Exploring the United States is an exciting idea. Taking it one state at a time might be even more exciting. You will have opportunities to experience countless climates, cultures, history, people, and more. Think about making a list of all the states and creating a bucket list itinerary for each of them. Each time you’re ready to travel but aren’t sure where to go or what to do when you get there, refer to your list and start crossing places off.

What’s great about traveling domestically is the opportunity for road tripping. Not only may this be a bit more cost effective, based on number of travelers and distance, but it may also lend itself to your travel experience as a whole. Creating memories on the road is the best way to kick off and end a trip.

Last time we went exploring in the U.S. we considered Maine, a New England staple. Now let’s take some time to explore Louisiana. We’ll dive into a few of the things that make Louisiana bucket list worthy.
