@stigatle that's right. I live in St. Paul and sometimes make the Mall my coworking space 😄
We walked around the mall, and later we went to a forest named 'Nemaji' if I remember correct, we drove 4wheelers and dirtbikes all day long ,was really nice. Minnesota was awesome, I really miss that trip.
@stigatle this the one?

Minnesota is pretty damn cool. I fell in love with the North Woods here on a high school trip. I've been living here for almost two years now, and I'm pretty sure I'll retire near those woods and Lake Superior, whether in Minnesota or Michigan.
@stigatle it's a gem. The Twin Cities area has everything any other major U.S. city has, with the addition of mythically unbearable winters. (They really aren't that bad, but we let people believe the tall tales. Though, maybe I can't see how bad they really are since I was brought up with weather extremes in Chicago and Michigan.)
I remember one funny thing, we stopped at a gas station, I was standing just outside eating a snickers, then a guy walks past me and notice this crazy big colored bug on the trash can next to me, and we both thought that thing was looking crazy, we both stood there talking to eachoter trying to figure out what the hell that thing was, then after a minute we realized we where looking at a plastic toy that someone had put there. haha, I always think about that one when I hear the name Minnesota.
If I was ever going to move to the states then Minnesota would be on the top of my list.
