Ohhhhhhhh Goodness better ask when you will be in SF  

Boston - Nice place, small and easy to get round.

Chicago - A friendlier New York. Brilliant place, lovely city

Las Vegas - I absolutely hated my three days there. It's definitely a stag/McGregor/Boxing trip location. I was with the wife and thought there was just something very tacky about the whole place. Maybe I wasn't drunk enough!

Los Angeles - The city itself is a bit of a dump. The areas around it are lovely though. Santa Monica is beautiful, I would live there tomorrow if I could. The coast road up to San Francisco is brilliant as well.

New York - What a city, love everything about it, great bars, shopping and restaurants. Even the annoying things like not having a countdown to the next train on the subway are fun over there.

Miami - Never been

San Francisco - Liked it, cool place, lots to see. Cycling over the bridge into Sausalito is great fun and the national parks around it and going to Alcatraz are very good too. Bit nippy at times

Cambridge MA USA (atm).
But would love to travel in the countryside of Andies, Atacama, Amazonia, Patagonia and Costa Rica that type of thing.

The more "on the nose" sports like NYC will always be superb to visit. Worst = St Louis. Whoa, whoa, whoa there speed racer. I won't have anything bad said about the Lou! Was my home for 2 years and a great spot if you could avoid being murdered! Chicago is a cracking city, Miami is great for a few days but becomes pointless after a while if yo aren't a high roller. Can't believe Nashville hasn't been mentioned. By far and away my favourite spot

Ive seen most of the big cities due to work and travels as I was out there for 7 months I done a fair amount of traveling.

Cities I like
San Francisco, NYC, Las Vegas, San Diego, Boston, Chicago, Seattle, San Diego (the old town mainly it's mini Mexico, the city centre isn't great) Nashville, Memphis, Dallas, San Antonio and Austin. Denver (spent Christmas here while in the US, rented a cabin out brilliant experience) Honolulu is quite amazing, Miami is grand for a few days also if you're doing the keys.

I don't understand the hatred of Las Vegas, what did you expect? It's casinos and shopping malls and the Grand Canyon. I like Vegas personally the Venetian for example is unreal, the square in the middle of the hotel is stunning, the heat is insane however first time I was there was middle of July and arrived from New York I remember the dryer feeling and slot machines in the airport well


Dislike
Washington (I liked Georgetown though), Orlando outside of Disney it's a dump, Tampa shocking, LA (Bar Santa Monica) Philly is rough but nothing compared to Detroit or Oakland dear god    I lived in Phoenix, Scottsdale is lovely Phoenix itself isn't great warm all year though. Atlanta is soulless as is Baltimore.

If I had to live in one tomorrow I'd go for San Francisco, Honolulu or New York State, I hope to do that one day. I adore the USA, luckily I see a lot of it but I don't think anywhere compares in the world.
