
My trip style these days however is to explore smaller and more remote places.

The Couch - for the atmosphere
The Front Steps
The Closet Where I Keep All the Hiking Stuff I'm Not Using
The Kitchen - for the food -
