7 Tips for an Awesome Road Trip!

Saved Road Trips for last, because I’m about to leave for one myself AND I’m super excited!What I realized when planning is that there is soo much that goes into a road trip and I decided to share some of what I learned with you!

  1. Pick a Route - This was one of the toughest things to figure out for me,SOOOO I decided to plan around places I knew I wanted to visit. I knew I had to go to Austin, TX ; New Orleans, LA and Nashville, TN. From there a route was formed…Austin was a bit far coming from Los Angeles so I added Phoenix ,AZ to one of our stops and also some random city on the way to Austin. That way we were only driving in daylight hours and no more then about 8 hours a day.
  2. How Long Are You Going to Stay in One Place? - This was an important factor for me to consider, because I wanted to pack soo much into my journey. So I decided I would be fine with spending one night and one full day in each place I visit. This is going to allow me to have two awesome dinners, explore the nightlife, and get some awesome instagram pics throughout the day!
  3. Have an Idea of Where You Want to Go in Each City - With such a limited amount of time in each place, it’s important to know where you want to go in each city. Figure out what’s important to you and go from there. I really want to make sure I get some GREAT instagram pics to share with you all and also eat some mouth watering Southern Food. So when looking up different things to do, I’ve geared my searched towards that. The Southern Belle in me is going to come out. If I start saying ya’ll again you’ll know why! :D
  4. Check the Weather - Since you’ll be going across country, it’s a good idea to check the weather of each city you’ll be visiting and pack accordingly. But also remember weather can change! So make sure to pack layers and be prepared for different extremes along the way.
  5. Make a Playlist - You’re going to be in the car ALOT so make sure you have a great playlist for those times you’re going through places that may not have music you like or you’re not getting any service while trying to  stream your music. I’m super excited to make my “mix tape” lol. But, don’t just think about music, add an audio book to your list or pre-download some good podcasts to listen to as well!
  6. Pack Snacks - Make sure to have some healthy snacks and lots of water with you. Yes, you’ll be stopping at gas stations but you don’t want to  continue to pay those premium prices as you drive across country. So put a flat of water in the car and have some sweet, salty and savory snack options!
  7. Have Fun! - This is supposed to be a great bonding experience, so bond with whoever you’re with take LOTS of pic and make TONS of memories.
