Ever since the pandemic started, travel writing has been one of the industries that's gone by the waste side, but as our world opens back up, travel is very much a possibility. You can still do some travel that's safe and without many restrictions, like road tripping to a beautiful natural area like Virginia. That's exactly what I did! Any nature area in the USA is a good option for those who wish to stay away from people, yet still have a fulfilling experience away from home. Being from Ohio, and having only experienced south parts of the Appalachian mountain range, I knew Virginia would be the perfect place for me. Plus, I was out to see what the area is like due to recent genealogy discoveries within my family and heritage. I found out that my family was one of the very first to settle the Shenandoah region and I found some remnants of their time there.

Travel yields some of the coolest experiences modern life can offer. Over my decade of travel writing, I’ve had the pleasure and opportunity to stay a night in a castle in Ireland, in a gypsy camp in Slovenia, in a tent at the base of the Swiss Alps, in a remote cabin in Iceland, and now, I’ve stayed in a 1909-themed club dining train car in Minnesota. Sometimes the place you stay can add tremendously to the experience, so why not give it some extra thought when you’re booking your next trip? I always do, for good reason.
In northern Montana, along a beautiful road south of Glacier National Park is a little slice of heaven known as the Bear Creek Guest Ranch. With mountains outlining the horizon, the Bear Creek Guest Ranch is a historic bed and breakfast with horseback riding adventures, cattle drive vacations, and a collection of private cabins. This accommodation is a short drive of under 40-minutes from the West Glacier entrance of the national park and is surrounded by some of the most beautiful natural areas I’ve ever seen.
In the heart of the stunning Grand Tetons, the Bentwood Inn is a bed and breakfast that offers a unique flavor unlike any other. The Grand Teton mountain range is a part of the North American Rockies, and is often described as being among the discussion of the most beautiful mountains in the world. The mountains jut up and out of the earth, and far into the sky, running north to south from Yellowstone and beyond Jackson city. On one side, Wyoming’s sweeping prairie and badlands slope up along the Teton range and then come down into Idaho, offering scenic views, opportunities to see wildlife, and to adventure in the great outdoors, where much of the forest remains generally unspoiled.
Among perhaps the most beautiful place in America sits the Jackson Hole Hideout. The Grand Tetons are a range of amazing mountains south of Yellowstone and north of Colorado’s Rocky Mountain Park, which is renowned for its beauty and its powerful jutting peaks. Infamous for being one of Ansel Adams’ playgrounds, Grand Teton range is a seriously impressive chain of mountains that awe the spectator like few places around the world can. Second to only Europe’s Alps and perhaps Glacier National Park in my book, the Grand Tetons are a place everyone must experience for themselves.
