Who doesn’t love a good road trip? I don’t think there is anyone out there who would say no to spending time with their friends and visiting random cities just for fun! It’s just made so much easier when everything goes to plan and you don’t have to worry about potential breakdowns if you have something similar to good sam extended warranties or even food, which is just as important! A well planned trip makes such a massive difference and allows you to crate memories with some of your best friends. Not got a car big enough to house everyone? You could always consider renting a bigger car from somewhere like this Wichita Chevy dealer. That way no one has to miss out on the fun!

Of course, you can always get something bigger than a car for your road trip. To help you save, when it comes to things like getting a hotel for the night, a lot of people are looking into getting themselves a motorhome – this makes things a lot easier for them on their road. If you are planning on bringing a motorhome with you though, then you need to make sure that you have motorhome insurance cover sorted, otherwise you might be in a little bit of a pickle if something happens. Once you’ve got your mode of transport, you’re all sorted and get started on your road trip!

Our favourite handmade online shop is bringing the goods to you with the Etsy Road Trip. From August 1-9, Etsy will be setting out on their first ever road trip, making stops in Montreal, Ottawa, Kingston and Toronto. The Etsy-mobile, as I’m calling it, will be packed with handmade goods from local artisans PLUS live music and food. It’s going to be 10 days, 4 cities and boundless creativity. We are certainly hoping this trip goes smoothly, unlike my Parents who unfortunately had to replace windshield within an hour of setting off on their last trip! Thankfully, the experts solved the problem quickly! So check out the website to see what artists & live music will be in each city. Come along for the ride by tagging your stop on the road or your own favourite travel memories with #etsyroadtrip.
