Utah

Wall Street hike in Arches National Park, Moab Utah

Looking for an outdoor enthusiast's addiction? Then you're looking for southern Utah! Thousands of miles of hiking trails for every taste - from easy hiking trails to the back country wilderness places where you can easily find yourself getting rescued by a search and rescue team (think the book "Stuck between a rock and a hard place). If you can do it outdoors, you can do it in Utah: from skiing, rock climbing and kayaking - to SUP, mountaineering and mountain biking, Utah's got it all. You will be impressed by size, color and landscape geography. Bring a camera, as you can practically look like a professional photographer; because no matter what you shoot, it all looks good!

California

Pigeon Point Lighthouse, with 1,008 glass elements and 136 spiral stairs

Expensive to live in, yet amazing to visit! There are more fun places to visit in California than there are bad guys on the Death Star! From lighthouses, to museums to zoos and, of course, the beaches with so many hot eye candy surfers that you would run out of drool before surfers. Check out the California page for what to do while in the state - including my 18 day road trip!

Washington State

Waterfall in Olympia National Park

Welcome to the land of waterfalls and rainforests. Washington State will give you experiences which would make the residents of Narnia packing up to move here! Moss-carpeted forests, lush greenery and miles of volcanic rock beaches which beg for you to walk their stretches of vanilla colored sands.

Nevada

The Paris Hotel on the main strip in Las Vegas

Desert scenery, glitzy hotels loom overhead in Vegas and open-air nightclubs have created a special night-life niche for Vegas.
​ 
If you're looking for a more free-range wild side, drive just outside of Vegas to experience nature's day life!

Pennsylvania

At the top of the Philadelphia Art Museum Steps in Philadelphia

What other state can you find over 400 years of history, run up famous museum stairs like a movie star and view the entire city skyline from the top of a modern skyscraper?

Pennsylvania has so many different places to visit and museums to offer, including the Andy Warhol museum in Pittsburgh, over a half dozen national historic sites inside the  city of Philadelphia.
