Some days I love just taking the car, and driving away. Whether I’m stressed or upset, or just need a good escape from reality, I take a mini road trip. I usually just drive around for an hour or two, but it I always find myself feeling a little bit more relaxed when I return. Don't get me wrong, I do enjoy the company of others jamming along with me in the car, but sometimes I just need to go off on my own. It can seem a little boring or lonely at first, but I've found that sometimes it's just what you need. One day I would like to travel to someplace new and explore it all on my own. Traveling to a different town, or a different state is something that has been on my bucket list for a long time. I feel like many people can relate to this, and here are some reasons why it can do you some good.

Another thing that's great about solo road trips are you are in total control. You're the one determining how long the trip is, or how many stops you take. And you get to chose your own music! How terrible is it being on a road trip and the person in charge of music has very different interests than you? Now you get to control what you listen to; so be the best DJ you can be! Nobody is going to be there to judge you for listening to One Direction on repeat.

Traveling alone gives you the chance to think for yourself and gives you a chance to change your perspective on life. Going to a new place gives you the chance to experience a new sense of freedom you didn't know you wanted.

Taking a trip alone gives you a lot of time to think.The motions of driving a vehicle and maintaining focus on the road is a good way to focus on the present.All your worries and problems slowly drift away as you start putting miles behind you.

Spending time in the car alone can be a fun and enlightening journey. Sometimes it’s fun to plan where you’re going, but the real enjoyment is to just drive and see where it takes you. So, set a playlist, bring snacks and some water and go for it!
