Travel for a Year for the Cost of Staying Home by Phil and Carol White

Part practical planner and part travelogue of the authors’ own journey, Live Your Road Trip Dream is useful and inspirational if you’ve ever hankered to cross the country in an RV. The helpful to-do’s and things to consider in the first half of the book give advice on what to do with your house while you’re away, choosing a vehicle, traveling with pets, and other questions the beginning traveler may have. Following the extensive planning section, the authors detail their own journey visiting America’s national parks, complete with pictures. The cost of the authors’ trip may exceed some reader’s “cost of staying home,” but for anyone looking to get inspired to plan a trip, this will have you eager to pull out the map. It includes a helpful appendix containing worksheets for you to plan out your own journey.
