According to recent polling from YouGov, less than two percent of Americans have actually visited all 50 states – but Emily Hart is one of them.<\/p>

The former math teacher turned travel writer and influencer spoke with ABC15’s Nick Ciletti about what her strategy was to check every state off her list.<\/p>

Emily says it all started with a quest to see all 63 national parks (she’s seen all of them, too!)<\/p>

As a teacher, Emily had summers off so she would take advantage of long breaks.<\/p>

“I really enjoy the small towns and finding the hidden gems,” explains Emily. “There’s really interesting and unique things about everywhere in the country.”<\/p>

To start, Emily says think about how you can see multiple states on the same trip.<\/p>

“I tried to plan it out so it wasn’t 50 different trips,” Emily says. “It was easier in the Northeast than it was in the West!”<\/p>\n

Emily achieved her goal in 2023, with her final state being Vermont!<\/p>

“I was there during peak fall colors!”<\/p>

For Emily, the most important thing you can bring on a trip like this is an open mind.<\/p>

“It makes you so much less judgmental,” she says. “When I hear people stereotype…You can’t say what these people think or believe if you haven’t been there.”<\/p>
