Before leaving for this 10-day road trip, I was concerned about finding overnight parking, being confined to a small space, overspending on fuel, losing internet access, and more.
Shortly after setting out on the journey, I realized that many of those worries were unwarranted.
Because I was prepared for the worst-case scenario, the pleasant surprises actually made the road trip more enjoyable. The key was to go in with realistic, if not low, expectations.
Though I could've done without having to refuel so often and would've liked to shower on board, the experience was amazing overall.
Don't let preconceived notions deter you from new destinations or forms of travel. After all, you never know what you might discover.
