Oh, traveling to the great unknown! Something I'm pretty sure most of us would love to do.

So what are our top choices for this year? Especially since we are all college students and we are all struggling to make ends meet with the part-time jobs and the hopeful Christmas cards filled with cash to get us by. Most people like to fly and stay in a hotel. I prefer to take a bus and view the country side and stay in a hostel where you can meet many other exciting individuals even more so because it's the cheapest. Besides, NYC can become a bore sometimes and us New Yorkers need to venture elsewhere.

With a little bit of research, I found the top 10 places to visit in the U.S according to the U.S. News & World Report's Best Rankings for 2017.

1. Yellowstone

Who doesn't want to take a trip to one of America's most beloved national parks. Yellowstone National Park's attractions speaks for themselves. All of it's wildlife and the wondrous expanse of forest with hidden treasures of waterfalls and creeks. Not only to mention one of the most famous scenic sites, Jackson Hole. I almost forgot to mention, you could also go on amazing white water rafting expeditions on the snake river with family and friends.

Another national attraction that you just can't miss, Yosemite. I've always wanted to climb Glacier Point to view the beautiful sunrise in the early morning. Or to visit Yosemite Valley and capture its picturesque beauty. Or even to hike the Mist Trail and take a gander at the lovely waterfalls.
