Welcome to my ShiftNSmiles! Here, I embark on cross-country trips that serve as both adventures and opportunities for self-discovery. Journeying through the vast landscapes of the USA, I delve into the heart of our nation's beauty, exploring places I might otherwise never have the chance to visit.
Each trip is a special pilgrimage, a chance to experience our backyard before venturing "across the pond" into Europe, a dream I hope to fulfill one day. On the road, I find solace in the simple act of driving, allowing myself time to just be, to contemplate and connect with my innermost thoughts and emotions.
So, how do I plan these epic adventures? It all starts with mapping out my route and determining the distance I aim to cover. Drawing on recommendations from friends and family, I curate a list of must-visit destinations, prioritizing scenic byways, historical landmarks, and points of interest along the way.
Timing is key, and I often embark on my journeys in August or September, when roads are less crowded and the weather is favorable. With my itinerary in hand, I turn to AAA to create detailed booklets of my trip, complete with paper maps for added peace of mind.
But these trips are about more than just sightseeing; they're about immersing myself in the world and its wonders, collecting stories and memories to share with future generations. To anyone hesitant about embarking on their own cross-country adventure, I say this: just pick a destination and go. Whether you find yourself lost in the beauty of unexpected discoveries or simply reveling in the open road, the journey is always worth it. Join me as I explore the world through the eyes of a helmet visor.
