The Land of Road Trips

Since 2004, I’ve traveled to the U.S. 15 times, almost exclusively on road trips. The country is simply made for exploring by car.

If you’re thinking about doing the same, I hope I can provide you with some inspiration here. I’ve listed all the routes and included a few tips and notes.

There are also detailed reports on some of the trips, packed with lots of photos.
