Ashland is one of my most favorite places on earth. The first time I visited, when I was a Junior in high school, I just felt at home, and felt like I could live there forever. One of the highlights of that particular location is the Oregon Shakespeare Festival. I went there at the real beginning of my passion for theatre, and I was just blown away at the talent, energy, and creativity in that place. Again I just felt at home, and felt like I could create there.
Now here are a few of my most favorite places there:
The Oregon Shakespeare Festival of course. And for anyone who is interested I am planning a trip there this spring to see some of the shows, and spend a few days relaxing there; of course I would love it if my friends could come with me . (wink, wink, nudge nudge)
The Black Sheep Pub has great bangers & mash and shepherds pie. I love the atmosphere, and it is a great place to be with friends and eat and blether.
Lithia park is an incredible place to explore and walk about. It's beautiful, peaceful and perfect right where it is. And for those who love chocolate Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory is your new mecca.
And oddly enough I fell in love with the Ashland Hostel. It was my first experience with a Hostel, and it was perfect! It's just so homey and informal, just like me.
Ashland is amazing, and I can't wait to go back. (At least to get better postcards!)
