I take cheap travelling to an entirely different level from eating (apples, carrots, peanut butter+jelly, granola bars, oatmeal packs, canned tuna, etc), to showering at truck stops. A motel stay is a luxury, and so is a campground. Do I have to rough it like I do? No but I have guilt free designer shopping, or four star dining experiences instead. Its a give and take for me as to the memories I decide to make. Im still hunting for a pair of Christian Louboutin's on sale... lol. Off Saks has some great deals, and I will drive out of my way to shop at one. I am a girl after all, even when I have three days worth of mud caked in my hair. Gross? Good! The more disgusting the more I prolly enjoyed myself. Ive never caught more that bug bites, and poison ivy yet. I bet while getting dirty I fasted in prayer, too.
My parents loved to travel, and took us all over the gosh darn planet. My mom loved fine hotels, and my dad not so much. I too speak Greek fluently BibleLover being my mother was from the island of Crete. My Spanish bites, but I know enough to get by. My sister lives in northern Greece, in Thessaloniki.
What do I get out of all my crazy butt road trips? Getting away from humanity, into the wilderness, and turning up God's volume all around me. I like to experience the beauty He created without the noise, and pollution of man. Sad thing is Ive never been hiking anywhere yet in the U.S. when I didnt bag up garbage.
Keep y'all posted as Im getting ready to hit the road for a while in the next few weeks. Maybe diamond digging in AR? Camping on the gulf in LA? Watching the sun rise in CA? Im not sure yet, but my laser blue Jeep is saying "Lets go for a long ride". Who knows with me. All I know is Im going someplace sometime soon.
