When you plan a road trip it is normally with a particular purpose in mind -- to visit the ghost town you’ve been reading for the past six months or hit the ski resort slopes you’ve been dreaming about since last winter.
However, have you ever thought about planning a trip simply for the sake of following your stomach? If not, then both you and your stomach are missing out on a world of tastes.
