Road Trip Locals

Why Road Trips?

We started roadtripping regularly in 2019. After postponing back-to-back-to-back vacations due to work, we were ready to travel more, and with our dog in tow, road trips felt like the most accessible way to explore.

We spent almost all of 2020 on the road, and after a spontaneous 6-week road trip through New Mexico, we realized just how much we love roadtripping and how much there is to see Stateside.

But traveling full-time while working full-time wasn’t sustainable for us, so we split our lives into two seasons: The Travel Season 🚗 and The Basketball Season 🏀(because where better to recuperate from adventuring than one block away from your favorite sports team?!)

Our Travel Seasons quickly turned into giant road trips that took us to some of our dream destinations, like… spending 2.5 months following the US and Canadian Rockies, a 21-day Great Alaskan Road Trip, 3.5 months exploring Colorado & Utah, and a 5-month NE Road Trip capped by Halloween Night in Salem. You can see everywhere our Travel Seasons have taken us here!

Now, we believe road trips are the best way to see and experience a new destination. (Plus, the freedom of the open road is great for the soul.) After falling in love with so many incredible destinations across the US and Canada, we created Road Trip Locals to help you experience their magic, too!
