This site contains all my journeys to the United States of America (USA). I have been there several times now and I traveled the whole Eastcoast from Key West in Florida to Banghor in Maine, where I made the border to Canada via the Golden Rd. So one achievement, traveling the USA is already done. The next one is to complete the Westcoast, where I visited California and land-inwards Nevada so far…

During the Springbreak week, when University was closed, I decided to travel to California, finally! I had it on my list for a long time and wanted to see with my own eyes, what the American Dream is all about. And so I rented a car with ALAMO and made the trip in 12 stunning days, from San Diego upwards to Los Angeles, inwards to Las Vegas and the Death Valley National Park, back along Pacific Highway 1 via Big Sur to my final destination San Francisco.
