"Reading Terminal Market in Philadelphia is perfect for a solo date. With food options ranging from $5 to $15, you can savor everything from fresh produce to tasty prepared dishes. Take your time exploring the vibrant stalls, indulge in some delicious bites, and enjoy the lively atmosphere at your own pace. It’s a wonderful spot to treat yourself, discover new flavors, and immerse yourself in the unique charm of this iconic market."
"🌖 The market has literally been around since the late 1800s, so it's a piece of living, breathing history. It's undergone changes over the years but remains a Philly staple. 🛍️ The market has made-to-order hot and cold food, bakeries, candy shops, butchers, dairy shops, brick-and-mortar stores, and soooo much more cuz there are over 75 stalls."

"Begin your last day at Reading Terminal Market, an infamous market that first opened in 1893. With literally dozens of local food merchants, the choices are overwhelming! I recommend getting some coffee and a donut for breakfast from Federal Donuts or Beiler’s Bakery. "

🌎 Ever since finishing university 3 years ago, I have been full time travelling and volunteering for conservation projects. I absolutely love my lifestyle however can't lie tight budget is one of the downsides. Instead of giving up my travel dreams I just decided to become resourceful and find the perfect itineraries that still fit my tight budget and let me explore the world.

However, I know it can be overwhelming and tedious at times so I decided to share my research and my itinerary with you. All places mentioned here are places where I have been/stayed/eaten myself and can give you an honest review. 🇺🇲 In fall of 2022 I backpacked through East coast of the USA by myself without a car. I was a bit sceptical how it would go since USA is not a very popular backpacker destination. But I was happily surprised how easy it was and kept going from New York down to Virginia, meeting new people on the way and exploring incredible places. 🗽In this guide, you'll find an itinerary through the USA meant to take you through 3 states throughout 14 days following my footsteps.
