Go in shoulder season, spring or fall. Summer gets humid in the south, winters can be brutal inland but ski resorts are excellent.

Tipping culture took some getting used to, servers expect 15-20%. Also, major sights get packed by late morning, go early or at dusk.

Louez une voiture hors aéroport pour éviter les grosses surtaxes, prenez la navette gratuite jusqu'au parking. J'ai économisé plus de $50 lors de mon dernier voyage à travers le pays.

Food scene blew my mind, pizza in NYC and seafood on the coast. Distances are huge though, expect long drives or extra flights.

Les musées Smithsonian sont gratuits, mais les populaires comme Air and Space ont des entrées à horaire. Réserve en ligne la veille au soir et vise l'après-midi.
