I recently visited Charleston, South Carolina (the "other" Charleston for West Virginia folks) with my husband and I loved it!
I spent a lot of time just walking around the Historic District while Jason was busy with work events.
feels like I'm on a Hollywood backlot
The architecture is just gorgeous - lots of colorful homes with porches from the 1800s lined with palm trees.
this is a loquat tree - which, apparently, has zero relation to a kumquat. #themoreyouknow
I think I could have spent another week just walking around and looking at everything!
While I was there I stopped into Artist & Craftsman - a local art supply store. I feel like art supply stores (true ones, not "craft" stores) are so rare to find these days.
my favorite gouache - so hard to find!
They had SO much packed in there and carried beautiful high-quality brands. I couldn't stock up too much since we were flying, but I did get a couple things.
I won't even attempt to try and make a travel guide (there are so many good ones out there), but we had a great time and I would visit again in a heartbeat!
