Blue Ridge Country - January/February 2020 - 29
By GRANT CURRIN
The Blue Ridge region is diverse, eclectic and huge. Even if you've
lived here all your life, there isn't enough time to see everything
worth seeing. That's why we're offering an interest-based feature for
this year's travel guide. Our recommendations are broken down into
five traveler profiles: the Forest Fanatic, the Vintage Vagabond, the
Well Wanderer, the Little Sipper and the Luxe Lover.
If one of those archetypes caught your eye, feel free to flip ahead
and start reading about the destinations you have to check out. If
you feel like a combination-and most of us do-then let the quiz
be your guide.
