I was thinking about doing the same so this topic also answers my question. Thanks all &lt;img src=&quot;http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/my-plugins/bb-smilies/default/icon_biggrin.gif&quot; title=&quot;:D&quot; class=&quot;bb_smilies&quot; /&gt; </p> http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/topic/is-it-better-to-do-a-road-trip-across-the-us-or-fly#post-2434 Wed, 26 Jan 2011 23:46:25 +0000 NancyHoward 2434@http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/ <p>If you have the time, definitely do a road trip and remember, the journey is always the best part of any trip. </p> <p>Whether you being on the east coast, the deep south or the Texas pandhandle, you will definitely awe-struck by the sights. I'm a history buff so I can find a little bit of history tucked away in any spot I find. </p> <p>I hope you have a great trip. </p> http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/topic/is-it-better-to-do-a-road-trip-across-the-us-or-fly#post-2370 Thu, 21 Oct 2010 05:35:33 +0000 JoAnna Haugen 2370@http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/ <p>I recommend a road trip. The U.S. is a very diverse country, and if you go by car, you have more of an opportunity to appreciate what it has to offer. </p> http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/topic/has-anyone-been-to-the-sustainable-tourism-conference#post-2312 Thu, 26 Aug 2010 05:47:14 +0000 Amandah Blackwell 2312@http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/ <p>I never heard of it but it sounds very intriguing. Going green and eco tourism is very big right now and will probably continue to grow. </p> http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/topic/has-anyone-been-to-the-sustainable-tourism-conference#post-2311 Wed, 25 Aug 2010 06:16:40 +0000 RalphZ 2311@http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/ <p>I recently discovered a conference called Sustainable Tourism and was wondering if anyone has heard of or attended this conference? Thanks! </p> http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/topic/is-it-better-to-do-a-road-trip-across-the-us-or-fly#post-2305 Mon, 23 Aug 2010 11:40:19 +0000 irishfireside 2305@http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/ <p>So much depends on how much time you have. For the last two years, we've driven from Milwaukee to Los Angeles and prefer it to flying.</p> <p>You will definitely meet more interesting people and have a new appreciation for the size, beauty and diversity of the United States by driving.</p> <p>In 2009, we made the trip in a van and stuck to an Irish-American Roadtrip theme. In 2010, we were traveling via RV and the trip was more about art and craft shows and our jewelry business.</p> <p><a href="http://irishfireside.com/category/roadtrip-details/">Irish-American Roadtrip Videos, Audio and Blog Posts</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.onthewhiteline.com/category/winter-2010-travels/">Posts from the 2010 Trip</a></p> <p>I must say, bringing your house with you via an RV is an amazing experience! </p> http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/topic/travel-without-luggage#post-2293 Fri, 20 Aug 2010 10:25:11 +0000 Trisha Miller 2293@http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/ <p>Wow - I don't know if I could do without even a very small overnight bag or day pack - I think most women just need a little more "stuff" than guys do - I can do without makeup but there's no way I could take a trip of more than a week without at least travel-size containers of my favorite hair and skin care products, and while I COULD wash my undies out at night and let them dry while I sleep, that COULD cause problems if there's ever a fire or some other emergency in the middle of the night!</p> <p>Also I'd REALLY miss my laptop. &lt;img src=&quot;http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/my-plugins/bb-smilies/default/icon_smile.gif&quot; title=&quot;:-)&quot; class=&quot;bb_smilies&quot; /&gt; </p> http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/topic/have-you-ever-hitchhiked#post-2289 Fri, 20 Aug 2010 09:59:47 +0000 Trisha Miller 2289@http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/ <p>A few times when I was in high-school and then again just after, I did some hitchhiking to get around.</p> <p>For the most part I still believe that it's safe to hitchhike unless you're a female traveling alone, then I don't think it's wise. But for guys or couples the likelihood of trouble is very low.</p> <p>I do occasionally stop and pick up someone who is hitchhiking, but it really depends on the situation and time of day, how much other traffic there is, etc. </p> http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/topic/travel-without-luggage#post-2287 Fri, 20 Aug 2010 06:45:54 +0000 Amandah Blackwell 2287@http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/ <p>It would be a challenge for some folks to travel without luggage. Perhaps they could take 'baby steps' and travel with a carry-on and then travel without luggage! </p> http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/topic/travel-without-luggage#post-2286 Thu, 19 Aug 2010 23:51:26 +0000 Maria Staal 2286@http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/ <p>I think I could probably manage it, but I would shove a toothbrush and and tube of toothpaste into the backpocket of my jeans. Can't do without them! &lt;img src=&quot;http://www.travel-writers-exchange.com/Forum/my-plugins/bb-smilies/default/icon_smile.gif&quot; title=&quot;:)&quot; class=&quot;bb_smilies&quot; /&gt; </p>
