Do you know a beautiful scenic place where my husband and I can go to sightsee?|175450

We are from Ohio so we don_t want to go anywhere too far away. We don_t want to go to Gatlinburg because we_ve been there. We want somewhere West of Ohio.

  • well i was going to tell you to go down to townsend in tennessee, near gatlinburg, but you_ve been there it says! if you ever go back, make sure to go to cades cove! it_s BEAUTIFUL! and you can ride your bike on the bike trail!

  • Well, I know you said west ...but you should go to Niagara Falls....there is still time to cross into Canada w/o a passport and when you walk up to the Falls it takes your breathe away!!

  • Little Miami Scenic Trail.

    Ton_s of website resources if you google it.

  • I recommend Minneapolis. What a beautiful place, lots to see and do, and it_s not too far from you?

  • go to santorini in greece i went there its so amazing

  • forget west... come east to NY! I live in Orange county, (which is an hour north of NYC!) and have access to a lot of historical sights:

    You have the Hudson River, West Point, the Intrepid, broadway, there is an old Army base on Lake George, the catskill Mountain, the Pokonos... the list goes on!

  • Go to Land of the Lakes in Southern Kentucky or to Manmoth Cave National Park in Kentucky.If you go to Chicago, there are many things to do.Museum of Science and museum of Natural History just to name two places.

  • Yosemite, CA. Waterfalls, mountains,....pretty much everything. It_s really beautiful any time of the year. Check it out here

  • .......Grand Canyon? I think that_s somewhere near Ohio.

    How can I live in the USA without having to marry a US citizen?|176469

    I_m a UK citizen, born and lived in London all my life and I hate it here. My dream is to live in The USA one day, but how do I apply to live there without having to marry a US citizen? I have qualifications and am willing to work of course. I_ve heard that the USA does not welcome UK citizens for green cards etc...

  • You have as good a chance of moving the the U.S. as U,S. citizen has of moving to the U.K. It is very difficult either way. Moving to a new place seldom makes an unhappy person happy...and it is heck of a lot of work. As a Citizen of the U.K., you have the opportunity to choose many other places to immigrate to that would be much easier than U.S. Every county has its imperfections...we just don_t seem to see them easily...we tend to idealize other places. Anyway...if you want to apply to immigrate, you can do it just like everyone else does...through the Diversity Lottery. See site below for immigration info. By the way, _COLIN_ is very misinformed. If a foreigner marries an American, that person still needs to g through the immigration application process...narriage just does not do it. Then, if they divorce before 2 yers , the immigrant is automatically, andpromptly deported...these reg are inplace to prevent the very thing he is suggestng.

  • i don_t know try a passport or something or look more into the Internet there has to be something

  • Easy solution.
    Its the states---right?
    OK
    Draw up a pre nuptial agreement.
    Marry on Monday, and divorce on Tuesday.
    he gets his agreed dollars, you get what you want.
    Its called business

  • get a work visa, my friend came here from lithiuania and has been here 2 years now, he loves just go get a work visa.

  • I dont know about now, but many years ago (1993) ,my ex_s uncle wanted to come over. He was allowed to visit, but could not live here. He worked for a company that wanted to open an office here, would have created many jobs, and yes he was turned down and basically told the US had its quota of british at that time. My ex mother in law came over many many years ago, from England and had to be sponsored. The best thing to do now is to go online and look for a legitimate immigration site to get info. Good luck.

  • get a job there first, then go from there. The usa does welcome uk citizens, but since 9/11 it_s nigh on impossible to get a green card.

  • I_ve never heard about America not welcoming UK citizens.

    1. Are at least 18 years old and a lawful permanent resident (_green card_ holder);
    2. Have resided continuously in the United States, having been lawfully admitted for permanent residence, for five years immediately preceding the date you filed your application for naturalization, or
    3. Have, after having been removed from conditional permanent resident status, based upon your marriage to a U.S. citizen, having resided in the United States for one year after the date the condition was removed;
    4. Have resided continuously in the United States at all times after your application to the time and date of your admission for citizenship;
    5. Have, during all periods of time referred to above, been and still are a person of good moral character;
    6. Have no outstanding deportation or removal order and no pending deportation or removal proceeding;
    7. Have the ability to read, write, speak, and understand simple words and phrases in English;
    8. Have knowledge and understanding of the fundamentals of U.S. history and government;
    9. Are attached to, and can support, the principles of the U.S. Constitution and can swear allegiance to the United States.


    There_s a lot more details on the site...

  • Student visa,you have to be student.
    Work visa,you have to be employed.

  • What, in your opinion is the best place to live in Alaska and why?|187379

    I_m thinking about heading to Alaska, where I_ve dreamed about and set goals to do for many, many years.
    I just want to live a quiet sort of place, sort of secluded, that_s inexpensive and yet accessible to a larger city for those bi-monthly trips for necessitates.
    I just want to get my book published and work on my photography. A small yet friendly town would be perfect.
    I_m looking all over the internet sites on Alaska but would really love to hear from personal experiences.

  • I live in Palmer. I agree with Capt. Ron. We hardly have any want or need to go into Anchorage anymore. Come on up!

  • My wife grew up in AK and I_ve visited there several times. Anchorage is definitely our favorite city, but if you_re looking for something more remote I_d recommend Palmer or Wasilla. They_re both about 40 minutes from Anchorage via the Glenn Hwy, but still mostly rural. Wasilla has grown a lot over the last few years, though, and has a lot of _box_ stores. The housing still seems rustic, though, even if you are 2 miles from a Wal-Mart.

    I_m a big fan of the Anchorage area because it maintains a somewhat warmer climate due to the warm ocean air (_warmer_ by AK standards, it_s still COLD in February!). If you want something closer to Anchorage than Palmer or Wasilla, check out Eagle River. It_s a suburb of Anchorage with some really nice houses and only about 10 minutes from downtown.

    For more remote locations, like Nome or Barrow, just know that you_ll not be able to travel at all during the winter months - you_re stuck in the boonies until spring! It_s still a beautiful state, however, and I encourage you to pursue an extended stay there.

    Also, just a personal note, if you have a choice between driving there and flying there you should most definitely drive there if you have the time. The AK Hwy is 100% paved now, to my knowledge, and it_s the most beautiful drive in North America.

    Best wishes, hope this helped.
  • What are some safe and cheaper neighborhoods to live in in New York city?|112313

    What are some safe and cheaper neighborhoods to live in in New York city? I want to live pretty close to Manhattan but not pay an arm and a leg for rent. I plan on renting a room.

  • Astoria, Queens, without a second thought. just on the other side of the East River from Manhattan and Roosevelt Island, and it_s only 15-20 minutes from Midtown even to the last stop on the N and W trains.

  • Astoria, Queens

  • LIC?
    not williamsburg bklyn
    mad expensive

  • Washington Heights, Inwood, Harlem, those are the areas that are becoming gentrified very quickly. I lived in the Heights for three years and my gym was in Harlem, most of my friends live above 160th street to the west side of Broadway. You should also check out Woodside, Sunnyside , Astoria, and Long Island City Queens and maybe Williamsburg, Brooklyn still, Windsor Terrace Bklyn. I_ve lived in all of those places, and they were safe and cool, and great for people who just finished grad school, were raised in the suburbs and want to live in NYC.

  • Safe and cheap neighborhoods to live.

    Queens
    -Astoria
    -Long Island City
    -Northeastern Queens (Bayside, Whitestone, Beachhurst, Bay Terrace, etc.)

    Brooklyn
    -Fulton Ferry
    -Fort Greene
    -Brooklyn Heights
    -Clinton Hill
    -Prospect Heights
    -Park Slope
    -Boerum Hill

    I hope this information was very helpful. Good luck and happy apartment hunting.

    Where are some places that will hire a 15 year old?|174379

    I am in desperate need of a job, but at 15 it is a little hard to come by. I live in Tennessee so please stick to places that are in this state:)
    I feel that I do have a strong work ethic, I_m reliable, and I have a personal goal to do the best I can in anything. I_m hoping this will help me out;)
    Also, any tips you can come up with would be very much appreciated!

  • If you want us to stick to places in Tennessee you should place your question in Tennessee and not here in Las Vegas. Placing your question in the correct category will get you better answers. Check with you school_s guidance counselors. They usually have job placements available. Good luck.

  • well many will not hire you until the age of 16
    you might want to try McDonald_s
    Burger King
    wendy_s
    dairy Queen
    a local supermarket
