props for real.

one thing to look into is a Nat'l Park Service America the Beautiful pass. For $80, you get into any national park for free (some parks charge entrance fees, some don't)

You already know I got that my man can't wait to get out west and hit up Glacier National Park, Grand Tetons, etc.

Nice man, I recommend you check out couch surfing websites if you're up for it. Helps you get a place to stay or even free while meeting new people wherever you go.

A friend of mine put me on to that. Definitely going to try it out, but very selectively (i.e. super-progressive, hippie areas where my chances of getting robbed are minimal.)

what city are you starting out at? and just wondering how old are you?

I'm 24 and I live in Chapel Hill (NC), so that's my starting point. Going to come up the Appalachians first and camp for a couple days. My first destination is actually on the coast of Maine (Rockland.)
My uncle oversees a boatyard and he offered me a gig working on a lobster boat random I know, but I'm gonna give it a shot for a few weeks just for the experience. Plus it's money in my pocket and a free place to stay.

so you don't have a route planned out?

Not a day-by-day itinerary or anything, but I have a general idea of the course I'm going to take. Pretty much going to stay east of the Mississippi until after the holidays, then I'll go along the Gulf coast and hit up the Southwest, drive up the coast of Cali, on up to the Pacific NW. I could see myself spending a lot of time out West. Just so much to see out there, and I've lived on the east coast my whole life.


I'm pleasantly surprised with the feedback so far. I love this place
Will most definitely keep you dudes updated.
