Step 1: My profile picture was taken in Hong Kong. The other side of the world would be about the U.S.

Step 2: Grand Blanc, Michigan is about a 4 hour drive from Indiana, Ohio, and Illinois. So this narrows it down to those states.

Step 3: The quiz was title "Ohio, Round and About". So now you know that the state that I am traveling to is in Ohio.

Step 4: We know that I am going to Ohio, so when we plug in some names with the clues, we get:

Which of these cities is larger?

a. ***, Ohio

b. ***, Kentucky (Kentucky is known as the Bluegrass State.)

c. ***, Missouri (Missouri's capital, Jefferson City, is named after Thomas Jefferson.)

d. ***, Florida (Disney World is in Florida.)

The answer would be b. This was the key clue in figuring out the solution. First off, you know that this city is in each of these states, and you know that out of them, Kentucky was the largest. There is no Ashland in Florida, so the solution can not be Ashland. The answer to the city was Bowling Green. There is a Bowling Green in each of these states and the one in Kentucky is the largest.

Step 5: The name of the University shares its name with the name of the city. So we know that I am in fact, going to Bowling Green State University. You could also check your answer by typing Bowling Green into Google and the University should be the first search result. When you type in Ashland, the first search result is a chemical company. 

Thanks to all who tried out the question though!

Here is a fairly simple question to leave with you today.

List the countries that fit all of  these descriptions:

- on the Balkan Peninsula

- former member of Yugoslavia

- member of the European Union

- capital is the largest city

Good luck!
