I have traveled to 30 out of the 50 states in the United States of America. I finally had my first international trip in 2021 at the age of 40. I actually had to get a passport to where I could travel to Costa Rica. My partner and family had already traveled down, which meant that I was flying down solo. I was in Costa Rica for 2 weeks and absolutely fell in love with the culture, food, and the amazing views. As a photographer, I took a LOT of pictures and videos. Please join me on this amazing journey that led me to consider relocating to Costa Rica.

Most of our cross-country road trips have been at Hiltons because we can count on their excellent accommodations, WI-FI capabilities, and usually breakfast is part of the room price. Plus we earn Hilton Honors points which we can then use on big trips, like our trip last year to the UK. With this list I am highlighting exceptional non-Hilton hotels as well as unique Hiltons. Accommodations and transportation can make or break your trip. I highly recommend these.
