Also, Yellowstone was so beautiful it inspired Teddy Roosevelt to create the National Park Service to preserve such wonders. He *influenced* a railroad to build a line there and put up a hotel for tourists to promote the park and the program. The National Park Service survives to this day. Thanks, Teddo.
Nadine said she wants to go to the Salt Flats, so here's a bit of trivia for your trip about it! The scene in "Independence Day" where Will Smith is dragging the Alien across the Salt Flats and talking, then suddenly yells out "And what the Hell is that smell?!" makes people think it's part of his lines and he's talking about the Alien, but in reality it was unscripted! As he was dragging the parachute with the Alien in it, it was digging into the salt and released the rotten smell of the decaying Brine Shrimp in it! The Director knew it would happen but didn't warn Will to see how and if he would react to it, and he obviously did! lol! So, be aware that as you drive/walk across the Bonneville Salt Flats you may come across an odor if you disturb the Salt down to the moist layer! 🤢😂
@@throughthoroughthought8064 Mostly around the end of August for a few days at a time, and parts of September. The area that's used for the high top speed trials "usually" isn't too bad smelling depending on the weather they've had leading up to it. Rain will put in moisture (of course!) and cause bacteria to grow till it dries up and cause a sulfer/dead fish ocean smell, but the land speed record area has been packed down from use so much it doesn't release a lot of odor, or at least not as much as other areas that are lower elevation and hold more water when it rains and from groundwater seepage.
I am shocked the badlands of North and South Dakota didn't make the cut. But I know there's so many cool places that don't - I lived in Wisconsin and the coasts along the great lakes there and in Michigan should be seen too. There's just so much beauty here, it's hard to make a concise list.
I remember standing on the shore of Lake Superior in the UP, looking out over the lake and thinking there was nothing between me and the north pole. :-) Not true, of course, but it looks that way.
So many states were skipped that have such beautiful places... Tennessee, Kentucky, Texas, Carolinas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Virginia to name just a few. Almost every state has their own beautiful, unique spots.
I live in Massachusetts & my brother moved to Arizona, I decided to road trip to see him. I stopped in North Carolina to see/pick up my nephew who's in the Army. We took 5 days to get to AZ & just stopped at all the wonderful sights. It was a magical trip that was filled with so many memories
I did the same between enlistments (and yep, Fort Bragg was one place I was stationed). Vermont to Fort Carson, to Northern CA, down the coast to AZ and back before my re-enlistment. Mostly slept outside and linked up with my Army buddies and family in a couple spots! Glad you and he got that trip in!
Massachusetts has urban and rural. Out west, it’s similar to Vermont: tons of colors in the fall, tall mountains, and amazing views. Boston is such an underrated city. I truly hope they don’t skip Massachusetts!
One of the most sneakily amazing things I experienced in the USA was the BWCA in northern Minnesota. Went days without seeing another human; and it was the most incredibly beautiful scenery. We saw moose and bears, heard wolves and loons, saw a million animals and caught all sorts of fresh water fish. So much fun; unspoiled; unmarked nature but was still much more hospitable than other very remote places. Lots of folks still had guides from my understanding because getting lost is very possible.
Ooooooh that sounds amazing! Especially the bit about going days without seeing another human 😅 as a native Oregonian from Portland… I can only dream 💓
You only have a max of 90 days on visa waiver for tourism. Work of any kind is absolutely forbidden, so take your pics & videos, edit them back home & then post or you get hit with US income taxes & a visa violation which can permanently ban you from US! US taxes payable on WORLDWIDE INCOME, including what you earn in NZ. Do NOT mess with IRS!
@@sallystark1032 False. "US persons" - not just US citizens - are taxed on worldwide income even if they never set foot in US. MIGHT be eligible for Foreign Earned Income Exclusion (FEIC) IF lived outside US for the entire fiscal/calendar year, or legally resident in foreign country. Consult your tax attorney - ONLY one experienced with this complicated issue!
Hawaii is such a beautiful state, I've been there twice and enjoyed it immensely. Yosemite National Park is a must, it's perfect for tourism and camping; El Capitan, Half Dome, any of the falls and just plain hiking is worth the trip. There is so much to do there since they have a few main entrances; the southern entrance has these wonderful growths called snow plants that are really pretty. I've talked to people from all over the world when I took the John Muir Trail to hike up towards Half Dome. Enjoy the U.S. and take plenty of photos, videos, souvenirs, etc. when you come this year :D
Very west coast heavy. I’m surprised nothing was mentioned in the center part of the country. So much more than Florida, New York, and Maine on the east coast as well.
As a native Oregonian, I'm of course partial to the Oregon sites. There are so many beautiful spots to stop & enjoy on Interstate 101 (Coast Highway) My favorite is Cape Purgatory. There are hiking trails and steps down to the water area where you can see, and feel, the water come in! So awe inspiring!!! I do agree with Nat, that the Northern Lights should be on everyone's bucket list!!!
So many places did not make his list, and so many places to see America’s diverse beauty! It would be so cool to see other America top 10s or top 25s reviewed by your family! ❤🇺🇸🇳🇿
I'm 62 years old and have been in every state in the USA except Alaska. You really need years of traveling to fully appreciate the United States. I would never live anywhere else. I did all of it by car, and camper (except Hawaii of course). On the road is the best way to see the United States, and many of the best places are actually the small towns 😎😎
You need to go to Alaska, if you can. I've been to all 50 states and I can tell you that Alaska is the most beautiful state that I have ever visited. I've been twice and loved it both times.
I have been to many of these places, but Acadia (near Bar Harbor) in Maine is by far my favorite. If you ever venture to Bar Harbor definitely do Cadillac Mountain at sunrise; you will be the first on the continental US to see the sunrise! Make sure you get there very early for parking. Thunder Hole is also neat to see in Acadia, but it is at its finest right before a storm, otherwise it isn't as impressive.
So happy to see you guys planning where to visit here in the USA. Sad to say that most Americans never get to see these places unless they live there. It took me moving overseas to realize how beautiful, how green, how expansive this country is and I couldn't wait to get back home. This country is in the fight of its life right now and I hope we can ALL appreciate this gift from God. ❤❤
Agreed, there a bunch of fools being led astray by FNC et al. But our God is a powerful God. We've arrested the evil trump and once he is jailed, we can begin to heal.
@@leslieallen7070 More like stop permitting politicians to be 'owned' by the uber wealthy... but roughly the same thing... just stated 2 different ways.
There are a bazillion scenic places in the US. That's only the beginning! Every state has its own special type of landscape and unique features. Some well-known, some not so well known but just as beautiful and intriguing. Sometimes you find the coolest places and the nicest people on the roads less traveled and away from the cities. I can't wait to see your reactions when you come here and experience our country in person.
Yes! This video they watched only covered the West Coast, the Southwest, and New York City and New England, but there are plenty more awesome things to see in other parts of the U.S.
I feel so so proud whenever Seattle and the PNW is shown 💚💙🏔️🏞️🌧️🌲☔☕🥰 We have amazing National and State parks here to explore. I've loved growing up around the massive mountains and the ocean on the other side. I feel very easily lost when I travel to a flat place that's inland. 😂
I just took a road trip last month from Seattle to Dallas, Texas. We got to see some really beautiful places including Arches National Park in Utah, and Santa Fe, New Mexico. This past weekend we drove over Snoqualmie Pass to Eastern Washington - and I always come back to feeling we live in the most beautiful place!! I absolutely love Mount Rainier. So yes, totally agree with that feeling of pride!
When we retire, or if you are just independently wealthy, you live in a motorhome and stay on the move and probably still never see everything. (Would need a passport to get to Alaska through Canada, but not that hard). The road to Alaska was a dirt road not all that long ago.
As a lifelong resident of California I have been privileged to know how beautiful it is. (Avoid political discussions at all costs, folks here are extreme). But having a home on Lake Tahoe, I can tell you it is equally amazing in the winter. Also having lived in Humboldt, go see the trees but spend some time going through the small towns. They are cool in their own right. Buried among the redwoods you can find a family owned cheese factory (cows in the field outside) that will let you participate in the process. And another that makes fresh pressed apple cider that will change your life. Also, be on the lookout for Bigfoot, he was first discovered among those trees.
Edited to add a comment. This video does cover a lot of territory mostly natural and he does a very good job of describing the positives. For some strange reason though, the most popular videos ,the ones that are most often reacted to about the USA are heavily West and West Coast. Every now and then they'll throw in some Florida or New England, but they never talk about the beauty of the South or mid west, Great Lakes etc. . I can't help but wonder if these bloggers have something against coming to the South or flyover states. There's some absolutely gorgeous places to visit beginning with the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and the surrounding areas 8n TN, NC, VA, KY or, the beaches of the East Coast especially Carolina beaches . I guess most people are a little bit familiar with Florida but if you haven't studied the Florida panhandle and Gulf Coast beaches are the prettiest. My home state of Tennessee not only has the beautiful Great Smoky Mountains in the east but the state has some of the largest cave systems in the world and some beautiful lakes and rivers set deep between the high rolling hills. If you like fishing camping and boating it's the place to be. Then there's beauty to be found in Alabama Georgia Mississippi. People know a little more about Southern Louisiana but all three of those States have beautiful beaches on the Gulf of Mexico as well as Forest Hills caves etc. I have searched the internet and I cannot find videos exclusively about the natural beauty of the South. There are lots of videos about how to do a road trip to the South and they mentioned some of the beautiful places but they're more heavily focus on the history and the cities of the South rather than the natural beauty. I do strongly recommend that you check out some videos about visiting the South before planning your trip.
Mammoth Cave in Kentucky has the biggest cave system and it is truly amazing. There are areas that have still not been fully explored and it wouldn't shock me in the least if parts connected with Tennessee. Like Tennessee, there is so much diversity in Kentucky but rarely do you see bloggers talk about it.
I live in Oregon and been here all my life, don't plan on leaving due to it's beautiful areas. He forgot the #1 deepest lake in USA: it's in Oregon and it's Crater Lake.
I love y’all’s videos, but I’ve noticed many of the “Best places in the USA” have a tendency to stay only in certain area of my country (mainly west coast, New York area) and have yet to see videos about what they refer to here as “fly-over states”, there are MANY beautiful places that aren’t just on the coastal states, and very interesting areas and massive history aren’t always on the coasts, haha
He touched on plenty of touristy and popular areas. Wyoming is amazing and definitely worth a visit. The southern US is great as well with several national parks like the Great Smoky Mountains, Everglades, Congaree, Dry Tortuga's, and a couple of others. If you have the opportunity to visit the south, definitely do! In regards to the national parks, The Great Smoky Mountains does not have an entry fee (but does require a parking permit) while most of the other parks do charge upon entry.
@@shortshorts920 umm, He says in the video his top 20 Places in the u.s At the beginning of the video. Did you not hear that? Dude, you've been to Bristol. I'm so fckn jealous. That is literally my #1 on the bucket list. The sound has got to be insane.
@@kenmahoney5255 never miss it man. Being 3 hours away it’s like a crime not to go 😂 never gets old. I hit up the nascar races and a lot of the other events there. The one you seen was a Cleetus and Cars event. Sep 2 & 3. Cheap cheap. Lots of fun.
I’m so excited for your family to visit the US. I’m in Oregon so I have biased opinions, of course, to it being one of the most beautiful places to visit! We have Beach, mountains, volcanic fields, canyons, deserts and valleys all in one state! Can’t wait to see your videos from your trip. And yes, I believe he misspelled Yellowstone. 😂. Seemed like he was missing the w. Good catch!
The Oregon Coast is also known for their dunes, covered bridges, & lighthouses. And I mentioned in the last video you watched like this that I was surprised they didn't list Lake Tahoe/Sand Harbor, Yosemite, or the Redwoods. So I'm glad to see it listed here bedside they are truely spectacular. My Aunt was an international flight attendant for 50 years and she's been all over the world. She said Tahoe was the most beautiful place she's ever been. Thx for the video!.
Yes Nadine, he did misspell Yellowstone! As a lifelong New Englander, we’d love it if you visited us here❤! Depending on when you come, I’d love to take y’all to Fenway Park or Gillette Stadium for a game. My treat! Keep us updated on your travel plans. I’m sure I’m not alone in wanting to give you a tour of our home states.
In every state there are different time of the year that have such seasonal changes such as fall colors in the north east. But also, summer fog in the mornings and afternoon on California and western coastal areas. I have traveled to all but 2 states, and all have amazing places to visit from Maine, Washington DC, to California. If you are in southern California, do plan to visit the Channel Islands (off the coast of Santa Barbara) and Santa Catalina Island (part of the Channel Islands). Point Reyes National Seashore, just north of San Fransisco is also amazing. But again, I can pick so many across the country. Enjoy.
Oregonian here, love your videos. I am excited that your family is going to come to America and see the features, culture, and (hopefully) the hospitality. I have been to every state except 9 and have been to many other countries. I love travelling and wish your family the best during your visit. Safe travels.
You guys should do a video on best cities to visit in each region. I may be biased, but Charleston, SC really is a great place for history, food, and an overall fun time.
I grew up in Northern California, lived on the Oregon coast for two years, and now I’ve lived in Alaska for the last seven years. Big Sur is a beautiful drive, as well as the Oregon coast. Alaska’s always beautiful, with great people. I used to drive truck up and down the East coast but I never got to experience New England. That’s where I want to go next. After England and Scotland.
Come to Michigan and see the Mackinac Straits and the Mackinac Bridge, which was once the longest suspension bridge in the world at 5 miles (8 km) long. Colonial Fort Michilimackinac is awesome to see. So much stuff to see in Michigan!
When I was in my early 20s I toured the continental US with 3 of my friends. Our trip started and ended in western PA. We traveled west across the northern states, down the west coast and returned east across the southern states. We put over 10,000 miles on my car in 5 weeks visiting all the major national parks. While camping on the Washington coast we met 2 guys who were taking the same trip by bicycle. They started their trip in central N.Y.
@@John_Redcorn_ some people just learned how to harness the internet and social media to get themselves that lifestyle. But the fact that his family goes to some of these places and rent houseboats, tells me that he's probably Rich to start with
I'd love for you all to visit Hot Springs, AR!!! Let me know if you do! Originally I lived in NJ and spent majority of my time in NYC. I moved to Hot Springs, AR just over 3 years ago and absolutely love it!!
Some of the hiking places in the National Parks require timed entry tickets that sell out months in advance. So please research these now if you're expecting to travel here soon. Also, really pay attention to the expected weather for all of these different regions. The weather extremes in the US can be a real shock to our tourists. Can't wait to see your videos of your travels in the States!
I left to hitchhike the USA the month after I graduated high school in 1971 and saw a number of the sites. The coast highway by Big Sur is amazing. The diverse terrain hugging the ocean from San Diego to Vancouver, British Columbia is stunning. California is but a day away from any type of terrain you can imagine. The desert and rock formations are magical. Snow capped mountains. I truly saw a great deal of the country and lower Canada. STILL, the highlight of my 70 year life was sitting on a beach on Beaver Island in northern Lake Michigan by the Canadian border. Around 8 pm, I saw a shimmering wave of color in the twilight sky. As it became darker the shimmers began brightening in shades of green and yellow. I was mesmerized. When they finally began to dim, I realized it was 3 am. I'd been staring at the night sky for 7 hours yet didn't fell as if it was more than an hour. I could have died right then and felt like I'd been satisfied.
The landscapes he didn’t mention is the national grasslands of north Texas, the badlands which is a moon like surface ( very strange) the swamps of Louisiana or Everglades in Florida, and the mountains of Appalachia, and that doesn’t complete the list either. There are so many diverse landscapes in the US. My wife and I are driving from North Carolina out to the 4 corner states and will spend a couple weeks on holiday in the south western part of the US. Welcome, I really hope your trip is amazing and you both enjoy as well as make some great content to share with your NZ family.
YOU WILL...L💕VE AMERCIA 🇺🇸🦅 I live in CALIFORNIA🏖🇺🇸 Born In Utah.... Their is So Much To See Here Ans alot of The Places You Mentioned That You Would Like To Vist They Are Near By👍🏻🛣
For a first time trip to the United States from New Zealand, going to California makes a lot of sense. There is such a variety of landscapes, and things to do in the towns and cities. On the way back, Kauai is a great place to take a vacation from the vacation (Napali Coast, Waimea Canyon, Hanalei Bay). Kauai would be a vary calming transition back to the lovely country of New Zealand.
In my home state of Texas, we have the second largest Canyon in the USA. Palo Duro Canyon and nearby is the Canyon Museum that tells the history of the Texas panhandle with dinosaurs and oil wells.
Lake Tahoe is COLD x5 even in July or August. Went to Yosemite last year. Pictures don't do it justice. And BIG. You can't even sense how massive and grand the area is. Research before going about where to stay. There are very, very limited lodgings/accommodations/services within the park ($$$) and if you stay outside of the park it is quite a drive to get into the park. The map is deceiving because of the changes in elevation and speed limits. Over crowded and hot in July-August. Try May to Mid June. I was with a gal-pal at end of June. It was in the upper 80s(F). From gate entrances it is 1.5 hrs drive to get to the valley floor where the hub of activity is. Great for camping if you can get a spot. RESERVE EARLY! YT has some great vids and tips. Luv yr channel! Don't forget to wear and use yr merch when you come! 😘
I was born and raised in Boston, then lived in San Francisco for over 10 years, then moved to San Diego for a few years. Then I moved to Denver Colorado for 3 years. Now that I’m retired, we settled here in Phoenix Arizona. I didn’t really appreciate how fortunate I was with my travels and living locations until I came across your RUclips channel. Thank you all for reminding me of how amazing this country is. ❤️❤️❤️ I can’t wait to see and here about your trip here!
There is so much more..he left out the entire American South and Midwest. The Smoky Mountains, Blue Ridge Mountains, The Ozark Mountains..Colorado, beautiful lakes up north, all the beauty and history of Virginia..I could go on and on... The US has so many lovely places. Don't limit yourself to the West Coast and NYC.
That video should be called the “Top 24 Places to Visit in the US if you like to Hike and Jump in Lakes, + NYC.” Don’t get me wrong: all those places are great. Beautiful scenery, interaction w nature, etc. But there are so many other kinds of attractions in the US other than that particular “type” of outdoor attraction. Both natural (eg Everglades) and man-made (eg Mount Rushmore, Gateway Arch, Hoover Dam, Washington Monument & Lincoln Memorial). Not to mention the food/culture of cities/regions (New Orleans, Chicago, Kansas City) and other random stuff like the Field of Dreams in Iowa, Graceland in Memphis or Churchill Downs in Louisville.
Stay away from tourist traps like the ones this guy mentions. Unless you want to blast through your funds real quick. A good city to visit is Washington D.C.. All the National Museums are free of charge. And plenty of history. National Parks are a definite must, though.
I've lived almost all my life in Massachusetts (except for 4 years in NYC during graduate school), so I'm a little biased to including New England in your travel plans, but all the locations he mentioned are incredible....and are places I have to visit!
I live on Vinalhaven island off the coast of Rockland Maine....Have been to the Pacific Northwest, Lived in Lacey Wa. just south of Seattle, Lived in Milwaukee Oregon just south of Portland.... by far the most beautiful in all of the US.... but Maine is forever home and most beautiful to me.
I never got to see some of these until I was a truck driver. Multnomah Falls & Devil's Tower were exceptionally memorable. Gotta remember, tho--the US covers a LOT of real estate! The US is one of the largest countries on the planet. No quick trips from NYC to Hollywood!
I grew up in Northern California in the Monterey Bay area, Santa Cruz to be precise, so Big Sur, Lake Tahoe, Yosemite, Golden Gate Bridge, and the scenic Highway 1 drive are some of my favorite stomping grounds. It's fun to see your family wear Santa Cruz merch. That logo has expanded it's territory to all over the world now, but it was just a local symbol when I was growing up.
This list was severely unbalanced, honestly. The first third of it was all on the west coast, the next third all on the east coast, and the final third 100% in the Rocky mountains. Which, those are all valid places, but he left out two thirds of the country, entirely. No mention at all of Niagara, or the great lakes, or Cedar Point, or Chicago, or St. Louis, or Mammoth Cave, no mention of any museums or zoos, nothing about the Appalachian Trail or the Smokey Mountains, nothing about Louisiana, nothing about St. Augustine or Gettysburg, no mention of Orlando, or Atlanta, or Cinci, or Nashville, or any part of Texas, ...
Isn't crime up in New York City? An then Skid Row in California is got more tents then campgrounds I saw on the news. I don't know. I'm in a unincorporated town in God's country. Don't have any Big City Problems so far and I like it like that.
I love that you will be coming to the US. Keep in mind that America is 4,466 km east to west (between New York and Las Angeles). And it is 2,500 km from north to south. America is vast! It took me 4 days to drive from San Diego, California to Indianapolis, Indiana driving 8 hours a day. Getting a snapshot of the United States in one trip would be almost impossible. You would need to spend months to visit every place in this video. You will want to come back again and again to see it all. We welcome you.
I was lucky enough to have a job here that traveled to most of these places. I can say with 100% certainty. That this is just the tip of the iceberg. There are THOUSANDS of hidden gems in America. One of my personal favorites I called Gold Mountain. In fall all the leaves glistened with golden color. And I'll never take anyone there. Or tell anyone it's location. 😊
I've been to Kauai on the Napali Coast and honestly of everywhere I've been in the US that sticks out to me the most. Mind blowing. Grand Canyon is also iconic. You truly can't go wrong though. Have fun!
I live in Oregon so I've been to most of the California and Oregon sites, been to most of Washington as well. Been to Nevada, Montana, Wyoming, Idaho, and Louisiana but actually I've traveled more out of country than in. After my trip to Louisiana, I generally stay away from the south because my tolerance for heat is NULL, well heat and humidity combo. If you ever get to visit Oregon I can recommend taking your time going to our coast, to Crater Lake, through the Gorge and down to the painted hills in Eastern. The Painted Hills are in the desert area of Oregon by our fossil beds and the hills look like they've been painted with yellow and red. But PLEASE don't try to do this all in one day. Also remember Crater Lake USE to be a mountain/volcano only part of it fell into itself so bring a variety of clothing and shoe wear for here. I believe Shawn from Scotland went there in the year that the rain never stopped and was surprised about all the snow. For me my favorite places in Oregon is the coast, any, though we typically go to Lincoln City because our favorite restaurant is in Depot Bay which is near by but doesn't have amazing beach access, oh and that restaurants name is called Gracie's Sea Hagg. I love our Beaches because you can't purchase our beaches so it's publicly owed and as long as you find parking and public beach access you can wander to your heart's content. My second favorite place would be the Columbia River Gorge. I did Search and Rescue which means we pulled people out of the woods among other things as well. It's gorgeous to hike, take pictures, and see the waterfalls. I use to windsurf and that is where I did it up in Hood River. If you visit during our fall going to Hood River and going through the Fruit Loop is amazing, that area grows amazing apples and other fruits. Wherever you go I hope you have fun!
I have to say growing up in NY I came to appreciate Broadway, The Statue of Liberty, The Museum of Natural History, The Hayden Planetarium , The Museum of Modern Art, The Guggenheim, Yankee Stadium and so much more. I now live in South Florida, also known as paradise. If you can, NY should be number one on your list of destinations. The cultural aspects for the kids is unmatched.
I’ve been to all of the western states except for Hawaii and Alaska (going this summer). I live in Vegas. My favorites are Yosemite high country, the Tetons and Zion. My favorite city is Seattle. Btw thats not what all of Idaho looks like. There’s forest and lakes too. It’s beautiful up there. You could honestly spend your life traveling the US. There’s so much to see here, thats why a lot of Americans don’t have passports
I have been to a lot of those places. My FAVORITE ones are the Arizona National parks. There are many National Monuments too in AZ you may want to see. Many have ancient Native American ruins that are nothing less than spectacular.
I'm an east coast person, and I cannot recommend New England highly enough! You are missing so much of the US if you don't stop there. Compared to the rest, the states in New England are very small, Takes no time to go from the beautiful beaches to tapping maple trees to seeing any major league sports event (Boston Bruins, ice hockey, are the hottest team in the NHL), to visiting the literally countless historic sites, go whale watching, chow down on a Maine lobster roll, and always take the 'back roads'...acres of stunning tall pines and birch trees, horse farms, apple orchards, real stone walls...my favorite place on earth.
Yes, he spelled Yellowstone wrong. We have driven the Oregon/California coast and it is beautiful. The redwoods are definitely a sight to see. One of my favorite spots along the coast is Big Sur. I am disappointed that he never mentioned the Grand Canyon (the most spectacular place I have ever seen) or Glacier National Park. East coast autumns are also truly a sight to behold. I wish you great luck in your decisions for your upcoming trip.
If you are into America, as much as you all appear to be, then you have to go to Washington DC. You could spend weeks visiting the buildings, museums, and historical landmarks. Not to mention the surrounding areas of Virginia and Maryland.
Would love for you all to see the Great Smoky mountains here in Tennessee You guys would love it Yosemite is a beautiful place Utah too I'm American and I'm going to be seeing California for the first time in June I'm so excited!!!!
I'm sure your trip will be amazing, just remember to be realistic when making your plans. The mistake that many from other countries make is thinking everything is close together, and it really is not. Be sure to have alternate plans and plan for another trip or more to the US. Oh, also, Colorado has Great Sand Dunes National Park too, since you thought that was cool in Idaho. Enjoy your trip!
As a native Idahoan I can tell you Idaho is one of the most geographic diverse states in the union. You can go from beautiful deserts to dense forrest in a couple hours drive. Idaho is an outdoor enthusiasts dream. Great video fam!!!
I lived in Rexburg for a couple months, along with frequent annual visits from Utah. The dunes are an amazing place. From the Rexburg area, the Teton Mountains are visible. In my personal opinion, the national park is very overrated, because the best view of the mountains is the one in Idaho, by far.
Oh my,Sam you got Atlanta again. Lol😅.. This needs to be a running gag .. P S. I Live in Oregon,born in Astoria..(Goonies).. I have to say it is a beautiful place to live.
It’s a common misconception that the first Thanksgiving was in Massachusetts, but it was actually held in Virginia at Jamestown. Yes, he spelled Yellowstone wrong. He left out the W.
If you drive 101 through Oregon. You have too make sure, you stop at 48 flavors Ice Cream shop. Just on the north end of Florence OR. They make all their Ice Cream in house. I recommend the blueberry cheesecake & raspberry cheesecake Ice Cream. On one of their hand made waffle cones. Another good stop is the cheese factory down in Tilikum. the Cheese curds are the best I have ever ate.
I’m so stoked you guys recognized Lake Tahoe, one of my favorite places on earth! I grew up about three hours away, we used to come up every summer. And in fact, I am randomly here right now! Just got into town about an hour and a half ago!! 😊♥️🎉
I'm really partial to California/Oregon for all outdoorsy type of people. You could get lost in awesomeness by a coastal drive on the Hiway#1/#101 from Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk up to Crater Lake and over into Ocean Shores WA. Following along the Oregon Trail, visit the Last Blockbuster Video, and swing over to Las Vegas and Hoover Dam to Arizona and through to the OK Corral in Tombstone. I have many favorites, but that little bit you can take a couple weeks right there.
Ever since I was little I always wanted to go to lake Tahoe. Finally went to lake Tahoe this past January and it was more than I thought it would be. I've been told it's even more beautiful in the summer. Can't wait to go back
Hello, just found you guy a few days ago,love your channel. I live in NW Oregon which I have been told is alot like New Zealand. My Wife and I have talked to alot of your fellow Country men very nice people indeed. Look forword to more from you all. Craig & Marie
Hi fam! So excited you're able to come to the U.S! If you end up in Ohio, I recommend the Hocking Hills in Southern Ohio, especially a place called Rock House. It's a nature made rock formation in the shape of a house. Love you fam!
Okay I’ve traveled a great deal in my life. I’ve driven across the country several times due to family circumstances, and now I’m trying to go to all 50 states! Honestly, I didn’t think much of the southeast US, and the northeast US is much better. There’s a lot more to see. But the western US is the best. I love the southwest, and I also love the northwest, although they’re very different!
One of the best things about the U.S. is the diversity of climates. Very Beautiful. I am going to the Grand Canyon and other amazing places over the summer, so I am very excited. I hope you guys get to enjoy the beautiful places the U.S. has to offer! Love y'all's videos! I would love to see some more try not to laughs! Much love from Panama City Florida!
Hope you enjoy the Grand Canyon. It is beautiful! Don't forget to have lots of water with you and stay hydrated! If you aren't used to the extreme dry climate you can dehydrate very quickly, and sunburn very quickly too.
@@jonok42 seriously!! My favorite place is Arches National Park and Moab. You can never plan Too Much water!! Even in the Spring those places can get HOT🔥🥵!!
@@lianabaddley8217 that's very true, but even at 80 or 85F it still will quickly suck all moisture from your body. People don't even realize they are dehydrated until it's almost too late. Especially if they come from humid areas. The desert is dangerous.
@j nokes I went kayaking and got sun burnt badly. I have learned my lesson. I definitely won’t be forgetting to put on sun screen. Besides that, i am very excited. I’m still young, so going around the country is going to be much more fun the older I get. Thanks for letting me know your information!
As usual, there are a few people in the comments saying not to visit Seattle (or NYC or SF). I live in downtown Seattle and it's not like the media likes to portray it... not as bad anyway. As with any big city, there are places to avoid and times of day to not be out and about. Just do a little homework before you visit. I used to frequently hang out downtown until midnight, but since the pandemic there aren't quite as many tourists and late night venues open, so I'm back home by about 9 most nights. If you come here, ride the ferry, go up in the Space Needle, see the Chihuly glassworks, go to Pike Market, take in a baseball game, hang out on South Lake Union, take the Underground Tour. Enjoy your US visit!
Hi New Zealand family! Hope you had a Happy Easter! I am so happy that your family is going to the US. Have an amazing time! I have been to the Oregon coast which is absolutely beautiful! Oregon is a gorgeous state! My cousins live there. That is probably my favorite from the list! I have also been to Seattle which was a lot of fun! I have done the Redwood Muir forest near San Francisco. Boston is such a fun city with a lot of history! I am so excited to see which places you and your family end up visiting on your trip! 😊
Another wonderful National Park to see is the Pictured Rock National Lakeshore along Lake Superior in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. We also have right by it Kitch-iti-kipi (Big Springs), plus Mackinac Island which is a whole different experience. We get visitors from all over the world that come and visit.
Yes, Nadine he did spell Yellowstone wrong. There are also SOOOOOO many places other than Seattle to go. Mt Rainier, Mt St Helens, Hurricane Ridge, La Push, Grand Coulee, Dry Falls, and so many more. I hope you decide on some amazing places since the US is so much larger than New Zealand. All my best, enjoy when you come to the US for the first time.
While visiting northern California, be sure to book a tour of Rancho Obi Wan (appointment required) in Petaluma. It's home of the largest Star Wars collections in the world!
So, I wish this video had included the Badlands in South Dakota. It is my favorite place. I can’t wait to go back. While there you could visit Mount Rushmore and the Black Hills. South Dakota is worth looking into. Then you could come into Iowa where there are a lot of small towns who would love to be your host.
That lighthouse during the Oregon portion is Heceta Head Lighthouse in Florence, Oregon. I live about fifteen minutes away in Mapelton in the rainforest.
We lived in Los Angeles, when I was in high school, and we would make two trips to Yosemite each year; one in the spring - when the snows were melting and feeding the falls and Merced river. And once each fall to see the trees turn. We would stay at a small hotel just outside the park and drive in each morning, to spend the day. We rented bikes and rode through the valley. Our hotel was right on the Merced river and that's what you heard going to sleep.🥰👍💯😁
I'm kinda sad the video didn't mention Michigan. I feel like sometimes it gets overlooked despite it looking like a literal mitten or hand✋. In Michigan, there is Sleepy Bear Dunes. My family has gone to Frankfort to visit Lake Michigan and Sleepy Bear Dunes. It's incredible. There is also of course the Great Lakes to visit. You can remember them with HOMES; Huron, Ontario, Michigan, Erie, Superior. There is also the Mackinac Bridge and the Henry Ford museum, along with the Detroit Zoo. They are all great places to visit. Okay, just had to throw it out there.
i did alot of that trip during covid. i bought a travel trailer and took my mom and her boyfriend. we live in NY and took the northern route to S. Dakota, and Wyoming. i could spend months there its just so beautiful. then headed to Idaho through utah into Nevada(lake tahoe) California was on fire and smoke was heading our way so we didnt stay to long. after Nevada we started heading back east through Arizona(grand canyon) New Mexico and so on. the U.S. really is beautiful but i will say that every time i leave, no matter where i go, coming back to NY and seeing that skyline is always my favorite. when you guys come here i really do recommend just renting a RV. you will do and see so much more. when you stay in hotels you waste so much time doing nothing. in a RV you will see so much more just on your down time driving and you can choose to stay or leave a place.thats what we did. we didnt really make any definite destinations. we had the big ones we wanted to see but in between we just found BLM which is public land in America managed by the Bureau of Land Management that you can camp at for free. we found this place totally of the grid one night. when we woke up we where totally surounded by bison. just increadible
Hi, Thanks for sharing. I live about an hour West of Boston, Ma. There is a lot of history in the area. If you would like any further information(like where to possibly see a moose) just ask. :)
I live in New York State and of course everyone knows and loves New York City. There’s just so much to it however, New York State also is home to a number of incredible national parks. If you ever come to New York state, I hope you look into the parks here as well❤
Omg you need to go to hocking hills, Ohio. It’s gorgeous it’s in the country side of Ohio and you will see many cows and horses. Their are many cabins to rent in the awsome woods their. The woods is like split half pine and half oak and ect. The caves often have spear heads and waterfalls. We own a cabin down their and it is one of my fav places to camp not hunt tho. If you are to hunt I recommend going to Belmont county Ohio it’s a great place to deer, turkey and coyote hunt.
Nadine, he definitely spelled Yellowstone wrong 🤣
Indeed, and it's Pike Place, not Pikes Place.
What is her name with the pink shirt and black shorts
@@johnhipp604 the daughters name is Atlanta
@@wishwise0Thank you! I wanted to say the same thing.
Also, Yellowstone was so beautiful it inspired Teddy Roosevelt to create the National Park Service to preserve such wonders. He *influenced* a railroad to build a line there and put up a hotel for tourists to promote the park and the program. The National Park Service survives to this day. Thanks, Teddo.
That would be Yosemite, I believe.
That's Yosemite
Would be nice to see a video of all the beautiful places in New Zealand! Just a suggestion :)
Seconding this!
I agree!
I’ve seen the Lord of the Rings😉
@@JoeMama410 I haven't. For obvious reasons 😂 jk
I agree
Nadine said she wants to go to the Salt Flats, so here's a bit of trivia for your trip about it! The scene in "Independence Day" where Will Smith is dragging the Alien across the Salt Flats and talking, then suddenly yells out "And what the Hell is that smell?!" makes people think it's part of his lines and he's talking about the Alien, but in reality it was unscripted! As he was dragging the parachute with the Alien in it, it was digging into the salt and released the rotten smell of the decaying Brine Shrimp in it! The Director knew it would happen but didn't warn Will to see how and if he would react to it, and he obviously did! lol! So, be aware that as you drive/walk across the Bonneville Salt Flats you may come across an odor if you disturb the Salt down to the moist layer! 🤢😂
I did not know that. How often do they have "cars" there trying to break speed records?
@@throughthoroughthought8064 Mostly around the end of August for a few days at a time, and parts of September. The area that's used for the high top speed trials "usually" isn't too bad smelling depending on the weather they've had leading up to it. Rain will put in moisture (of course!) and cause bacteria to grow till it dries up and cause a sulfer/dead fish ocean smell, but the land speed record area has been packed down from use so much it doesn't release a lot of odor, or at least not as much as other areas that are lower elevation and hold more water when it rains and from groundwater seepage.
Iots of movies film there.
I am shocked the badlands of North and South Dakota didn't make the cut. But I know there's so many cool places that don't - I lived in Wisconsin and the coasts along the great lakes there and in Michigan should be seen too. There's just so much beauty here, it's hard to make a concise list.
I would start by eliminating the big cities but I'm not a city person
I would have thrown out NYC from this list lol full of crime and filth
I remember standing on the shore of Lake Superior in the UP, looking out over the lake and thinking there was nothing between me and the north pole. :-) Not true, of course, but it looks that way.
The badlands go a lot further south than the Dakotas. They go through Nebraska, Wyoming, and Kansas
I visited Badlands for the first time ever 6 months ago and it was incredible!! Loved it.
So many states were skipped that have such beautiful places... Tennessee, Kentucky, Texas, Carolinas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Virginia to name just a few. Almost every state has their own beautiful, unique spots.
Minnesota too with the great lakes also wisconsion amd michigan
He’s probably a liberal lol. Cuz let’s be serious ny smells like piss. 😂 that’s where he lost me
yeah pretty easy to tell this list was made by someone who lived on the west coast their whole lives lol.
Been all over this country. Tennessee has some of the most beautiful landscape I've ever seen
Texas... not really.
I live in Massachusetts & my brother moved to Arizona, I decided to road trip to see him. I stopped in North Carolina to see/pick up my nephew who's in the Army. We took 5 days to get to AZ & just stopped at all the wonderful sights. It was a magical trip that was filled with so many memories
I did the same between enlistments (and yep, Fort Bragg was one place I was stationed). Vermont to Fort Carson, to Northern CA, down the coast to AZ and back before my re-enlistment. Mostly slept outside and linked up with my Army buddies and family in a couple spots! Glad you and he got that trip in!
Hello hello mass resident.
Massachusetts has urban and rural. Out west, it’s similar to Vermont: tons of colors in the fall, tall mountains, and amazing views. Boston is such an underrated city. I truly hope they don’t skip Massachusetts!
@@aidanwhittier5187 I am from Vermont and I approve this message LOL
Julie Sclock Thank you for doing that for your nephew 🤩
One of the most sneakily amazing things I experienced in the USA was the BWCA in northern Minnesota. Went days without seeing another human; and it was the most incredibly beautiful scenery. We saw moose and bears, heard wolves and loons, saw a million animals and caught all sorts of fresh water fish. So much fun; unspoiled; unmarked nature but was still much more hospitable than other very remote places. Lots of folks still had guides from my understanding because getting lost is very possible.
Ooooooh that sounds amazing! Especially the bit about going days without seeing another human 😅 as a native Oregonian from Portland… I can only dream 💓
You guys could always come to America, buy an RV and travel the country. Home school and make YT videos to pay for it all. Happy Easter!!! 🐰🐇
You only have a max of 90 days on visa waiver for tourism. Work of any kind is absolutely forbidden, so take your pics & videos, edit them back home & then post or you get hit with US income taxes & a visa violation which can permanently ban you from US! US taxes payable on WORLDWIDE INCOME, including what you earn in NZ. Do NOT mess with IRS!
@@ibuguru US income tax on worldwide income only applies if you are a US citizen and lived in the US for more then half the year.
@@sallystark1032 False. "US persons" - not just US citizens - are taxed on worldwide income even if they never set foot in US. MIGHT be eligible for Foreign Earned Income Exclusion (FEIC) IF lived outside US for the entire fiscal/calendar year, or legally resident in foreign country. Consult your tax attorney - ONLY one experienced with this complicated issue!
Hawaii is such a beautiful state, I've been there twice and enjoyed it immensely. Yosemite National Park is a must, it's perfect for tourism and camping; El Capitan, Half Dome, any of the falls and just plain hiking is worth the trip. There is so much to do there since they have a few main entrances; the southern entrance has these wonderful growths called snow plants that are really pretty. I've talked to people from all over the world when I took the John Muir Trail to hike up towards Half Dome. Enjoy the U.S. and take plenty of photos, videos, souvenirs, etc. when you come this year :D
Very west coast heavy. I’m surprised nothing was mentioned in the center part of the country. So much more than Florida, New York, and Maine on the east coast as well.
There's a good reason.. you build it, 2 weeks later a tornado takes it away.
@@michaeljones-ol5du 😂 false
I would've enjoy 3/4 of these places.
🤮
He’s talking about where he traveled and what he liked .
I agree
Kentucky and Ohio have some really cool cave tours also. 😊
Also Carlsbad caverns are supposed to be amazing
@@occheermommy I went there when I was about 9. It was so amazing I was stunned. I couldn't believe how beautiful it was there.
As a native Oregonian, I'm of course partial to the Oregon sites. There are so many beautiful spots to stop & enjoy on Interstate 101 (Coast Highway) My favorite is Cape Purgatory. There are hiking trails and steps down to the water area where you can see, and feel, the water come in! So awe inspiring!!!
I do agree with Nat, that the Northern Lights should be on everyone's bucket list!!!
So many places did not make his list, and so many places to see America’s diverse beauty! It would be so cool to see other America top 10s or top 25s reviewed by your family! ❤🇺🇸🇳🇿
I was thinking that some of my favorite places were not mentioned, but these are without a doubt amazing spots.
I'm 62 years old and have been in every state in the USA except Alaska. You really need years of traveling to fully appreciate the United States. I would never live anywhere else. I did all of it by car, and camper (except Hawaii of course). On the road is the best way to see the United States, and many of the best places are actually the small towns 😎😎
You need to go to Alaska, if you can. I've been to all 50 states and I can tell you that Alaska is the most beautiful state that I have ever visited. I've been twice and loved it both times.
Kiwis wanna come here, and Yanks wanna go there.😅
I have been to many of these places, but Acadia (near Bar Harbor) in Maine is by far my favorite. If you ever venture to Bar Harbor definitely do Cadillac Mountain at sunrise; you will be the first on the continental US to see the sunrise! Make sure you get there very early for parking. Thunder Hole is also neat to see in Acadia, but it is at its finest right before a storm, otherwise it isn't as impressive.
So happy to see you guys planning where to visit here in the USA. Sad to say that most Americans never get to see these places unless they live there. It took me moving overseas to realize how beautiful, how green, how expansive this country is and I couldn't wait to get back home. This country is in the fight of its life right now and I hope we can ALL appreciate this gift from God. ❤❤
Then do something about it,stop being owned by politicians.
Agreed, there a bunch of fools being led astray by FNC et al. But our God is a powerful God. We've arrested the evil trump and once he is jailed, we can begin to heal.
@@leslieallen7070 More like stop permitting politicians to be 'owned' by the uber wealthy... but roughly the same thing... just stated 2 different ways.
I hope you guys know that when we look at videos of New Zealand, we have the same reaction that you’re having to America!
There are a bazillion scenic places in the US. That's only the beginning! Every state has its own special type of landscape and unique features. Some well-known, some not so well known but just as beautiful and intriguing. Sometimes you find the coolest places and the nicest people on the roads less traveled and away from the cities. I can't wait to see your reactions when you come here and experience our country in person.
I say visit NYC via Google maps then visit the good places in person.
Yes! This video they watched only covered the West Coast, the Southwest, and New York City and New England, but there are plenty more awesome things to see in other parts of the U.S.
@@martyklestadt6766 Exactly. Where were our beautiful southern states? (Florida is another topic).
I feel so so proud whenever Seattle and the PNW is shown 💚💙🏔️🏞️🌧️🌲☔☕🥰 We have amazing National and State parks here to explore. I've loved growing up around the massive mountains and the ocean on the other side. I feel very easily lost when I travel to a flat place that's inland. 😂
As a lifelong Oregonian who just moved over the river to WA, I concur! 🤗
I just took a road trip last month from Seattle to Dallas, Texas. We got to see some really beautiful places including Arches National Park in Utah, and Santa Fe, New Mexico. This past weekend we drove over Snoqualmie Pass to Eastern Washington - and I always come back to feeling we live in the most beautiful place!! I absolutely love Mount Rainier. So yes, totally agree with that feeling of pride!
When we retire, or if you are just independently wealthy, you live in a motorhome and stay on the move and probably still never see everything. (Would need a passport to get to Alaska through Canada, but not that hard). The road to Alaska was a dirt road not all that long ago.
As a lifelong resident of California I have been privileged to know how beautiful it is. (Avoid political discussions at all costs, folks here are extreme). But having a home on Lake Tahoe, I can tell you it is equally amazing in the winter. Also having lived in Humboldt, go see the trees but spend some time going through the small towns. They are cool in their own right. Buried among the redwoods you can find a family owned cheese factory (cows in the field outside) that will let you participate in the process. And another that makes fresh pressed apple cider that will change your life. Also, be on the lookout for Bigfoot, he was first discovered among those trees.
Edited to add a comment. This video does cover a lot of territory mostly natural and he does a very good job of describing the positives.
For some strange reason though, the most popular videos ,the ones that are most often reacted to about the USA are heavily West and West Coast. Every now and then they'll throw in some Florida or New England, but they never talk about the beauty of the South or mid west, Great Lakes etc. . I can't help but wonder if these bloggers have something against coming to the South or flyover states. There's some absolutely gorgeous places to visit beginning with the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and the surrounding areas 8n TN, NC, VA, KY or, the beaches of the East Coast especially Carolina beaches . I guess most people are a little bit familiar with Florida but if you haven't studied the Florida panhandle and Gulf Coast beaches are the prettiest.
My home state of Tennessee not only has the beautiful Great Smoky Mountains in the east but the state has some of the largest cave systems in the world and some beautiful lakes and rivers set deep between the high rolling hills. If you like fishing camping and boating it's the place to be.
Then there's beauty to be found in Alabama Georgia Mississippi. People know a little more about Southern Louisiana but all three of those States have beautiful beaches on the Gulf of Mexico as well as Forest Hills caves etc.
I have searched the internet and I cannot find videos exclusively about the natural beauty of the South. There are lots of videos about how to do a road trip to the South and they mentioned some of the beautiful places but they're more heavily focus on the history and the cities of the South rather than the natural beauty. I do strongly recommend that you check out some videos about visiting the South before planning your trip.
Mammoth Cave in Kentucky has the biggest cave system and it is truly amazing. There are areas that have still not been fully explored and it wouldn't shock me in the least if parts connected with Tennessee. Like Tennessee, there is so much diversity in Kentucky but rarely do you see bloggers talk about it.
Yes! I thought the same. Obviously, his focus is only on places HE has been. Our Southern states are beautiful and should not be overlooked.
beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Perhaps what you think is beautiful he does not….
I live in Oregon and been here all my life, don't plan on leaving due to it's beautiful areas. He forgot the #1 deepest lake in USA: it's in Oregon and it's Crater Lake.
I love y’all’s videos, but I’ve noticed many of the “Best places in the USA” have a tendency to stay only in certain area of my country (mainly west coast, New York area) and have yet to see videos about what they refer to here as “fly-over states”, there are MANY beautiful places that aren’t just on the coastal states, and very interesting areas and massive history aren’t always on the coasts, haha
Yep, like the Buffalo Bill Cody Museum in North Platte, Nebraska.
@@gaileverett exactly
He touched on plenty of touristy and popular areas. Wyoming is amazing and definitely worth a visit. The southern US is great as well with several national parks like the Great Smoky Mountains, Everglades, Congaree, Dry Tortuga's, and a couple of others. If you have the opportunity to visit the south, definitely do! In regards to the national parks, The Great Smoky Mountains does not have an entry fee (but does require a parking permit) while most of the other parks do charge upon entry.
The Great Smokey Mtn park is also the most visited in the US. Idk how this guy missed showing it.
@@shortshorts920it's places he's been to and his favorites. Pay attention.
@@kenmahoney5255 then it needs to be called MY top 25 places.

Places in the u.s
At the beginning of the video. Did you not hear that? Dude, you've been to Bristol. I'm so fckn jealous. That is literally my #1 on the bucket list. The sound has got to be insane.
@@kenmahoney5255 never miss it man. Being 3 hours away it’s like a crime not to go 😂 never gets old. I hit up the nascar races and a lot of the other events there. The one you seen was a Cleetus and Cars event. Sep 2 & 3. Cheap cheap. Lots of fun.
I’m so excited for your family to visit the US. I’m in Oregon so I have biased opinions, of course, to it being one of the most beautiful places to visit! We have Beach, mountains, volcanic fields, canyons, deserts and valleys all in one state! Can’t wait to see your videos from your trip. And yes, I believe he misspelled Yellowstone. 😂. Seemed like he was missing the w. Good catch!
The Oregon Coast is also known for their dunes, covered bridges, & lighthouses. And I mentioned in the last video you watched like this that I was surprised they didn't list Lake Tahoe/Sand Harbor, Yosemite, or the Redwoods. So I'm glad to see it listed here bedside they are truely spectacular. My Aunt was an international flight attendant for 50 years and she's been all over the world. She said Tahoe was the most beautiful place she's ever been. Thx for the video!.
Yes Nadine, he did misspell Yellowstone!
As a lifelong New Englander, we’d love it if you visited us here❤! Depending on when you come, I’d love to take y’all to Fenway Park or Gillette Stadium for a game. My treat! Keep us updated on your travel plans. I’m sure I’m not alone in wanting to give you a tour of our home states.
We have the oldest tree on record as well. It’s called Methuselah and it’s over 4,000 years old.
In every state there are different time of the year that have such seasonal changes such as fall colors in the north east. But also, summer fog in the mornings and afternoon on California and western coastal areas. I have traveled to all but 2 states, and all have amazing places to visit from Maine, Washington DC, to California. If you are in southern California, do plan to visit the Channel Islands (off the coast of Santa Barbara) and Santa Catalina Island (part of the Channel Islands). Point Reyes National Seashore, just north of San Fransisco is also amazing. But again, I can pick so many across the country. Enjoy.
The season you visit is also, in my opinion, important. Late spring or early fall eliminates the hot summers and really cold winters.
So you're basically saying they shouldn't come to Florida. lol
Sorry If I were them I would not visit Florida in the Summer, same with the southwest. Save those places for Winter fall or spring.
Oregonian here, love your videos. I am excited that your family is going to come to America and see the features, culture, and (hopefully) the hospitality. I have been to every state except 9 and have been to many other countries. I love travelling and wish your family the best during your visit. Safe travels.
You guys should do a video on best cities to visit in each region. I may be biased, but Charleston, SC really is a great place for history, food, and an overall fun time.
I agree! There are many great places to visit in our southern states.
Yep, agreed...I love Savannah & Charleston!
Charleston and Savannah are two of my favorite cities that I've visited.
I grew up in Northern California, lived on the Oregon coast for two years, and now I’ve lived in Alaska for the last seven years. Big Sur is a beautiful drive, as well as the Oregon coast. Alaska’s always beautiful, with great people. I used to drive truck up and down the East coast but I never got to experience New England. That’s where I want to go next. After England and Scotland.
Come to Michigan and see the Mackinac Straits and the Mackinac Bridge, which was once the longest suspension bridge in the world at 5 miles (8 km) long. Colonial Fort Michilimackinac is awesome to see. So much stuff to see in Michigan!
I second this!
Another Michigander here.... I third this,
Michigan is amazing. Sleeping Bear, Pictured Rocks, and so much more.
When I was in my early 20s I toured the continental US with 3 of my friends. Our trip started and ended in western PA. We traveled west across the northern states, down the west coast and returned east across the southern states. We put over 10,000 miles on my car in 5 weeks visiting all the major national parks. While camping on the Washington coast we met 2 guys who were taking the same trip by bicycle. They started their trip in central N.Y.
That’s amazing. Where at in Western PA. My family is from New Castle outside Pittsburgh.
@@occheermommy Oil City. That trip changed my life, I left Oil City later that year. There was a whole country to explore.
As an American, I've sadly never been to many of these places. Real life just unfortunately happens. But I hope to see them someday.
Same
That's a shame.
Idk where ppl like that guy get enough money to do all this stuff 🤷♂️
@@John_Redcorn_ Probably rich and just travels
@@John_Redcorn_ some people just learned how to harness the internet and social media to get themselves that lifestyle. But the fact that his family goes to some of these places and rent houseboats, tells me that he's probably Rich to start with
If you’ve been there you know Zion national park deserves its spot at the top of the list.
I'd love for you all to visit Hot Springs, AR!!! Let me know if you do! Originally I lived in NJ and spent majority of my time in NYC. I moved to Hot Springs, AR just over 3 years ago and absolutely love it!!
Some of the hiking places in the National Parks require timed entry tickets that sell out months in advance. So please research these now if you're expecting to travel here soon. Also, really pay attention to the expected weather for all of these different regions. The weather extremes in the US can be a real shock to our tourists. Can't wait to see your videos of your travels in the States!
I gave them the same advice!!
I left to hitchhike the USA the month after I graduated high school in 1971 and saw a number of the sites. The coast highway by Big Sur is amazing. The diverse terrain hugging the ocean from San Diego to Vancouver, British Columbia is stunning. California is but a day away from any type of terrain you can imagine. The desert and rock formations are magical. Snow capped mountains. I truly saw a great deal of the country and lower Canada. STILL, the highlight of my 70 year life was sitting on a beach on Beaver Island in northern Lake Michigan by the Canadian border. Around 8 pm, I saw a shimmering wave of color in the twilight sky. As it became darker the shimmers began brightening in shades of green and yellow. I was mesmerized. When they finally began to dim, I realized it was 3 am. I'd been staring at the night sky for 7 hours yet didn't fell as if it was more than an hour. I could have died right then and felt like I'd been satisfied.
That’s amazing. Plus it was the year I was born so great year all around.
Wow, what an adventure. I envy that experience.
Happy Easter New Zealand Family! 😊🐣🐇🌺🌷💐🙏🏻🕊
I find it interesting that the SECOND MOST populous and SECOND biggest state in the U.S. was completely skipped. TEXAS.
The landscapes he didn’t mention is the national grasslands of north Texas, the badlands which is a moon like surface ( very strange) the swamps of Louisiana or Everglades in Florida, and the mountains of Appalachia, and that doesn’t complete the list either. There are so many diverse landscapes in the US. My wife and I are driving from North Carolina out to the 4 corner states and will spend a couple weeks on holiday in the south western part of the US.

Ans alot of The Places You Mentioned That You Would Like To Vist
They
Are Near By👍🏻🛣
If you go to California, go to San Diego for the Zoo and the Naval Base. It would take you 2 or 3 days to see even half of the zoo.
The SD Wild Animal Park is even better than the downtown Zoo. Scripps Aquarium in La Jolla (pronounced Lah Hoy yah) is a don't-miss, too.
The SD Zoo does amazing work and is wonderful!
For a first time trip to the United States from New Zealand, going to California makes a lot of sense. There is such a variety of landscapes, and things to do in the towns and cities. On the way back, Kauai is a great place to take a vacation from the vacation (Napali Coast, Waimea Canyon, Hanalei Bay). Kauai would be a vary calming transition back to the lovely country of New Zealand.
In my home state of Texas, we have the second largest Canyon in the USA. Palo Duro Canyon and nearby is the Canyon Museum that tells the history of the Texas panhandle with dinosaurs and oil wells.
Nearby is Caprock Canyon. The state's bison herd lives there.
There is no way I would walk that close to the edge of a cliff.
Lake Tahoe is COLD x5 even in July or August. Went to Yosemite last year. Pictures don't do it justice. And BIG. You can't even sense how massive and grand the area is. Research before going about where to stay. There are very, very limited lodgings/accommodations/services within the park ($$$) and if you stay outside of the park it is quite a drive to get into the park. The map is deceiving because of the changes in elevation and speed limits. Over crowded and hot in July-August. Try May to Mid June. I was with a gal-pal at end of June. It was in the upper 80s(F). From gate entrances it is 1.5 hrs drive to get to the valley floor where the hub of activity is. Great for camping if you can get a spot. RESERVE EARLY! YT has some great vids and tips. Luv yr channel! Don't forget to wear and use yr merch when you come! 😘
I was born and raised in Boston, then lived in San Francisco for over 10 years, then moved to San Diego for a few years. Then I moved to Denver Colorado for 3 years. Now that I’m retired, we settled here in Phoenix Arizona. I didn’t really appreciate how fortunate I was with my travels and living locations until I came across your RUclips channel. Thank you all for reminding me of how amazing this country is. ❤️❤️❤️ I can’t wait to see and here about your trip here!
San Diegan here. We'll see you this summer at the beach. All of our Zonie friends come for a visit in the summer to escape the hellscape of Phoenix.
San Diego is the best!
post-Covid we have to hopefully fix our homeless problem that’s been getting worse
@StripedJacket make no mistake, we don't have a homeless problem. We have a drug problem.
@@toemblem it’s so wild and we can’t do anything about it yet we spend so much of our taxes on programs where we have no idea where the money went
@StripedJacket I think a good first step is identifying it as a drug problem. Most of these people are choosing to live on the street and use opioids.
There is so much more..he left out the entire American South and Midwest. The Smoky Mountains, Blue Ridge Mountains, The Ozark Mountains..Colorado, beautiful lakes up north, all the beauty and history of Virginia..I could go on and on...
The US has so many lovely places. Don't limit yourself to the West Coast and NYC.
That video should be called the “Top 24 Places to Visit in the US if you like to Hike and Jump in Lakes, + NYC.” Don’t get me wrong: all those places are great. Beautiful scenery, interaction w nature, etc. But there are so many other kinds of attractions in the US other than that particular “type” of outdoor attraction. Both natural (eg Everglades) and man-made (eg Mount Rushmore, Gateway Arch, Hoover Dam, Washington Monument & Lincoln Memorial). Not to mention the food/culture of cities/regions (New Orleans, Chicago, Kansas City) and other random stuff like the Field of Dreams in Iowa, Graceland in Memphis or Churchill Downs in Louisville.
You’re right. Apparently, he focused only on places he’s been.
Stay away from tourist traps like the ones this guy mentions. Unless you want to blast through your funds real quick. A good city to visit is Washington D.C.. All the National Museums are free of charge. And plenty of history. National Parks are a definite must, though.
Mt Rushmore..... literally the most disappointing tourist trap in all the US.
I've lived almost all my life in Massachusetts (except for 4 years in NYC during graduate school), so I'm a little biased to including New England in your travel plans, but all the locations he mentioned are incredible....and are places I have to visit!
With as much as they were in the west, I'm surprised they didn't mention the Geand Canyon. So surreal and beautiful.
I know!!
Yeah, it’s as though the guy who made the original video had only been to the two coasts. I mean….WTH?!
@@WyattRyeSway Exactly!
I live on Vinalhaven island off the coast of Rockland Maine....Have been to the Pacific Northwest, Lived in Lacey Wa. just south of Seattle, Lived in Milwaukee Oregon just south of Portland.... by far the most beautiful in all of the US.... but Maine is forever home and most beautiful to me.
We take pride in our national parks, but your backyard is where they filmed LOTR and Narnia! 😂
Anyway, stay safe and have fun in the USA!! 💙🇳🇿🇺🇸
I forgot narnia was filmed there. I remember being jealous of anyone who lived where they filmed lord of the rings.
We have great places here but New Zealand rocks.
I never got to see some of these until I was a truck driver. Multnomah Falls & Devil's Tower were exceptionally memorable.
Gotta remember, tho--the US covers a LOT of real estate! The US is one of the largest countries on the planet. No quick trips from NYC to Hollywood!
I grew up in Northern California in the Monterey Bay area, Santa Cruz to be precise, so Big Sur, Lake Tahoe, Yosemite, Golden Gate Bridge, and the scenic Highway 1 drive are some of my favorite stomping grounds. It's fun to see your family wear Santa Cruz merch. That logo has expanded it's territory to all over the world now, but it was just a local symbol when I was growing up.
This list was severely unbalanced, honestly. The first third of it was all on the west coast, the next third all on the east coast, and the final third 100% in the Rocky mountains. Which, those are all valid places, but he left out two thirds of the country, entirely. No mention at all of Niagara, or the great lakes, or Cedar Point, or Chicago, or St. Louis, or Mammoth Cave, no mention of any museums or zoos, nothing about the Appalachian Trail or the Smokey Mountains, nothing about Louisiana, nothing about St. Augustine or Gettysburg, no mention of Orlando, or Atlanta, or Cinci, or Nashville, or any part of Texas, ...
Sending prayers for a safe trip to and in America. A good chunk of her has lost their minds.
the left side of her 🤭
Isn't crime up in New York City?
An then Skid Row in California is got more tents then campgrounds I saw on the news. I don't know.
I'm in a unincorporated town in God's country.
Don't have any Big City Problems so far and I like it like that.
The VAST majority of it hasn't lost its mind. Big cities; sure... The rest is perfectly welcoming and safe.
FNC: We lied to you.
FNC Viewers: No you didn't.
@@2mexpesos facts lol
I love that you will be coming to the US. Keep in mind that America is 4,466 km east to west (between New York and Las Angeles). And it is 2,500 km from north to south. America is vast! It took me 4 days to drive from San Diego, California to Indianapolis, Indiana driving 8 hours a day. Getting a snapshot of the United States in one trip would be almost impossible. You would need to spend months to visit every place in this video. You will want to come back again and again to see it all. We welcome you.
I think they should visit a few spots in Indiana
I was lucky enough to have a job here that traveled to most of these places. I can say with 100% certainty. That this is just the tip of the iceberg. There are THOUSANDS of hidden gems in America. One of my personal favorites I called Gold Mountain. In fall all the leaves glistened with golden color. And I'll never take anyone there. Or tell anyone it's location. 😊
I've been to Kauai on the Napali Coast and honestly of everywhere I've been in the US that sticks out to me the most. Mind blowing. Grand Canyon is also iconic. You truly can't go wrong though. Have fun!
I live in Oregon so I've been to most of the California and Oregon sites, been to most of Washington as well. Been to Nevada, Montana, Wyoming, Idaho, and Louisiana but actually I've traveled more out of country than in. After my trip to Louisiana, I generally stay away from the south because my tolerance for heat is NULL, well heat and humidity combo.
If you ever get to visit Oregon I can recommend taking your time going to our coast, to Crater Lake, through the Gorge and down to the painted hills in Eastern. The Painted Hills are in the desert area of Oregon by our fossil beds and the hills look like they've been painted with yellow and red. But PLEASE don't try to do this all in one day. Also remember Crater Lake USE to be a mountain/volcano only part of it fell into itself so bring a variety of clothing and shoe wear for here. I believe Shawn from Scotland went there in the year that the rain never stopped and was surprised about all the snow.
For me my favorite places in Oregon is the coast, any, though we typically go to Lincoln City because our favorite restaurant is in Depot Bay which is near by but doesn't have amazing beach access, oh and that restaurants name is called Gracie's Sea Hagg. I love our Beaches because you can't purchase our beaches so it's publicly owed and as long as you find parking and public beach access you can wander to your heart's content. My second favorite place would be the Columbia River Gorge. I did Search and Rescue which means we pulled people out of the woods among other things as well. It's gorgeous to hike, take pictures, and see the waterfalls. I use to windsurf and that is where I did it up in Hood River. If you visit during our fall going to Hood River and going through the Fruit Loop is amazing, that area grows amazing apples and other fruits.
Wherever you go I hope you have fun!
I have to say growing up in NY I came to appreciate Broadway, The Statue of Liberty, The Museum of Natural History, The Hayden Planetarium , The Museum of Modern Art, The Guggenheim, Yankee Stadium and so much more. I now live in South Florida, also known as paradise. If you can, NY should be number one on your list of destinations. The cultural aspects for the kids is unmatched.
agreed
I’ve been to all of the western states except for Hawaii and Alaska (going this summer). I live in Vegas. My favorites are Yosemite high country, the Tetons and Zion. My favorite city is Seattle. Btw thats not what all of Idaho looks like. There’s forest and lakes too. It’s beautiful up there. You could honestly spend your life traveling the US. There’s so much to see here, thats why a lot of Americans don’t have passports
I have been to a lot of those places. My FAVORITE ones are the Arizona National parks. There are many National Monuments too in AZ you may want to see. Many have ancient Native American ruins that are nothing less than spectacular.
I'm an east coast person, and I cannot recommend New England highly enough! You are missing so much of the US if you don't stop there. Compared to the rest, the states in New England are very small, Takes no time to go from the beautiful beaches to tapping maple trees to seeing any major league sports event (Boston Bruins, ice hockey, are the hottest team in the NHL), to visiting the literally countless historic sites, go whale watching, chow down on a Maine lobster roll, and always take the 'back roads'...acres of stunning tall pines and birch trees, horse farms, apple orchards, real stone walls...my favorite place on earth.
Yes, he spelled Yellowstone wrong. We have driven the Oregon/California coast and it is beautiful. The redwoods are definitely a sight to see. One of my favorite spots along the coast is Big Sur. I am disappointed that he never mentioned the Grand Canyon (the most spectacular place I have ever seen) or Glacier National Park. East coast autumns are also truly a sight to behold. I wish you great luck in your decisions for your upcoming trip.
If you are into America, as much as you all appear to be, then you have to go to Washington DC. You could spend weeks visiting the buildings, museums, and historical landmarks. Not to mention the surrounding areas of Virginia and Maryland.
Would love for you all to see the Great Smoky mountains here in Tennessee You guys would love it Yosemite is a beautiful place Utah too I'm American and I'm going to be seeing California for the first time in June I'm so excited!!!!
While in Smoky Mts., you could see Cherokee, NC.
I'm sure your trip will be amazing, just remember to be realistic when making your plans. The mistake that many from other countries make is thinking everything is close together, and it really is not. Be sure to have alternate plans and plan for another trip or more to the US. Oh, also, Colorado has Great Sand Dunes National Park too, since you thought that was cool in Idaho. Enjoy your trip!
As a native Idahoan I can tell you Idaho is one of the most geographic diverse states in the union. You can go from beautiful deserts to dense forrest in a couple hours drive. Idaho is an outdoor enthusiasts dream. Great video fam!!!
Just don't move here...we're full.
@Chris in Idaho so is Florida. Lol
This description is like every state west of the great plains.
I lived in Rexburg for a couple months, along with frequent annual visits from Utah. The dunes are an amazing place. From the Rexburg area, the Teton Mountains are visible. In my personal opinion, the national park is very overrated, because the best view of the mountains is the one in Idaho, by far.
@@chrisinidaho4569 I don't think you have to worry about that lmao.
Oh my,Sam you got Atlanta again. Lol😅.. This needs to be a running gag .. P S. I Live in Oregon,born in Astoria..(Goonies).. I have to say it is a beautiful place to live.
It’s a common misconception that the first Thanksgiving was in Massachusetts, but it was actually held in Virginia at Jamestown. Yes, he spelled Yellowstone wrong. He left out the W.
As I remind people every Thanksgiving.
If you drive 101 through Oregon. You have too make sure, you stop at 48 flavors Ice Cream shop. Just on the north end of Florence OR. They make all their Ice Cream in house. I recommend the blueberry cheesecake & raspberry cheesecake Ice Cream. On one of their hand made waffle cones. Another good stop is the cheese factory down in Tilikum. the Cheese curds are the best I have ever ate.
I’m so stoked you guys recognized Lake Tahoe, one of my favorite places on earth! I grew up about three hours away, we used to come up every summer. And in fact, I am randomly here right now! Just got into town about an hour and a half ago!! 😊♥️🎉
I'm really partial to California/Oregon for all outdoorsy type of people. You could get lost in awesomeness by a coastal drive on the Hiway#1/#101 from Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk up to Crater Lake and over into Ocean Shores WA. Following along the Oregon Trail, visit the Last Blockbuster Video, and swing over to Las Vegas and Hoover Dam to Arizona and through to the OK Corral in Tombstone. I have many favorites, but that little bit you can take a couple weeks right there.
Ever since I was little I always wanted to go to lake Tahoe. Finally went to lake Tahoe this past January and it was more than I thought it would be.
I've been told it's even more beautiful in the summer. Can't wait to go back
Hello, just found you guy a few days ago,love your channel. I live in NW Oregon which I have been told is alot like New Zealand. My Wife and I have talked to alot of your fellow Country men very nice people indeed. Look forword to more from you all. Craig & Marie
Hi fam! So excited you're able to come to the U.S! If you end up in Ohio, I recommend the Hocking Hills in Southern Ohio, especially a place called Rock House. It's a nature made rock formation in the shape of a house. Love you fam!
Yeah I agree! Also visit Cuyahoga National Park. It has a lot of cool history to it 🙂
The "North Coast" is a great place, too. It's along several states--Minnesota, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, etc.
Okay I’ve traveled a great deal in my life. I’ve driven across the country several times due to family circumstances, and now I’m trying to go to all 50 states! Honestly, I didn’t think much of the southeast US, and the northeast US is much better. There’s a lot more to see. But the western US is the best. I love the southwest, and I also love the northwest, although they’re very different!
One of the best things about the U.S. is the diversity of climates. Very Beautiful. I am going to the Grand Canyon and other amazing places over the summer, so I am very excited. I hope you guys get to enjoy the beautiful places the U.S. has to offer! Love y'all's videos! I would love to see some more try not to laughs! Much love from Panama City Florida!
The Grand Canyon and Monument Valley are on my bucket list.
Hope you enjoy the Grand Canyon. It is beautiful! Don't forget to have lots of water with you and stay hydrated! If you aren't used to the extreme dry climate you can dehydrate very quickly, and sunburn very quickly too.
@@jonok42 seriously!! My favorite place is Arches National Park and Moab. You can never plan Too Much water!! Even in the Spring those places can get HOT🔥🥵!!
@@lianabaddley8217 that's very true, but even at 80 or 85F it still will quickly suck all moisture from your body. People don't even realize they are dehydrated until it's almost too late. Especially if they come from humid areas. The desert is dangerous.
@j nokes I went kayaking and got sun burnt badly. I have learned my lesson. I definitely won’t be forgetting to put on sun screen. Besides that, i am very excited. I’m still young, so going around the country is going to be much more fun the older I get. Thanks for letting me know your information!
As usual, there are a few people in the comments saying not to visit Seattle (or NYC or SF). I live in downtown Seattle and it's not like the media likes to portray it... not as bad anyway. As with any big city, there are places to avoid and times of day to not be out and about. Just do a little homework before you visit. I used to frequently hang out downtown until midnight, but since the pandemic there aren't quite as many tourists and late night venues open, so I'm back home by about 9 most nights. If you come here, ride the ferry, go up in the Space Needle, see the Chihuly glassworks, go to Pike Market, take in a baseball game, hang out on South Lake Union, take the Underground Tour. Enjoy your US visit!
We are so excited to have you all here!!! The USA cannot wait to welcome you!!!
Hi New Zealand family! Hope you had a Happy Easter! I am so happy that your family is going to the US. Have an amazing time! I have been to the Oregon coast which is absolutely beautiful! Oregon is a gorgeous state! My cousins live there. That is probably my favorite from the list! I have also been to Seattle which was a lot of fun! I have done the Redwood Muir forest near San Francisco. Boston is such a fun city with a lot of history! I am so excited to see which places you and your family end up visiting on your trip! 😊
Another wonderful National Park to see is the Pictured Rock National Lakeshore along Lake Superior in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. We also have right by it Kitch-iti-kipi (Big Springs), plus Mackinac Island which is a whole different experience. We get visitors from all over the world that come and visit.
The Pictured Rocks cruise boat from Munising is a great trip
Yes, Nadine he did spell Yellowstone wrong. There are also SOOOOOO many places other than Seattle to go. Mt Rainier, Mt St Helens, Hurricane Ridge, La Push, Grand Coulee, Dry Falls, and so many more. I hope you decide on some amazing places since the US is so much larger than New Zealand. All my best, enjoy when you come to the US for the first time.
While visiting northern California, be sure to book a tour of Rancho Obi Wan (appointment required) in Petaluma. It's home of the largest Star Wars collections in the world!
So, I wish this video had included the Badlands in South Dakota. It is my favorite place. I can’t wait to go back. While there you could visit Mount Rushmore and the Black Hills. South Dakota is worth looking into. Then you could come into Iowa where there are a lot of small towns who would love to be your host.
May God-bless you and your family on this wonderful Easter day With lots of love from me and my wife in California
That lighthouse during the Oregon portion is Heceta Head Lighthouse in Florence, Oregon. I live about fifteen minutes away in Mapelton in the rainforest.
We lived in Los Angeles, when I was in high school, and we would make two trips to Yosemite each year; one in the spring - when the snows were melting and feeding the falls and Merced river. And once each fall to see the trees turn.
We would stay at a small hotel just outside the park and drive in each morning, to spend the day. We rented bikes and rode through the valley. Our hotel was right on the Merced river and that's what you heard going to sleep.🥰👍💯😁
I'm kinda sad the video didn't mention Michigan. I feel like sometimes it gets overlooked despite it looking like a literal mitten or hand✋. In Michigan, there is Sleepy Bear Dunes. My family has gone to Frankfort to visit Lake Michigan and Sleepy Bear Dunes. It's incredible. There is also of course the Great Lakes to visit. You can remember them with HOMES; Huron, Ontario, Michigan, Erie, Superior. There is also the Mackinac Bridge and the Henry Ford museum, along with the Detroit Zoo. They are all great places to visit. Okay, just had to throw it out there.
i did alot of that trip during covid. i bought a travel trailer and took my mom and her boyfriend. we live in NY and took the northern route to S. Dakota, and Wyoming. i could spend months there its just so beautiful. then headed to Idaho through utah into Nevada(lake tahoe) California was on fire and smoke was heading our way so we didnt stay to long. after Nevada we started heading back east through Arizona(grand canyon) New Mexico and so on. the U.S. really is beautiful but i will say that every time i leave, no matter where i go, coming back to NY and seeing that skyline is always my favorite. when you guys come here i really do recommend just renting a RV. you will do and see so much more. when you stay in hotels you waste so much time doing nothing. in a RV you will see so much more just on your down time driving and you can choose to stay or leave a place.thats what we did. we didnt really make any definite destinations. we had the big ones we wanted to see but in between we just found BLM which is public land in America managed by the Bureau of Land Management that you can camp at for free. we found this place totally of the grid one night. when we woke up we where totally surounded by bison. just increadible
Hi, Thanks for sharing. I live about an hour West of Boston, Ma. There is a lot of history in the area. If you would like any further information(like where to possibly see a moose) just ask. :)
I live in New York State and of course everyone knows and loves New York City. There’s just so much to it however, New York State also is home to a number of incredible national parks. If you ever come to New York state, I hope you look into the parks here as well❤
No, everyone doesn't love NYC. I have no desire to ever go there. Either do most of the people I know.
Omg you need to go to hocking hills, Ohio. It’s gorgeous it’s in the country side of Ohio and you will see many cows and horses. Their are many cabins to rent in the awsome woods their. The woods is like split half pine and half oak and ect. The caves often have spear heads and waterfalls. We own a cabin down their and it is one of my fav places to camp not hunt tho. If you are to hunt I recommend going to Belmont county Ohio it’s a great place to deer, turkey and coyote hunt.
