The prettiest and most quaint place I've visited in the States so far. Working on a Girl Scout Camp, even more so with my friend who I was travelling with meant it was nothing but an obvious choice to visit the home of Juliette Gordon Low, the founder of Girl Scouts. Obviously we did more … Continue reading Savannah, GA
Those that know me would know I LOVE country music and a trip to Nashville would be right up my street - that couldn't be closer to the truth. I've been meaning to take a trip to Tennessee for years, one to experience the country music capital but two to visit my friend at the … Continue reading Nashville, TN
I hopped off the plane at LAX...well, no, I didn't. I hopped off the megabus, but lets not go there. LA, known for its entertainment industry, beautiful beaches and sunny climate, was one of my favourite destinations visited on my trip. It was definitely all it's made out to be! We didn't get into LA, … Continue reading Los Angeles, CA
I don't think any words, or pictures, could ever describe just how breathtaking the views of the Grand Canyon actually are. In order to enjoy these views, we did have to set out early, and undergo a journey of about 6 hours there, and back, but it was 100% worth it, and we had pretty … Continue reading Grand Canyon, AZ

I don't think I could ever express how much I loved the trip to Vegas. It surprised me. I went thinking I wouldn't enjoy it; the extortionate … Continue reading Las Vegas, NV

I think it was solely down to the area of the accommodation, however, I didn't really enjoy my visit to San Francisco, or at least, not compared to the … Continue reading San Francisco, CA
The Windy City...my favourite city in the US (so far). There's more to Chicago than the pizza, but whilst we're on the topic, let's talk about how good it actually is! Here in the U.K., we can indulge in 'Chicago town pizzas', and yes, they are good, but nothing could actually prepare you for the … Continue reading Chicago, IL
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of...literally. New York City. A destination i've been lucky enough to explore three times, yet still, with an upcoming trip in sight, am never short of things to do, and places to see. With Manhatten itself being home to hundreds of iconic sights and attractions, the city is never … Continue reading New York City, NY
I travelled America after working on a summer camp: and being a student, this was done on what you could call 'little money', but this blog post is aimed for anyone looking to travel America on the best value for money. First of all, before you travel, make sure you aware of the budget you … Continue reading America on a budget
