As an exchange student from Finland in 2017 fall term, Omaha was a great experience. Here hockey as the biggest sport, packs about 7-10k people at most in an arena, and seeing a cornhuskers game with 80k people packed in was an amazing experience. People were amazing, friendly, and always curious about why I chose Nebraska as a place for exchange. However, UNO was a great place to stay and study in.

I went to high school in the Republican Valley. Not mountainous like where I live in the Northwest, but definitely not table top flat. I rode a bike from my friend’s house in Lincoln to his parents house in Omaha. It was 54 miles of rolling hills. Finally the Panhandle is more like Colorado and Wyoming. It is closer to Cheyenne and Denver than Lincoln or Omaha. It does not have the humid weather that is in the rest of the state. There are elk and antelope in that area. Along with trout streams. It is considered the High Plains with an elevation from 3000 - 5400 feet. Also as he says in the video it is in the Mountain Time Zone. Don’t be fooled by the flatness of the Platter River Valley that I 80 follows. Nebraska has some hills.

As a person born in Omaha, I love western Nebraska the most. Out in Omaha it's very humid in the summer. I've worked with and befriended people who aren't used to to Nebraska's hot summers AND cold winters. Some of the African people I work with say they like Nebraska in the summer because it's like home for them, but they dislike the winters because of how cold can they be here. To me I love it, I can go for a walk in a blizzard (mostly because I'm the only person walking, so I can drink as much as I want on my walk. Then later still get warmer weather that I can still drink to, without freezing.) I love Nebraska, I don't know if I'd even trade it for a solar system.

It's absolutely beautiful!! Massive rolling hills, bluffs/canyons, wildlife, no traffic (can go long distances without passing another vehicle), and I love the small cowboy type towns. It's like stepping back in-time!! Honestly, one of the best kept secrets in the US.....shhhhhhh, don't tell anyone!!

i80 is a great highway, there are some museums right there, but as an option, I'd consider driving via Lincoln Highway (like from Kearney and to the west). It takes more time, it has less traffic, but at the same moment you drive through the small towns time to time and it is less boring than i80. Also, if you want to stay for a night somewhere on the way through Nebraska - North Platte may be the good option. It is a nice city with food and lodging options (there are also some attractions you may find interesting).

I like Big Fred’s pizza, Valentino’s, Godfather’s Pizza, Taco Johns, Bronco’s, and any local steak restaurant. In addition, if you are a history buff, Boys Town (from the movie) is on the Western edge of Omaha.

As a native Nebraskan: I like the big open skies and thunderstorms in the spring. I think Runza is ok but everyone I know loves it. Visiting western Nebraska once would not be a waste of time, Fort Robinson and Chadron State Park are pretty cool. You should go tubing down the Niobrara on a hot summer's day. Stop at Smith Falls State Park and see one of the only waterfalls in the state. See the sandhills at least ones. They have their own kind of beauty but be careful because you might be stopped by ranchers herding cattle down the road. It gets hot and humid in the summer and cold and brutally windy in the winter. Henry Doorly zoo is cool if you've never been there, it's great for kids. Wouldn't recommend living here, property taxes are absurdly high.

Nebraska, it ain’t for everyone but for those that it is, it is awesome! Oh, and you hit the nail right on the head about the weather. This sounds crazy but I keep a jacket, stocking cap and gloves in the trunk of my car year round.

My husband is from Iowa (now in jersey) and you just gave him a wave of nostalgia with the Runza sandwich...he tells me when he is craving one. There was a stand with similar sandwichs at the Iowa state fair when we went and but he said...no let's wait to go to a real Runza hehe...still haven't been :( ...one day!!

I am a lifetimer in Nebraska and live near Scottsbluff. Thank you for the great review of our state. It's all true. You could spend all your life here and still not do it all. It's a good life.

I've traveled pretty much everywhere in the US to Boston, Florida to California and the one place I always come home to is Omaha Ne not only have I lived here my whole life, there's always something to do as a 27 year old. I love Nebraska truly it's the coolest place ever, and if you do visit hit up downtown Omaha or Lincoln if your looking to party it up. Go Big Red!
