I have wanted to go on a road trip for a while, just driving off to nearby towns in my hatchback and exploring. I’d start small, like a day or three. The main thing holding me back is uncertainty of what to bring and how to do it, amongst other issues. I think I can figure out the food and sleep, but I was wondering:
- Where to access showers?
- Where to refill water?
- Is it worth bringing a tent (could I set it up outside of a campsite)?
- Where can I park when I need to sleep (that I won’t get in trouble for)?
- Am I missing anything else?
Was hoping some of you might have advice. I don’t have a whole lot of good people to go to about this IRL.
Edit: Just wanted to say thanks for taking the time to respond!
I’m definitely looking at hotels, airbnb’s, campgrounds, and hostels as options to rest up, but staying somewhere every night I want to be out of town would add up quick. Thanks for the assurance!
