I only got in on phase 3, so didn't have a chance to see any other area outside The Black Shroud. What are some villages/towns of La Nocsea?
Immediately around Limsa Lominsa, there's a variety of small port towns, farming villages, dodo farms, and even a "fleet" of windmills on a coastal cliff that grind grains for the city's bakers. A number of these are populated by ex-pirates, some of whom are less keen on work than others. Most of the "civilized areas" of La Noscea are plains with rolling hills, but orchards do exist. You don't typically run into any significant forest until you get relatively far from the city (in Upper and Outer La Noscea).
I'm sorry I don't recall any actual names of places (I rely on in-game maps for that), but of course, you can always come up with a village of your own as the world is certainly larger than what we see in game. For instance, my Seeker comes from a small and relatively poor coastal village where most of the commerce is fishing and limited tree felling and woodworking. It's something I envision being near the drydocks outside the city proper, as they'd have a need for both food and wood.
One of the farming villages sounds good. When the open beta starts, I will make her, but I will need to also make a character that would start in that major city. She definitely would come from humble beginnings. Maybe her love of nature is what prompted her to become a Conjurer, and saved up travel gil to visit Gridania to learn from the Conjurer's Guild there?
