I’m super excited for/jealous of our friend Lo, who took a month off work to skip around the country using JetBlue’s All You Can Jet Pass. He booked 17 flights and leaves today for his first stop, Seattle. He doesn’t have any itineraries; he’ll just go where his curiosity takes him. I can’t wait to follow his adventures on his new blog, Eat Pray Lo. (Funniest blog name ever, right?)
If Matt and I weren’t so busy this month, we would have canceled our Argentinian honeymoon and done this instead! There are so many U.S. cities we’ve shamefully never visited. A few on my shortlist: New Orleans (gumbo!), Savannah (droopy trees!) and Chicago (blogger friends!).
Design*Sponge has these absolutely amazing city guides that only fuel my wanderlust. They are jaw-droppingly thorough with insider tips on what to do, where to eat and where to shop. And check out the charming illustrations! I’m in love.
Where in the United States have you always wanted go?
Savannah is def on my list. My grandpa grew up in an orphanage there. How cool is that?!?! I know. Pretty cool. Also, Memphis, Cheyenne and Charleston.
I drove from NY to LA with my husband when we were dating and I loved stopping in different cities along the way. Still, my list of places I still want to go is pretty long!
I wrote the one for Madison! So famous!
Ohhh, thanks for the Design Sponge link! I didn’t know they had that! We’re going to Portland and Seattle after we get married, because those are our *dream* places we would love to live (we think, hah!). Other than those places, I really would just like to go on a random road trip and stop a bunch of places :) YAY.
having JUST left Argentina, I say it’s probably better than most US cities, (I’ve not been to all of them but to about 30 cities in the US – the ones you would want to visit) so don’t you regret.
anyway, there is always next year.
New Orleans and Boston would be on my list. In fact, they are on my list. I’ll get them done just not in a 30-day free-for-all.
nola and the outer banks of nc!
