I have gone to South Beach and the Everglades in 2021, South Harbor and Acadia in 2022 and last year I went all over OR. I’m excited to announce that my 4th Solo Vacation will take place in the south. Originally, I wanted to fly to Charleston and drive to Congaree National Park after kayaking around Kiawah Beach, but I couldn’t believe the prices of flights and rooms as well. The amended plan is to fly to Knoxville and have a rental car.
Solo vacations have been really good for me. I think that they’ll continue to be this way for me too. I was really excited last night working through my accommodations. Seeing Mammoth Caves and the Great Smoky Mountains will be wonderful. I have a hike planned in Knoxville too. There is a micropolitan town that I’m staying in for a night too and there are parks and waterfalls. The goal is to spend time in three states over the course of the week. I’m such a lucky person.

Mammoth is amazing as is the smokies.
Thank you! That is great news.
I love Charleston! Great food destination and great history. Kiawah is amazing. One of my favorite beaches ever. We sold a lot there a couple of years ago as we decided to retire in North Carolina instead. My husband lived in Kiawah about 20 years ago and he just loves the place!! But unfortunately it just became too expensive!!
Tenessee sounds amazing! It will be great for a solo trip!
I do need to get there, but the flights were over twice of what they were to TN. I conducted a short, cursory search of rooms too and couldn’t believe the prices.
I will be in NC for part of this trip too. I’ll do a proper post afterward.
I really appreciate your reading this entry. Your blog is phenomenal.
Thank you!
