More Feature Stories
New England felt like a postcard that came to life—only softer, more real, more human. Cobblestone streets, fog rising off the coast, church bells echoing through quiet towns. I remember thinking, “This place doesn’t just show you beauty—it invites you to live inside it for a while.”
What stayed with me were the small things: the crunch of leaves underfoot in Vermont, the scent of salt and pine in coastal Maine, a quiet diner in New Hampshire where the coffee was always hot and the welcome felt like home. I left New England with a kind of peace I hadn’t even known I was missing.
