I grew up with parents who always went off the beaten path when taking day trips and on vacations. Growing up this irritated me because I wanted to see all the tourist attractions so I would have some exciting story to tell my friends. I grew out of that phase and, as an adult, I try to avoid high traffic tourist areas. I do this because I don't feel that the true beauty of any area is found in some "made up" area to attract tourists. My mission to stay away from tourist areas has guided me to some really amazing places. When on trips I also eat at local places. The best people to ask where to eat locally are the people that live there. This is an amazing post! I grew up with parents who always went off the beaten path when taking day trips and on vacations.
