Road trip itineraries, destination guides, inspirational photography, and lots of coffee.
about me
The earliest road trip I can remember was a family vacation one summer. We spent a few days traveling down the East Coast from Virginia Beach to Myrtle Beach. I remember how the boredom of sitting in a stuffy car was pleasantly interrupted by the occasional stop at some exciting destination.
Photography will always be my greatest passion, but writing was my first. Now I combine these talents to craft tales of road trip adventures, itineraries, and destination guides.
For me road trips are not just a passion or a career; they are a way of life. Let’s go for a drive.
