Why not planning your road trip could be for the best

I am usually the over-planning, 23 lists writing, packing and repacking, researching for hours, booking five months in advance kind of person when it comes to traveling. I don’t want to miss anything and try to make the most of every moment while on vacation, but after traveling for a whole year, the whole process feels a lot more natural and a bit less once-in-a-lifetime to me. If you are going to be traveling every other weekend, you can’t be spending all of your time preparing your two-day trip. So when came the time to plan our return trip to Quebec City, my friend and I decided we were going to try the no-planning strategy.

how to explore a national parc in the rain

I am incredibly lucky when it comes to exploring National Parks, meaning in rains at least half the time I visit one. (Remember that time in Sequoia National Park and Yosemite? If you don't, check it out here, it's pathetically worth it) But, the rain doesn’t mean you shouldn't enjoy your vacation in nature (I mean rain is important for the trees, flowers and wildlife. It's all for a good reason), it just means you have to enjoy it in a different way than you probably had planned. So, here are my top tips after visiting the Rockies and Yosemite under heavy rain.

Living abroad: How to survive going home

Fitzgerald once said: “It’s a funny thing coming home. Nothing changes. Everything looks the same, feels the same, even smells the same. You realize what’s changed is you.” Oh how right he was! Going home is always to hardest part about living abroad for me because you expect it to be so easy, but it’s actually just like moving away except everyone thinks they know you while they don’t anymore, and you are expected to go back to how it was before you left without having time to adjust to this old/new reality and fall back on your feet. It seems to be becoming easier every time I do it. I suppose I’ve got some practice now! But if it’s your first time going home after living abroad or an extended trip, here’s my how to survive going home guide.

Living abroad: How to adapt to a new home

Moving away is never easy, but moving by yourself, to a place you have never been before, where you don’t know anybody? Now that is a full on challenge! And no matter how long you have been planning for this or how excited you were for this move, it’s okay to feel a little overwhelmed and homesick at first. Adapting to a new home and a new environment is hard, but here are some tips to make the transition easier.

Activities to do on a road trip

Road trips are so much fun, but they can also be a bit boring after you have been driving for hours. I am leaving in a week for the biggest road trip of my life and I am a kid at heart so I love games and challenges. Of course, I have prepared some activities for us that I thought I would share with you. Pinterest was a big help in finding ideas and some are from games we used to play in the car when I was a kid. I hope you have lots of fun in you travels.
