Whenever close my eyes and imagine this word ‘road trip’, all I can picture is an open road, hills and trees, calm weather, a car, a long journey, roadside Dhaba, small halts, people, and great fun. Road trips are always exciting and amazing. All I can say is that if I want to travel from one place to the other, I would love to prefer a road trip. Road trips aren’t just about visiting to someplace, it’s more about exploring that place in deep. The best childhood memories are connected with road trips. That’s the reason road trips are fun always. A car, some friends, and a long stretched highway! Some of the sweetest friendship memories are created on road trips. It is a little challenging considering long journeys, as it can be time-consuming and tiring, but the challenge is an adventure and when there is no adventure in your journey, you need to plan it well.
I greatly admire road trips because road trips are fun. Though I haven’t been able to travel much so far, whenever I meet people who travel and I ask them their travel experiences, road trips are their favorites. There are so many reasons why road trips are fun always and those reasons are thrilling enough to make you plan your road trip someday. Traveling to someplace via road creates amazing memories that always could love to cherish throughout your life.

While I was reading a blog (Off The Path) on the same topic, I found this amazing sentence, “The journey is the destination and a road trip is an adventure!” I have always loved to go on unplanned journeys then be it my Kathmandu journey or Rishikesh trip. And unplanned journeys are always an adventure. This is what road trips are fun. You are young and your blood pushes you do to something adventurous. Buddy! Drive to some strange land, walk out of your comfort zone. Don’t you get goosebumps when you watch Wild Hogs?
