Hi Shannon - so glad you heard from Rick Steves! His ethos for traveling as a means to connect the global community is so much more meaningful than what I call “fast travel”. (I think you know what I mean by that!) Have you checked out his sustainability approach? https://www.ricksteves.com/about-us/climate-smart/note-from-rick
Yes, love Rick's sustainability approach to travel! This is exactly the path people should take vs. "fast travel" (totally know what you mean). Thanks for your comment!
I figured we were on the same page! Also, I second your endorsement of freecampsites.net. While the website UI is a little antiquated, that site was invaluable during COVID when I was traveling between work assignments and hotels/commercial campgrounds weren’t open. Found some hidden gems out there primarily on public land. One more reason people who love travel need to advocate keeping our federal and state properties open to everyone!
Love this post, Shannon! Great info.
Thanks, Marcia!

Fantastic tips - definitely agree about the packing cubes!
Some great recommendations. I love looking at Michelin's guide for Bib Gourmand restaurants and eats, they have some great recommendations
