Nashville

 I'm now in Nashville! Everyone told me prior to my arrival that Nashville would be cool, so how could I find it otherwise? I'm easily suggestible.

Nashville feels homey to me, actually. It's especially comfortable to stay in a beautiful, spacious townhome and look after this charmer.

Another great joy is that my friend Vanessa is staying with me, and we're able to have adventures together! Last night she took me on a drive around Nashville, so I could experience and admire the expected coolness of the town (very similar to Austin at a glance). As we were driving into downtown, she mentioned there was an award-winning Indian restaurant run by a famous Indian chef across the way. I instantly requested to go there, called to get a reservation, and all of a sudden we were eating papadi nachos and curry!

Yum!
