It\u2019s a full on meltdown when I\u2019m hungry. Put that together with being tired and game over. So here\u2019s how I solve that &#8211; snacks. I always travel with bags of snacks that I can mix and match for whatever happen. A few of my favorites include all the delicious eats pictured above&#8230;.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Pretzels<\/li>\n<li>m&amp;m&#8217;s<\/li>\n<li>popcorn<\/li>\n<li>dried fruit<\/li>\n<li>terra chips<\/li>\n<li>dates<\/li>\n<li>gum<\/li>\n<li>almonds<\/li>\n<li>caramel filled chocolate<\/li>\n<li>Also be sure to stock up on water. It\u2019s mandatory.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Here\u2019s the second key to an epic road trip\u2026. you need a comfy <a href=\"http:\/\/www.volvocars.com\/us\/buy\/sales\/overseas-delivery\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">car<\/a>. If you\u2019re going to park your butt in a seat for a few hours a day, you want to be comfortable. Obviously. Volvo hooked us up with a V60 Cross Country\u00a0for our West Sweden road trip and it was everything! Heated seats, moon\/sunroof, all the gadgets, blind spot notification\u2026 the whole nine yards. I was so obsessed I convinced my parents to buy a Volvo once I got home. They didn\u2019t take advantage of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.volvocars.com\/us\/buy\/sales\/overseas-delivery\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">overseas delivery program<\/a> BUT they should have!! When you buy a Volvo with the overseas delivery program, you get 2 free airfare tickets to Gothenburg so you can pick up your new ride, and then you can take an epic road trip around Sweden before dropping the car back off in Gothenburg and flying home. Then a few weeks later, your car will be in your garage and ready for you to enjoy full time! And if and when you take advantage of that killer offer &#8211; you can use my guide to <a href=\"https:\/\/dev.afterhoursagency.com\/wgc\/gabys-guide-to-gothenburg\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Gothenburg<\/a> and my post on 5 things not to miss in <a href=\"https:\/\/dev.afterhoursagency.com\/wgc\/5-things-not-miss-west-sweden\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">West Sweden<\/a> to get you around!! Since getting home from I got to drive the brand new XC90 Volvo and basically my whole life has changed.
