Have you been to Arkansas?

One of the fastest growing areas in the US is right in Northwest Arkansas. It surprises me how much it's growing by the day. And because of it's size, here's a couple of things you want to know before your visit:

- You’ll find pockets of cool spots almost anywhere you go! Don’t leave home without your camera. Seriously, I've been regretting it everytime.

- The main districts are: Rogers, Bentonville, Fayetteville, Springdale. It could take you monthsss to fully explore all the areas - restaurants, cafes, and shops have been opening up by the day.

- Northwest Arkansas is known for their museum, Crystal Bridges. It could take you the entire day to explore the area. There are even hiking trails you don’t wanna miss out on. Unfortunately, some hikes were closed due to storms during my visit, but I will be back again!

Save this post when planning a trip to visit Northwest Arkansas!
