Think back on your most memorable road trip.

The most epic road trip to date is, without a doubt, the West Side of the US: from Denver to San Francisco and back, and all the in-between.

3 weeks, 6 states, 6000km.

The main theme was national parks, so we covered as many as time allowed us: Rocky Mountains, Arches, Bryce Canyon, Zion, Grand Canyon, Death Valley, Great Sand Dunes, and sure I’m forgetting something. We also used the West Coast from SF to Los Angeles, enjoying the astonishing surfer beaches, but for me, one of the highlights was the Monument Valley, in the Navajo Nation. It was an overwhelming experience to see those ancient monuments, full of history, laying in a vast red sandstone desert. Everything felt huge!
