The ocean. The sand. The dunes. The trees.
In the words of Paul Theroux, one of America’s most celebrated travel writers:
“Travel is mostly about dreams—dreaming of landscapes or cities, imagining yourself in them, murmuring the bewitching place names, and then finding a way to make the dream come true.
The mixed blessing of America is that anyone with a car can go anywhere. The visible expression of our freedom is that we are a country without roadblocks. And a driver's license is our identity.
It is in our nature as Americans to want to drive everywhere, even into the wilderness.”
