8 Lessons I Learned After Road-Tripping 10,000 Miles Across the US

Before my first road trip, I was under the impression that the US was extremely urban and populated, but that's far from the truth. You might be thinking, Isn't it boring driving through the middle of nowhere with nothing buy cornfields and overgrown trees for hours? No, it's amazing! I would much rather drive on the backroads and actually see the country than on a five-lane highway and see nothing but other cars. Doing that has made me appreciate our country's beauty even more.
