Why Budget Doesn't Mean Basic
USA on a Budget from Kolkata
The United States is not a country so much as a continent with a common passport — 50 states spanning Arctic tundra, subtropical swamps, desert canyons, Pacific coastlines and the world's most iconic city skylines. New York City alone is a lifetime's destination; the National Parks system protects some of the planet's most extraordinary landscapes; Nashville, New Orleans and Austin represent entirely distinct musical civilisations. The USA rewards travellers who go deep into one region rather than trying to cover it all — though the road trip, coast to coast on Route 66, is one of the world's great journeys regardless.
