I am currently in Nashville. I have been in Tennessee in the last few days. I will pass by Manchester (to see the Old stone fort), and then go to Georgia in Atlanta, before coming back to Tennessee and taking a plane back to Canada.
Southerners are very nice and have good moral values. Nashville is a really cool place, though it is clearly way more liberal than the reste of the state. People here though are very blunt and proud, so while I share many of their values concerning freedom and faith, I have a hard time relating to them. I felt much more similar to Australians, who are more mild-mannered and laid back.
I have three major problems though:
1-Car is king here. Not renting one really was a mistake. It is very unfriendly to pedestrians. There is almost no public transportation, and many highways.
2-The sun is really, really strong. In the late morning and afternoon it's unbearable to me. I feel like a vampire.
3-The food is filles with dressings, sauces, salt, and tons of extras. It is MUCH more so than in Canada. For soft drinks, medium is small, large is medium, xtra large is large... and I don't know how to call the rest. Delicious chicken meals though.
