Our minimal social interactions and day-to-day routines at home have created an intense longing for a great escape. Now that the U.S. and many countries are undergoing phased re-openings, we’re filled with optimism for the future! After all, travel is not merely freeing. It unites, inspires, educates, and is a constant reminder that diversity of peoples, landscapes, cultures, and cuisines is the reason we love exploring the U.S. and world at large. While we can't wait to dust off our passport when the time is right, who needs one at the moment when we’re reminded of how much there is to explore in our own backyard? From colorful beaches and jaw-dropping coastlines to otherworldly sights and geologic wonders, below are four uniquely American experiences saturated in natural beauty and intrigue.
