Road tripping is one of my favorite things to do! I love to explore new places and take my time doing it. I think, for me though, my favorite road trips have to be the road trips that have all those southern comfort vibes. These road trip destinations are my top 5 southern road trips!

Staying in Scotland was one of the best experiences of our lives! I could honestly move back and live forever and never think about the US again. It’s forever green and everyone is so unbelieveably nice that it could almost make you sick. The architecture and rich history could keep you busy for years and never see the same things twice.

There is so much to do and see in Scotland! With so many towns to explore with all its rich history, it is hard to narrow down the things you must see/do! When Chelsey and I started planning this trip, we had a lot of trouble figuring out where we wanted to go and how long we should stay in each place. We really wish we could have stayed a month and explored everything the U.K. has to offer but that wasn’t realistic (at least not for the time of year we were going, summer may be a totally different story though). We recommend you stay centrally in Scotland (Glasgow…
