Around the Corner

Vibrancy is a keen part of any road tripping experience. Just as one doesn't necessarily appreciate grey cloudy days, the sunny 'blue blue' sky mornings accent our energy level when we just want to get out there. Folks journeying through Valparaiso, Chile will want to slow down and seek out these bold architectural colours in the area -- regardless of the weather.

Looking Beyond

There's almost always an element of spirituality when road tripping. Choose your path and take whatever road you want. If ever the opportunity arrives while passing through the city of Amritsar in India, take a pause for contemplation and reflection at the Golden Temple -- Harmandir Sahib or Darbar Sahib.

A waterfall in the backyard

On the chance that one might be strolling through the municipality of Hemsedal (Buskerud), Norway ... take a side trip to see these bungalows and resorts with waterfalls right in their backyard in addition to the stunning views. Sky diving is optional.

Inclination

Road trippers usually carry some underlying fanaticism around peculiar architecture and odd buildings. If you ever find yourself in Huainan City located in Southeast China ... perhaps you may want to walk up those stairs in the glass violin (or cello).
