USA Trip: Pennsylvania


We are back home. We drove through Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and D.C. we came with 15 suitcases full of treasures and Incase you wonder what kind of car you need to haul such an amount of items, you can see me in the Wagoneer l was driving these past 4 weeks. 


My own car needed the help of an additional taxi to get everything from the airport back home 😂😂 



We were a bit anxious about the political situation where we were going however everything was fine, for us. 


The government shutdown actually happened right after we left and I'm sure more crazy stuff is going to happen these coming months. 



We did enjoy our stay and hope to go back but hopefully when things are better. 










l loved driving through Pennsylvania and we saw lots of Amish people, l looked it up and there are almost half a million of them, l had no idea there were so many! l sometimes envy their simple way of life, especially in these crazy times!





l still have lots of treasure to photograph and list and am very inspired to create new things!

USA Trip: Cleveland


We were in Cleveland, Ohio for a few days. A very widely spread place where everything is at least half an hour drive.

We had fantastic weather and visited this beautiful Lake View Cemetery which was more like a park than a cemetery.










We also had a few glances at Lake Erie, l wanted to dive, but, unfortunately, the season ends September 1st.

USA Trip: Berkeley Springs and surroundings


We have already visited several states these past 10 days. These photos are mostly from around Berkeley Springs, West Virginia but also some from around Bedford, Pennsylvania.


The first few images are from an old gas station. Two very friendly guys were restoring it, the inside had beautiful old furniture, fridges and oilcans. The car was amazing.






A postoffice that operated from 1833 to 1953.




Lots of Nature!







We came across an abandoned 1950s diner with still cups and plates on the tables like a time capsule.









Saw lots of beautiful old barns, abandoned houses, deer, hummingbirds and other magical things.



We are happy that we decided to visit these not so touristy places, to see the real America. People are very friendly, and it is very green and peaceful, everything is more peaceful and chill.

We still have many plans and places to go!
