Although no one could say that everything returned completely to “normal,” I’m feeling grateful that 2021 was a year where many of us were able to take some steps (big or small) out into the world again.
Domestic travel was more popular than ever in 2021, and the soul of the iconic ‘great American road trip’ was revived with a new passion. This road trip from Texas to California is based off my personal experience exploring the beautiful American Southwest. There’s so much to see and it would definitely be more ideal to have a week or more to spend on this route. But if you’re like me and have limited time, this is how I squeezed the must-sees into a five-day trip.
