I love a good theme! Have you figured out the theme with my Charleston posts yet? Every activity we did there (other than eating out) was FREE! The Charleston Tea Plantation was a double win. Not only was America’s only Tea Plantation free to visit, but it also delighted mine and my mom’s love for tea with unlimited free samples of tea, plus a tour of the tea factory. What a perfect finale for sightseeing in Charleston’s Lowcountry! {...} • • • #charlestonsc #explorecharleston #letsgoeverywhere #nomadlife #nomadiclife #rvtravel #rvers #rving #rvnomads #roadlife #lifeontheroad #roadtrip #roadtripUSA #USAroadtrip #USAtravel #exploreeverywhere #rvtrip #rvlife #wanderlusting #wanderlustvibes #stayandwander #goexplore #roadtrippers #discoveramerica #hittheroad #explorethestates #getoutandgo #findyourfreedom #findyouraway #nextdestinationunknown via @preview.app

“We love you long swine”, Swig & Swine! We’ve traveled through each of the Lower 48 States and tried a slew of BBQ joints, including ones in Texas, Kansas City, St. Louis, and countless other places around the country. Our all-time favorite though that has us longing to return is Swig & Swine in Charleston, SC! Their white horseradish-based sauce blew our minds and gave us a whole new appreciation for BBQ (especially the meats)! What’s the best BBQ you’ve ever had? {...} • • • #bestbbq #bbqlovers #charlestonsc #explorecharleston #letsgoeverywhere #nomadlife #nomadiclife #rvers #rving #rvnomads #roadlife #lifeontheroad #roadtrip #roadtripUSA #USAroadtrip #USAtravel #exploreeverywhere #rvlife #wanderlusting #wanderlustvibes #stayandwander #goexplore #roadtrippers #discoveramerica #hittheroad #explorethestates #getoutandgo #findyourfreedom #findyouraway #nextdestinationunknown

IMO, the best part about the South are all the enchanting Southern live oak trees covered in eery Spanish Moss. I may have mentioned them once or twice. Okay, okay... I’m obsessed with them and have talked about them A LOT. I seriously can’t get over them! So naturally, we had to see the massive Angel Oak Tree, a symbol of Charleston, nearby at Johns Island, SC. ⠀⠀ The impressive tree with never-ending branches you have to step over (the longest one stretches 187 feet in length!) is thought to be one of the oldest living things in the country, and is truly a sight to behold! Measuring over 66 feet tall and 28 feet around, its canopy covers more than 17,000 square feet! The best part… it’s FREE to visit and marvel at this magnificent tree in person! Definitely a must-see if you’re ever in the Charleston, SC area! Swipe 👈🏻 for a glimpse. {...} • • • #explorecharleston #charlestonsc #angeloak #letsgoeverywhere #nomadlife #nomadiclife #rving #rvnomads #roadlife #lifeontheroad #roadtrip #ontheroadagain #roadtripUSA #USAroadtrip #USAtravel #exploreeverywhere #rvlife #wanderlusting #wanderlustvibes #stayandwander #goexplore #everydayadventures #roadtrippers #discoveramerica #hittheroad #explorethestates #getoutandgo #findyourfreedom #findyouraway #nextdestinationunknown via @preview.app

We were on a budget for our trip to Savannah and Charleston with my mom and step-dad, so I searched for free things to do in each area. Low and behold, down the street from where we were staying at the KOA in Mt. Pleasant, SC is a free point of interest - Charles Pinckney National Historic Site! ⠀⠀ Charles Pinckney was an author and signer of the United States Constitution. The 28-acre historic site features the remains of Snee Farm, his rice and indigo plantation, along with his 1828 Lowcountry coastal cottage that now serves as a museum and visitor center. There’s also a ½ mile walking trail through gardens featuring exhibits and impressive live oak trees. ⠀⠀ I never used to care much for history, that is, until we started RVing and visiting so many amazing historic places throughout the country. RVing and traveling has given me a newfound appreciation for history, and if it’s free, it doesn’t get much better than that! {...} • • • #explorecharleston #charlestonsc #explorethesouth #southernliving #KOACamping #letsgoeverywhere #nomadlife #nomadiclife #rving #rvlife #roadlife #lifeontheroad #roadtrip #ontheroad #ontheroadagain #roadtripUSA #USAroadtrip #USAtravel #exploreeverywhere #wanderlusting #wanderlustvibes #stayandwander #everydayadventures #roadtrippers #discoveramerica #hittheroad #explorethestates #findyourfreedom #findyouraway #nextdestinationunknown

Guess what our favorite thing about the South is… the TREES! I’ve only mentioned a few times (ahem) how much I love the live oak trees in the South with their sprawling branches eerily dripping with Spanish moss. They’re both beautiful and haunting, adding to the historic charm of the Southern cities. Have you visited the South? What’s been your favorite thing about it? How many people vote for “the food”? Curious to know what other things you love about the area.⁣⠀ {...}⁣⠀ •⁣⠀ •⁣⠀ •⁣⠀ #charlestonsc #explorecharleston #explorethesouth #southernliving #letsgoeverywhere #nomadlife #nomadiclife #rving #rvlife #roadlife #lifeontheroad #roadtrip #ontheroad #ontheroadagain #roadtripUSA #USAroadtrip #USAtravel #exploreeverywhere #wanderlusting #wanderlustvibes #goexplore #roadtrippers #discoveramerica #hittheroad #explorethestates #getoutandgo #findyourfreedom #findyouraway #neverstoptraveling #nextdestinationunknown⁣⠀

There’s nothing like afternoon tea! It’s such a special pastime for my mom and me, something we’ve been doing since I was a kid. So for my mom and step-dad’s visit with us to Savannah and Charleston, my mom’s one request was to go to afternoon tea in both places, and we were happy to oblige. It had always been a dream of hers to have tea in the South, so we made a point of fulfilling that dream for her. Justin didn’t used to be a fan of afternoon tea, thinking it would make him less of a man (shhh… that’s top secret, don’t tell him I told you that!). But I converted him once he realized it comes with an assortment of sweets. Now he’s a believer! I remember the first time Justin and I had afternoon tea together. We were Down Under visiting Sydney, Australia (LOVE!) and took a day trip to Blue Mountains National Park. After hiking down into the canyon there, spending all day exploring the eucalyptus forests and then taking the world's steepest railway, the Katoomba Scenic Railway, back up to the top, we came upon a lovely Victorian mansion (aka Lilianfels Blue Mountains Resort and Spa). ⠀⠀ When I found out they were serving afternoon high tea, I got silly happy and begged Justin to let us partake despite the fact that we were sweaty and dirty after hiking all day. How did I finally convince him and get him to try afternoon tea, you ask? By using his massive sweet tooth (okay, teeth - ALL of them!) against him and telling him there may be chocolate (his weakness). Call it bribery, but it worked, AND there WAS chocolate! #winwin Justin was in heaven, and he hasn’t argued with me about going to afternoon tea since! ⠀⠀ Tea doesn’t have to be “girly”, just be for little girls’ tea parties or ladies lunching, it’s something everyone can (and should in my opinion) enjoy! What’s something you’ve gotten your spouse/partner to enjoy (eventually) despite their initial resistance?

Fun with fountains! 👈🏻🤪 {...} • • • #charlestonsc #explorecharleston #letsgoeverywhere #nomadlife #nomadiclife #rving #rvadventure #rvnomads #roadlife #lifeontheroad #roadtrip #ontheroad #ontheroadagain #roadtripUSA #USAroadtrip #USAtravel #exploreeverywhere #rvlife #wanderlusting #wanderlustvibes #getoutandexplore #goexplore #roadtrippers #discoveramerica #hittheroad #explorethestates #getoutandgo #findyourfreedom #findyouraway #nextdestinationunknown

With views of Fort Sumter and the Charleston Harbor, the waterfront park of White Point Gardens is a lovely spot. Charleston is such a beautiful town, and one of our favorites. Did you know there are no skyscrapers in Downtown Charleston? That’s not by chance. City ordinances restrict building height to preserve the city’s historic charm and character by not allowing buildings to be taller than the tallest church steeple. And with steeples filling the skyline, it’s no wonder the city’s nickname is The Holy City. Just some #funfacts for ya. 😉 Tell us the most interesting fact you’ve learned from your travels!⁣ {...}⁣ •⁣ •⁣ •⁣ #charlestonsc #explorecharleston #letsgoeverywhere #nomadlife #nomadiclife #rvnomads #roadlife #lifeontheroad #roadtrip #ontheroad #ontheroadagain #roadtripUSA #USAroadtrip #USAtravel #exploreeverywhere #rvtrip #rvlife #wanderlusting #wanderlustvibes #getoutandexplore #goexplore #roadtrippers #discoveramerica #hittheroad #explorethestates #getoutandgo #findyourfreedom #findyouraway #nextdestinationunknown

Howdy from Charleston, SC! 👋 When we were traveling full-time, it felt like we were always rushing, only spending a few days in each place, trying to see and do it all. Looking back, we wish we had taken more time to experience places, but on the other hand, we managed to accomplish our goal and travel through each of the lower 48 states, so we can’t complain. It was exhausting, but we got to see and do A LOT! And now we have our list of places we want to go back to, take our time at, and really explore. We got a taste, and that created a hunger to truly savor certain places. Charleston was definitely one of those places we wanted to get back to. What are some places on your list to return to and spend more time at?⁣ {...}⁣ ⁣ •⁣ •⁣ •⁣ #nextdestinationunknown #letsgoeverywhere #nomadlife #nomadiclife #rvers #rvadventure #rvnomads #roadlife #lifeontheroad #roadtrip #ontheroad #ontheroadagain #roadtripUSA #USAroadtrip #USAtravel #exploreeverywhere #rvtrip #rvlife #rvlifestyle #rvliving #wanderlusting #wanderlustvibes #goexplore #roadtrippers #discoveramerica #hittheroad #explorethestates #getoutandgo #findyourfreedom #findyouraway
