Camping Travel Diary!

I just got back from a super fun camping trip in an RV across Western Kansas! We went to the Monument Rocks National Landmark, Little Jerusalem Badlands State Park, Lake Scott State Park, and Milford State Park. I'm here to tell you all about it!

On our first day we stopped by the Monument Rocks! They were so cool to see especially since that's not really something you see in Kansas. Most of the landscape is flat and these rocks were very unique! There used to be an ocean where the United States is now, so these chalk formations are rich in fossils which is also super fun to see! If you're ever on a trip out west I highly recommend stopping here!

Our camp site at Lake Scott State Park was beautiful! The sunrise was gorgeous over the lake. We also went fishing there which was super fun!

On our second day we went to the Little Jerusalem Badlands! They were absolutely incredible. I've been to the real badlands in South Dakota and these obviously weren't as crazy, but they were definitely just as cool. To see something so different in the Kansas landscape is so weird and so fascinating! The trails we walked on, although long, did give a really nice view from all sorts of different perspectives. You can see in the pictures below!

We also stopped by this cute little sunflower field we found! Isn't it gorgeous?

I highly recommend all of these places for a mini trip or even a longer one! It was super fun to relax and social distance camping!

My Top 5 Virtual Vacations!

Hello friends! Welcome back to Taylor Travels. It’s good to have you back. If you are new here, make sure to sign up for our mailing list so you can always be notified when a new post comes out! Since the Corona Virus, travel has greatly decreased around the world. I’m certainly not going anywhere across the world anytime soon! Whether or not you are planning any big trips soon, here are my favorite virtual tours. They are super fun and totally free for you to visit! The first place I have for you to visit is the Eiffel Tower! This was truly one of the most beautiful places I went in France. It is a bit of a hike to/from the top if you choose to climb it, but luckily you don’t have to climb any stairs with this quick little YouTube video! Eiffel Tour Virtual Tour Another one of my favorite places in France was The Louvre Museum. It was absolutely incredible. Usually museums aren’t my thing, but this one was amazing! I highly recommend this virtual tour! The Louvre Virtual Tour I loved

What's In My Carry On?

Hello friends! Welcome back to Taylor Travels. It’s good to have you back. If you are new here, make sure to sign up for our mailing list so you can always be notified when a new post comes out! It has been a minute since my last post...sorry about that. I'm back with a new article today and it's a good one! If you need some carry on ideas, keep on reading! Backpack I love mini backpacks when I'm going on a quick flight, but I choose large backpacks when it's longer. Most of the things I keep in them are still the same though. TJ Maxx and Target have great large and mini backpacks with many styles and colors to choose from! Plus, they're super affordable if you're not looking to spend much.  Mini Bag of Essentials The first thing I put in my backpack is a small bag of small essentials, so they're all in one place. I include mini perfume, hand sanitizer, hair ties, feminine products, and if it's a long flight, I carry cleansing wipes. They are perfect to
