For 25 days, we traveled through 4 states - California, Nevada, Utah, and Arizona. We visited 8 national parks. I must admit, the United States was never at the top of my travel list, but it completely enchanted me. The nature, people, atmosphere, food - everything was amazing. The route: Los Angeles – Big Sur – San Francisco – Yosemite National Park – Sequoia National Park – Death Valley – Las Vegas – Fire Valley – Zion National Park – Bryce Canyon National Park – Canyonlands National Park – Arches National Park – Monument Valley – Horse Shoe Bend – Grand Canyon National Park – Route 66 – Los Angeles. We traveled a total of about 6000 km. We slept in camping sites, which I think is the coolest way to travel in this part of the States. Camping here is very popular and affordable. An admission ticket is required to enter national parks. The most cost-effective option is definitely to purchase an Annual Pass. It's a card that allows you to enter all national parks in the USA for one year. We usually prepared our own breakfasts and dinners. A few times, we ate out. The portions were huge and every dish was delicious.

I live in the San Francisco Bay Area and it is relatively safe here. I have never experienced anything out of the ordinary and generally people keep to themselves. I can’t speak of the rest of the United States, but in every place I lived in, I felt extremely safe
