The Midwest felt like home, even when it wasn’t mine. It offered small towns with big skies, honest meals, and a kind of welcome that didn’t need explaining. I remember thinking, “This isn’t a place that tries to impress you—but somehow, it does.”
What stayed with me were the gentle mornings over still lakes, roadside antique shops that made me pull over, and long drives through cornfields that turned golden at dusk. I found joy in farmers markets, front porch conversations, and trails that gave me more than just views—they gave me stillness. I left the Midwest reminded that beauty doesn’t always ask to be noticed—it just shows up quietly and stays with you.
