A solo motorcycle adventure along the east coast of the USA: 13 States, one motorcycle, one woman, one adventure – the best routes and best places to visit on an east coast road trip.
Imagine there are thousands of kilometers ahead of you. Imagine, that there a countless different routes. Which ones will you choose? Is your trip about the journey – or is it about the destination?
This summer, I went on an unforgettable solo roadtrip. I went where the Atlantic Ocean meats the mainland , where beaches meet mountains and rolling hills, where historical places meet the road less traveled. I explored the whole east coast of the USA.
