Asheville, NC, is a nice place for solo travelers. There are arts events, and downtown gets crowded in the evening, but there are hiking and biking trails, the Blue Ridge Parkway and Biltmore mansion, Thomas Wolfe's house, and beautiful scenery. If you are a yogi, there are lots of places to practice or take a workshop. Great restaurants, too, though I tend to favor Green Life, a version of Whole Foods, which always has great food and excellent service. I live in Nashville, TN, where the people are friendly, but not intrusive, for the most part. We have an exact copy of the Parthenon (intact), art, music, lots of great food, and there are places to hike or bike throughout the city. If you love to read, I recommend a trip to McKay's on the west side of the city. We also have an excellent symphony that can be heard for a reasonable cost.
