Do a road trip negli United States it is one of the most beautiful trips to do at least once in a lifetime. One of the trips that everyone would like to do at least once in their life, I correct myself. Why see the United States on the road? if you only have some reason, we will give you 10 and we bet that at the end of this post some of you will be ready to book.
1. To cover at least part of the Route 66. The historic road of migration to the west, opened on 11 November 1926 and closed in 1985, is still practicable for 80% of its length. In some places the road changes its name, taking the name of other state roads, in other parts it has become a city road, mostly for commercial use and in other parts it is even abandoned. The Route 66 beam is nevertheless timeless and traveling at least one piece of it is creepy.
2. Relive the book by Jack Kerouac, On the Road. For those who have seen the film, but even better for those who have read the book, going on the road in the United States of America is an emotion. Instead of hitchhiking you could plan your itinerary in detail, it would surely be a dream trip.
3. To see the Death Valley. The name itself inspires curiosity as much as fear, but the Death Valley is so called because in the center of the valley is the lowest point in North America, with its 86 meters below sea level. It is important to know that you can travel up to 300km without finding supplies, that the phones do not take and that is why there are telephone booths scattered on the road. In short, beautiful yes, but also prudence!
4. To sleep at least one night in the Motels. Surely you have seen them in movies and it will surely surprise you to know that there are several in America. There are dozens of Motels and there are also more or less valid chains. Sleeping on the side of the road, dozing off in the evening to resume the road at dawn will really make you feel like in a movie.
5. Driving for hours without meeting anyone. Taking a road trip in the United States also means driving 300 / 400km without meeting a soul. Streets deserted and desolate and straight, where there are no people or animals, where you do not meet anyone but a few small groups of houses every now and then here and there. An experience to try if you are not afraid of loneliness.
These are the top 5 reasons that come to my mind for a road trip in the United States, which ones come to mind?
