My New Favorite Virginia Travel Resource.

My New Favorite Virginia Travel Resource.

If there is one thing 2020 has done travel-wise, I think it has made all of us appreciate the states we live in and the beauty around us even more. For myself and I’m guessing most of you reading, that’s the state of Virginia! With big travel plans being cancelled or indefinitely postponed due to the pandemic, I’ve been thankful to instead spend more time this year enjoying places around Charlottesville, and exploring some other new-to-me Virginia cities and towns.

I recently found a great local travel resource that I wanted to share with you! Virginia Tourism has a new website series out called WanderLOVE, which celebrates all the destinations there are to love in the state- because Virginia is For Lovers! They have tons of road trip and city itinerary posts as apart of the WanderLOVE series- there’s even one for Charlottesville! Reading these posts has put a lot of spots on my agenda to visit for day trips or weekends in the last months of the year.

Here’s the link to check out WanderLOVE from Virginia Tourism!
