Conditions of the expiration date of J1 visa allowed me to stay in US extra 30 days but I was planning to take the plane back to Russia on 15th of September because my closest people had their birthdays this month, my girlfriend was getting married and my study had already got started. During my staying in US I was texting with a guy from my hometown that left it for living in LA. He knew that originally the only dream I had about US was San Francisco so he bought tickets for both of us on Grayhound from SF to LA. Despite all this important events I had at home I considered to delay my departure to follow my dream. Maine is the most northern state on the west coast on the border with Canada so it’s pretty far from the east coast of California, where I had to be to take this bus. Anyway we found apartments in San Francisco on airbnb, all green with two dogs, garden and hot tab on the roof. I’ve never seen him before so I had some flowers in my hair that we can recognize each other. As I figured out then he had never though about this song so he decided that I am crazy about flowers. We spent three days walking up and down hills of San Francisco, talking about everything in the way that we knew each other for long. Еще до того, как мы встретились, в одной из наших бесед я сказала, что хотела бы посмотреть на Grand Canyon. Я не имела ни малейшего представления что это, и ему пришлось объяснить, что это не туристическое место, где можно просто сделать фото на память, а часть бескрайних национальных парков с удивительной необъятной красотой нетронутой природы. У меня был печальный опыт блужданий по горам хребта Сихотэ-Алинь, которым я поделилась, и он был первым человеком, который так ответственно подошел к походу со мной в горы. По дороге в Юту он сказал, что хочет показать мне одно место, где мы могли бы поужинать. Я была в летнем платье и сандалиях, настроенная на природу и поход, а место, которое он хотел показать был Лас Вегас. Я понимаю, как он может покорять людей, крадя их время в казино и напускной роскоши отелей, но декорации, люминесценция, манекены и страсти людей предстали предо мной во всей своей наготе, к чему я не совсем была готова. Я так же готова согласиться, что каждый волен проводить время так, как ему нравится, но лучшее, что я чувствовала там, радость за то, что могу выбирать лес и горы. Я описала нашу поездку в письме Алекс, девушке, которая владела рестораном, где я работала: Hi Alex! I spent couple days hiking in National Parks. I didn't write you earlier because I turned off all electronic devices to be free from technologies and closer to nature. We went there through Utha, first national park that we've visited was Bryce, trails ran through mountains, called hoodoos, it's odd-shapes pillars of rock, they look extraordinary because of nature forces and erosion, and it could be imagined, that mountain rage forms fantasy castles, in the splendid and magnificence of this canyon you could feel the reminiscent of the passage of time. Its massive sandstone cliffs of cream, pink and red soared to the sky. They were sun burnt and looked like deserts or Mars. On our way to the next national park we chose the wrong serpentine road, nature was so different, autumn has already came there so all trees were in fire. Second place that we've been was Zyon National Park, But the filling of this park was full of life because of the emerald mountain creek flowing down the slopes to the Virgin river. It waters soil and mountain feet are very green. Poplars with silver leaves are so tall there. In our trip we reached the place called Angels Landing.

I'm already a traveler with two years of experience, and I've tried different ways to spend my well-deserved vacation. I'll write briefly, clearly, and usefully!) How can you come to the States and not travel around it?!) In the first year (2013), I bought a 7-day tour. There were three of us. Tour companies have many promotions where the more people buy, the cheaper it gets. Very profitable! If you don't have a driver's license and are afraid of taking buses, this is the ideal option for you! I didn't know how to drive, and I wanted to see more places in a short time. (We also spent 2 nights in New York). Now a smile involuntarily appears on my face. It was a wonderful summer. I think many people only remember the good events and feelings. I don't regret my summer vacation spent abroad in America! The tour included bus transport, a guide, and hotel nights. The 7 days included cities like: New York, Pennsylvania, Washington D.C., Boston, and Niagara Falls. We visited many museums, restaurants, and famous places. I can't list everything anymore, but it's in my memory))) I'll post better photos later so you'll believe me more)) I found it - info@taketours.com - 6-Day New East Coast Deluxe Tour (2 Nights in D.C) from New York: Qty 3, it cost us E-Ticket Details Total amount charged: $960, so it comes out to $320 each, I can post more details if you want)) In 2014, we decided to experience freedom on our own. A tour is good, but we started early in the morning and were on our feet until late at night. So we planned our trip months in advance. We also had driver's licenses!) I got mine before flying out, and because of that, I postponed my flight for a week))) I wanted to feel the American breeze from the car. To recreate scenes from movies and drive through the most famous parts of America, spend days in each town, and feel the energy of every city. On the tour, sometimes we only spent a couple of hours in a certain place, we were always late and got scolded))) by the end of the tour we were even tired))) those are the downsides. Still, it's necessary to plan everything in advance, it's a very interesting process! Also, I don't advise gathering very large groups of people. Better 3-4 people. In large companies, everyone has their own wishes, it's hard to combine them. But if you are close-knit, it's cool!))) Don't forget to buy a high-quality camera, we didn't want to take photos back then, now we've looked through all the photos at home until they're worn out) There are various ways to have a good rest. Fortunately, I met unusual, interesting people during my travels. Everyone chose their own way based on financial and physical possibilities. Many students rented cars, bought a "bus pass". A "bus pass" is issued by bus companies for a certain period, e.g., for a month. Very convenient, because the driver gets tired when driving, and this way they slept on buses, specifically taking night ones and even saved money that way. So study and choose what you would like to travel by for starters (car, bus, train, ride-share). The better you plan, the more you will enjoy America in a relaxed way later. Ask in DM, it's very nice to hear that you read my 4 pages and are grateful.))) Have a great summer, see you there!) I promise to finish this topic, it's just that I want to write a lot, but I can't find the time lately. After all, I will be traveling this summer too, and I already have good thoughts on how to properly spend the summer and enjoy it correctly, it will be nice to share and find like-minded people. Write to me in DM on VKontakte if anything, I'll be waiting.))) https://e.mail.ru/compose?To=info@taketours.com
