vlog weekend in west virginia

Tucked away in the mountains of Appalachia, West Virginia has long been a hidden gem. It’s a secret. And that’s its magic. It’s a place that’s “Almost Heaven” (as the John Denver song, Take me Home, Country Roads describes) – somewhere that makes you want to go outside and ride river rapids, dance to fiddle-heavy folk music and gaze up upon a star-full sky. It’s an escape from light pollution and an immersion in soulful American traditions. If you listen to locals, living here is a form of storytelling and myth-making, adventure and artistic expression. It’s practically heaven-sent. And visiting? It’s almost heaven.
