There’s so much to do in Asheville and there’s a lot of opportunities to travel there on a budget because there are a ton of free things to do, like hiking/parks/walk around downtown. I grew up in the Asheville area and love going back, not only to visit family, but to enjoy all that the city and it’s surroundings have to offer. The town I grew up in is a beautiful and growing town called Black Mountain, about 15 minutes east of Asheville. You get gorgeous views of the blue ridge mountains and the quiet yet still bustling fun of small town life. And then you aren’t too far from the heart of Asheville!
