Iowa Riverfront Trail and the Headwaters Trail System Rail Trails often pass through/by state parks, national sites, and recreation areas.

For the past year, we’ve taken a deep dive into each Enneagram Type and how it may relate to travel. But when it comes to travel, we think understanding time orientation is the Enneagram’s most helpful aspect. If you understand your time orientation and your travel companions’ time orientation, you will begin to understand where the bulk of your conflicts on the road are coming from.
