I love a tropical beach vacation and wandering the cobblestone streets of Edinburgh, but taking a road trip will always give me a rush of freedom and exploration. Getting lost, eating snacks from the gas station and finding epic mom and pop restaurants is just as fulfilling as getting to your destination. What you’ll see next will hopefully inspire you to hop in your car and take the backroads to your next stop.
