If you have ever been to a big city, the kind that you can recognize just by the name, then you know that they are pretty much all alike. They all have huge stores, pretty landmarks and tons of people. The thing about cities, though is that you can't get enough of them once you've been. The attractions may seem silly, too tourist-y even but they offer the most fun of the trip. Even if you've grown up in a big city, you should make an effort to do the tourist things. Look at your city from a visitor's point of view. You'll find that your city becomes a lot more appealing.
I always thought that I would love to live in a big city, somewhere that people have always longed to visit. I still think that would be nice, that I would enjoy that. However, there is a quiet thrill in small towns. Sure, they close up at five o'clock everyday and on Sunday nothing is open but they have the same things to offer that big cities have.
I don't know where I'll end up living but I have grown to appreciate the quietness of small towns and the crude ways of larger cities. They both offer new experiences and opportunities and they fit you in different ways at different times. So don't count out small towns or big cities; they are both wonderful in their own way.
