Submitted by Wanderlust Andi

Traveling can and should be an adventure. There are so many aspects to traveling that are often overlooked or underestimated. By being aware of all of the great truths of traveling, you can be sure to really make each moment count whether you are traveling alone, with family or with friends. Whether you travel near and far, you should make the most of each moment by embracing some long held truths of traveling.

The list in the attached article is particularly poignant. I can particularly relate to many of of the items in the list, such as:

  • how you come to realize that you would much rather travel in a small car than have a huge home and other major material possessions
  • how you will always over pack - no matter how hard you try not to
  • how it is important to keep track of what you see and feel - through journaling and photos
  • how travel makes you see the world differently - it is a degree in life

If you have traveled at all, you are bound to find many points you can relate to in the article. And - if you have never traveled - this list could easily encourage you to take the next step towards travel!

Taking city tours while travelling

Submitted by Wanderlust Andi

When I travel I tend to spend many hours researching where to go and what to do. This planning can be very stressful and to be honest, I’m not very good at it. Taking a city tour is an inexpensive way to avoid some of that unpleasantness. Plus, I had never really considered the fact that everyone knows about the places mentioned online. It would be nice to learn about the places the locals appreciate and so few tourists really get to see.
