San Francisco Bound

I’m heading to the airport shortly to catch a flight to San Francisco where I’ll spend the rest of the week.


I haven’t been to San Francisco, which I used to visit regularly, in about 10 years. The first visit was at the age of 16. I biked with American Youth Hostels from Portland, Oregon to San Francisco camping and staying in hostels in the three weeks it took. A love affair with the Pacific Coast Highway began.

The following year I biked with AYH from San Francisco to San Diego. On average we biked 30-40 miles a day. One day I’d like to travel from Vancouver to San Diego, although in a car, stopping at whim along the way.

What road trips are you longing to take?

Kristina,

Thank you. Hope your road trip dreams become reality. I would love to take a year and go overland from Cairo to Cape Town.

Have a great trip, Wendy. Looking foward to seeing the shots, for sure. I loved what I saw of the California coast from San Francisco to Carmel in 2007, and would like to return to explore more, as well as the Oregon coast, which I've seen in a documentary.
