This summer has been a crazy whirlwind of amazing travel, meeting all kinds of new people, and exploring AMMMMMAZING cities. I’m in the process of working on a combination coffee table book, cookbook, and road trip guide book that outlines the trip that I did this summer, starting here in Columbus heading south to Asheville, out to the South Carolina Coast, southwest to Florida, onto New Orleans, then back up through the Mississippi Delta to Memphis, through Louisville, then home again.
In 13 days.
Because I’m apparently crazy like that.
It was amazing.
My friend Alicia flew out from Oregon and went with me, and we absolutely had a ball. The only night of the trip that we had existing accommodation reservations for was the first night, in Asheville NC. Other than that, I was relying on hotels.com to get us through, using my phone to find us a room in whichever city we were staying in that night.
[Pro tip:: if you wait until after 3 pm to book your room, you’ll save yourself some money.]
The whole story of that trip will be up on Cook.Eat.Explore, so make sure to follow along over there too, as this side is going to be largely just the photos.
With that being said, here’s a sneak peek of the photography from the road trip.































As a foodie I’m a huge fan of these food ‘scenes’. Road trip photography is soooooo legit!
Great post and great images! Road trips are so much fun when you go with good friends 🙂
