Dahlonega

We decided to head to the mountains after having the last weeks filled with coastline and lakeside relaxation. We ended up in the little town of Dahlonega, a recommendation from my aunty.

It didn’t take long to realize we wanted to stay a few days. My first stop was at a pottery shop to meet Brad, a friendly guy whose work I admired at my aunty’s house.

Just one shop over, I discovered my favorite place: Bleu, a local artist collective workspace&gallery and wine bar in one. You can sample wines from nearby vineyards in flights or buy it by the glass and wander slowly through this seven-tiny-room shop, each space a uniquely displayed exhibit of one artist, some of whom were there to chat and personally present their work.

The whole town was filled with gems… from outdoor bars with live music, to one of the cutest Saturday morning artisan markets I’ve ever seen… the vibe is relaxed, authentic, and creative. One of our very favorite stops on this trip so far!Leggi altro
