Advice for first solo trip
Hi! I am a 19 year old female and I have always been super eager to get out and explore. First on my list, I would love to take the summer of 2021 to exploring the United States, visiting the 49 states manageable by car. I care a lot about visiting the abundance of national parks we have to offer in the US, so I will definitely be purchasing an annual pass. My main questions are, for anyone that has taken a trip all across the US;
-
How much money did you save up prior to your traveling? I don’t mind sleeping in the car or at campsites. I think a big thing for me however is the different foods I can try within the states, so I definitely would like to eat at a bunch of restaurants and get a real taste of the different foods, and I know that can easily add up, but I’m a big foodie and I’m always eager to try some great spots. I’m willing to work my ass off until the summer, so if it’s a suggest high amount I’m willing to work more, and I already have a good chunk saved up.
-
Necessities I will need to bring with me. I have a somewhat small-medium sized car, a Scion. I have about 10,000 miles used on that car, so it’s in great shape.
-
How much is a good amount of time to spend traveling the US? I am open to all suggestions, and willing to accommodate a certain length of time. Am I lowballing how much time I should take to spend to explore by just squeezing it into the summer months?
-
Any places in suggestions in some of your favorite states?! I’d love to hear some. I have been trying to calculate a route I would take to circumference all the states I can hit by car, (I’ll be starting in New York), and putting some points of suggestions I’d like to visit within the states I see. And any restaurants!!
I have my heart set on this and I would like to start planning right away that I have this many months to save up and plan, and of course to wait and see how much control we have over Covid’s current situation by then. Anything else I should know is greatly appreciated! I definitely care about seeing a lot of the National Parks, I definitely want the nature aspect out of this trip! Not really a “city” person but they would be nice to see! I am way more interested in hiking and sightseeing. Thanks!
