The classic road trip is more than just a vacation, its symbolic of life itself — a reminder that the moments, conversations, detours, and experiences along the way matter more than the destination.
Road trips represent freedom. Presence. The open road ahead and nowhere else you need to be but here.
What are your road trip essentials you cannot leave without?
Here are my top 5:
1.) Sunglasses - I feel like it reduces eye fatigue from, glare, etc
2.) A go-to road trip playlist or podcast queue
3.) Thermos with coffee and water bottle !
4.) A reliable cooler with healthy snacks
5.) A trash bag - you would be surprised how fast it fills up!
