Down South

MOVE Communications Southern Office, Asheville, NC.

Maybe you have driven through Asheville on the way to Florida. If you had, you would remember it. You probably considered staying. That happens to a lot of folks. They drive through the winding mountain roads, experience the moderate climate, and enjoy the arty, outdoorsy vibe.

 

When you drive here or fly in from the north – you really get an amazing glimpse of the majestic mountains. Driving through them is breathtaking. Flying over them is almost so grand it gives you a scary feeling. It makes you feel moved that something so beautiful has been created. AND to live and work amongst them has been a special treat. Every day the scenery and the cloud formations change. In the past, rainy or cloudy days seemed sort of depressing, but here the clouds and sky changes make a special light show almost every night.

 

The people here really are kind and welcoming. You feel the southern hospitality. Coming from the North, at times we feel we are very culturally different but overall people are very interested to talk to us and we have been lucky enough to meet some great people that have some great stories about Asheville and its history. Since not a lot of people are originally from here – most people ask, “Where are you from?” Apparently I have a very distinct accent. I am usually called out on it in the first 10 minutes.  Does Detroit have its own accent?

 

For those who love to camp, hike, and enjoy the outdoors, you immediately notice all the active things to do. Whether on the Blue Ridge parkway or at one of the many parks or trails, you will not be at a loss for amazing views and fresh air.

 

The downtown area has quite a personality. The people, the vibe, and the food all provide a lot of character and charm.  Friday night drum circles, the Largest Home in America - the Biltmore Estate, outdoor activities for everyone. This list goes on. If you really want to enjoy it check out the 5-day weekend package going on through the Asheville Tourism association.  And make sure that you make a stop in at the Bolak Estate while you're here.
