well if u love shopping i've got a great place! the mall of america in minnesota. its one of the largest shopping centers in america and has an amusement park inside! here, you can see what i'm talking about below.

I would suggest Chicago. They have top-notch shopping opportunities on North Michigan Avenue. They also have wonderful art at the Chicago Art Institute, museums like the Natural History Museum and the Museum of Science and Industry. Then there is the natural beauty of Lake Michigan. There are many parks and recreational opportunities along the lake shore.

If you like night life and clubbing, there is also quite a party culture after dark! They also have major league sports teams if that interests you.

After all this, the people tend to be pretty nice too!
