About Me

I Am Your Travel Inspiration

Hello! Welcome to my travel blog: Trips Inspire You – Solo Female Road Trips & National Park Guides.

I’m LoAnn – Female Solo Travel Blogger and Founder of Trips Inspire You.

I’m happy you’re here and ready for an adventure: driving across States, exploring National Parks, enjoying Camping and more!

I started my first solo road trip in October 2023. When I started this blog, I had completed 16 solo road trips across the United States. My longest trip so far was 5,000 miles in 18 days, and honestly, it changed how I see myself and what I’m capable of.

Within two years, I visited 17 National Parks in the USA and an additional 6 in Canada, accumulating over 20,000 miles.

I learned a lot from those trips, which helped me become a stronger, happier woman.

I would love to inspire you, women, to embark on a solo road trip or continue your journey across countries that makes you amazing! I am here to help you plan a road trip solo through the USA and Canada with safety tips, travel guide, and real stories to inspire you.

My journey has only just begun. There are still countless roads to drive, mountains to see, and stories to share. As I continue exploring, I hope my path inspires you to start yours.

I can do it, and you can too!

Who am I beyond the road trips?

I grew up in Vietnam, a country with beautiful landscapes, rich traditions, and delicious food. I’ll always remember where I came from, but moving to the United States gave me a chance to be strong and successful. I love America! I found opportunities I never imagined: I built a new career, became a stronger version of myself, and explored some of the most beautiful places in this country.

Sometimes I still feel small in this big world. Growing up in a small city in Vietnam, I never pictured myself hiking Utah’s red rocks, standing under California’s giant sequoias, or crossing borders on solo trips to Canada. But here I am. I made it happen, and it’s proof that when you stay open and keep going, the world opens up, too.

And here’s what I believe with all my heart: The world is waiting for you, too.

My Goal

Traveling alone wasn’t always easy, but that’s exactly what makes it so rewarding. Each mile taught me something new about courage, patience, and self-trust. I want to share my stories and inspire you to dream bigger, reminding you that you can do amazing things, too. These experiences are within reach; all you need is the right mindset, a little encouragement, and self-belief. If I can do it, so can you. I’m here to help and inspire you to achieve amazing things in your life.

My blog will:

Train your mindset, skills, and confidence.
Share inspiring stories to motivate you to embark on trips.
Provide “behind the scenes” road trip stories.
Offer a realistic perspective, not misleading you into believing everything will be perfect.
Serve as your travel guide to famous national parks in the USA and Canada.
Offer travel tips for car camping and road trips in the USA and Canada.
Inspire you to explore the world, be fearless, and discover your own path.
Empower you to be a strong and amazing woman you are proud of.

My Inspiration to You

When reading my blog, I believe you love to travel, but the doubt and hesitation of a solo road trip have stopped you. I understand; I used to be in that position. Don’t worry! You are not alone; many women out there share the same doubts and worries. I encourage you to start small with a day trip, and gradually increase to 2-3 days trip. And I am here to help you!

I believe some of you reading my blog have already completed several road trips and would love to hear about other women who share the same passion. I encourage you to share more stories and inspire other women to do the same. I would love to hear your stories!

We all want to achieve great things and be happy in life. I am embarking on this mission and would appreciate your support in empowering women to be stronger and happier, regardless of age.

Would you be proud to tell other women you completed a solo road trip of 5,000 or 10,000 miles? I am confident you would. However, reaching that point requires significant preparation, experience, and a strong mindset. I will guide you step-by-step, enabling you to eventually undertake such journeys independently and teach other women what you have learned from me.

I Appreciate Your Support

Thank you so much for being here. Every time you read, share, or leave a comment on my blog, it reminds me why I started this journey: to inspire more women to take the road on their own way, to be strong and happier. Your support means a lot and keeps me writing, exploring, and sharing real stories from the road.

If you’ve found comfort, courage, or ideas here, I’d love for you to come back often, stay connected, and support me on PATREON. Or simply, BUY ME A COFFEE while you enjoy the contents on my website.

Your support helps me create more interesting content, travel guides, and stories that empower solo female travelers, and maintain my ad-free website for a quality experience.

This blog exists and will improve because of women like you: curious, brave, and ready to explore. I’m grateful you’re part of this journey with me.
