Sometimes you just need a change of scenery. Especially in 2020 with work, school, meals, and virtual social events largely taking place from home, spending a weekend away from your neighborhood even for a few days can feel more invigorating and restorative than ever before.
Traveling during the pandemic is still risky for yourself and for others, but traveling safely is not impossible. While it’s important to keep state travel restrictions and the safety of locals top of mind, there are also plenty of key items to bring along that can help you get prepared and stay as self-sufficient as possible whether camping, road-tripping, or a stay in a remote Airbnb during a weekend away.
