Bicycles

Amsterdam is the bicycle capital of the world, but, you probably know that already! Did you know that the number of bikes is four times the number of cars and that 38% of daily trips are by bike? Perfect for any bike-lover!

Flowers

People who love flowers should make it their mission to visit The Netherlands where you can see gorgeous flowers, especially tulips, everywhere.

Bring Snacks

You definitely don’t have enough room in your suitcase to bring food for the entire trip, but you can always pack some snacks to have for emergencies. Dried fruit, energy bars, or kale chips are more than enough until you find other options in your destination.

Hit the Farmer’s Market

You can easily locate the farmer’s market even before you arrive at your destination. This is the perfect place to find fresh fruits, vegetables, and other ingredients you’ll need to make your meals. Plus, it’s the perfect opportunity to meet the locals and experience their culture.

Farmers market Saturday’s, up until it poured rain on us 😂 But on a real note, I don’t get here as often as I would like. And that’s ok, but I highly encourage you to try and start shopping more locally. You are able to connect with your food and your community. You only shop with the season so you always get the freshest produce and You are support LOCAL farmers that could probably use the money. So Instead of dropping into a grocery store, try setting aside time to shop at your local produce stores and markets . . #shopsustainably #shopsustainable #shoplocalproduce #shoplocal #farmersmarket #eatwell #eatwithpurpose #organic #vegan #glutenfree #eucalyptus #dill #farmersmarketfinds #farmersmarkets #localfarmers #wellnessjourney #wellnessblogger #lifestyleblogger #healthylifestyle #healthyfood #healthyliving

]]> You probably think you know everything there is to know about traveling. Packing your bags and hitting the road is not that hard. However, there are some travel mistakes you should try to avoid in the future.

Overpacking

Packing a bunch of unnecessary clothes and other items is the most common mistake everyone makes sometimes. Save yourself a lot of trouble and be wise when packing your bag, especially if you’re traveling by plane.

Relying on Guide Books

Guide books list all the important and most popular tourist attractions, but every city has a lot of hidden gems that are usually not included on those must-visit lists. Use the internet and other resources to find unusual bars, interesting museums and other places that might surprise you.  

Not Buying Insurance

Travel insurance will cost you only a few dollars and in return, you’ll feel safer while in a foreign country because you never know if you’ll need it.

Not Planning Your Travel Budget

Setting a realistic budget has many advantages—you’ll know exactly what you can afford on your travel and it can save you from many unpleasant surprises along the way such as running out of money.

]]> Japan is one of the most exotic countries to visit, with a rich history and beautiful culture. However, there are a few valuable rules a tourist should follow when in this country.

Here are a few tips you should be aware of before you travel to Japan.

No tipping

Tipping is not customary in Japan, so if you leave a tip in a restaurant they will probably refuse it, or worse, be offended.

https://www.instagram.com/p/B1A3864n_o3/

Politeness

Japanese are known for being very polite, so make sure you use polite phrases with a smile on your face and you’ll have no problem fitting in.

Bowing

Japanese have many rules, most of which you’re not obliged to follow as a tourist. Bowing is one of the most important customs when greeting a person, so it would earn you a lot of extra points for being polite.

https://www.instagram.com/p/B1Bil_FA35-/

Shoes

In Japan, you can be asked to remove the shoes before you enter a restaurant in an office, so it would be practical to wear something you can take off easily.

Payments

Finding an ATM that accepts foreign cards can be hard, so it would be great if you brought your traveler’s cheques or debit cards with you, just in case you need them.

]]> We can’t travel without music, but music can also inspire us to plan our next trip. These music videos combined great music with inspiring and surreal shots from around the world.  They’ll inspire you to pack your bags and hit the road.

Paradise by Coldplay

The video for this popular song shows the story oft a man in an elephant suit, who manages to escape from London’s zoo and decides to travel across South Africa. The video was shot in Western Cape and Johannesburg.

I’ll Show You by Justin Bieber

Have you seen the scene from this video when Justin Bieber emerges from a glacier lake? It looks pretty amazing and just like the rest of the video, it’s filmed in Iceland. Even if you’re not a fan of the young singer, this video is worth watching just because of the amazing shots and stunning landscapes.

The Nights by Avicii

This video produced by Rory Kramer is so good, it would inspire any person to seek an adventure. Kramer is also a daredevil and he documented his adventures on roller coasters, surfing, snowboarding and balloon flying for this video.

]]> Nature always finds a way to impress us all. These botanical gardens are located all over the world and are absolutely breath-taking. It doesn’t even matter if you are interested in plants as long as you want to rest your mind and enjoy the jaw-dropping beauty of these unique spots.

Nongnooch Tropical Botanical Garden, Thailand

Thailand is such a magical place! If you have enough time while you’re there make sure to spend at least several hours at the Nongnooch Tropical Botanical Garden. It is a popular attraction, but since it takes over 500 acres it definitely won’t be crowded.

Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden, Cape Town, South Africa

When we say breath-taking we mean the Kirstenbosch National Garden in Cape Town. Located on top of Table Mountain, the views from these gardens are a thing you only experience once in a lifetime.

Denver Botanic Gardens, Denver, USA

This is one of the most visited botanical gardens in America. One of the reasons is that it features the biggest collection of plants from cold climates.

Jardim Botanico, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Brace yourself for the tropical paradise on earth. Aside from the unique flora, it also has numerous species of birds and is the ideal spot for birdwatchers.

]]> Stumbling upon a lake in the middle of the desert is not the everyday view. All adventure travelers will want to know where to go if they want to see the most beautiful desert oasis in the world.

Huacachina, Ica, Peru

Peru is one of the most exciting countries in the world. The small area of Huacachina is actually populated and also open for tourists. If the road ever leads you to this part of the globe make sure to check it out. It will definitely be a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Ubari Oasis, Libya

Ubari is much more than an oasis in the middle of the desert. It’s also a spot where local people go to sell and trade goods. This is a region in the Sahara desert with a lake that is surrounded with palm trees.

Оазис #Убари, Ливия The #Ubari Lakes (#Awbari) of The Libyan Sahara В ливийской долине Тарга, между песчаными дюнами пустыни Эдейен–Убари лежит один из самых красивых в мире оазисов – оазис Убари. Располагается он в юго–западной части Ливии и представляет собой группу из 15–то соленых озер, которые являются остатками некогда большой водной экосистемы. Озера Убари окружены пышной растительностью. Это настоящий зеленый рай посреди пустыни. Концентрация соли в озерах очень велика и приравнивается к водам Мёртвого моря. Глубина же может составлять от 7–ми до 32–х метров. Самым большим в оазисе Убари является озеро Умм–Аль–Маа, название которого переводится, как Мать Воды. Озеро отличается очень высокой концентрацией соли и тем, что нижние его слои имеют очень высокую температуру, которая может достигать 100 градусов. Интересно, что при этом поверхность озера #УммАльМаа #UmmAlMaa продолжает оставаться холодной. #travel#traveling#travelling#traveler#vacation#instatravel#instatraveling#instatrip#touris#tourist#trip#путешествие#путешествия#путешествуем#поход#туризм #турист#туристы#поездка#отпуск#отдых #тур#путь

Wadi Bani Khalid, Oman

Going to Wadi Bani Khalid is a great idea! You will witness the most magnificent crystal blue pools and all of this in the middle of a desert.

Timia, Niger

This amazing oasis is located in Niger, and will most definitely take your breath away. Timia is a small town that also features a piece of land that is an absolute gem. This is a part of the Sahara desert.

]]> Spring break is here, all you need is to choose a destination where you’ll spend your short vacation. It’s time to get away from the busy everyday life and rest somewhere nice and unique.

Puerto Vallarta

Mexico is always considered to be not only one of the best but also one of the most affordable locations for spring break. Puerto Vallarta is not the first spot you think of when someone mentions Mexico, but it is so magical. If you want to relax on the beach with a cocktail in one hand and delicious fruit in the other, this is the perfect destination.

Tokyo

Japan is the prettiest in spring. The chances are you’ve already seen the cherry blossoms in Tokyo so many times on Instagram. You can now experience that magnificent view by booking a ticket to Tokyo.

Lake Como

Italy is so stunning once spring comes. Lake Como is located in the Lombardy region and is a great place to spend your mini-vacation. The lake, vibrant houses, great restaurants will capture your heart.

St. Lucia

The gorgeous Caribbean island of St. Lucia will provide you with the peace of mind you’ve been looking for. And it’s much more than beaches and palm trees.

]]> We all want to travel more, but don’t have unlimited vacation days nor the budget to do it. That’s why it’s important to save wherever you can and you’ll be able to squeeze an additional trip or two over the year, even if it’s just for the weekend. Here are our best money saving tips for travelers.

Find Free Tickets

Many museums and tourist attractions offer free entrance at certain times, so you may be able to save some money there. Also, you can look for free things to instead of checking out the main attractions for a unique experience.

Choose Hostels

Hostels are not what they used to be. Nowadays, you can easily find cheap accommodation (depending on location) that you share with other travelers, but that is actually perfectly comfortable, clean, and safe.

Turn Off Your Phone

Accidentally turning on mobile data can cost you a lot, and even international plans are rarely a good deal. Turn off your phone (or only use it for its camera) while you’re abroad instead!

Brigadeiros

Think of the most delicious truffles and double that taste! Brigadeiros are the best dessert that you’ll ever have. The classic version is chocolate, but you can also find them in many other tastes. Even the ones who are not big fans of sweet things will love these tiny balls.

Guide books list all the important and most popular tourist attractions, but every city has a lot of hidden gems that are usually not included on those must-visit lists. Use the internet and other resources to find unusual bars, interesting museums and other places that might surprise you.  

Not Buying Insurance

Travel insurance will cost you only a few dollars and in return, you’ll feel safer while in a foreign country because you never know if you’ll need it.

Not Planning Your Travel Budget

Setting a realistic budget has many advantages—you’ll know exactly what you can afford on your travel and it can save you from many unpleasant surprises along the way such as running out of money.

]]> Japan is one of the most exotic countries to visit, with a rich history and beautiful culture. However, there are a few valuable rules a tourist should follow when in this country.

Here are a few tips you should be aware of before you travel to Japan.

No tipping

Tipping is not customary in Japan, so if you leave a tip in a restaurant they will probably refuse it, or worse, be offended.

Politeness

Japanese are known for being very polite, so make sure you use polite phrases with a smile on your face and you’ll have no problem fitting in.

Bowing

Japanese have many rules, most of which you’re not obliged to follow as a tourist. Bowing is one of the most important customs when greeting a person, so it would earn you a lot of extra points for being polite.

Shoes

In Japan, you can be asked to remove the shoes before you enter a restaurant in an office, so it would be practical to wear something you can take off easily.

Payments

Finding an ATM that accepts foreign cards can be hard, so it would be great if you brought your traveler’s cheques or debit cards with you, just in case you need them.

]]> We can’t travel without music, but music can also inspire us to plan our next trip. These music videos combined great music with inspiring and surreal shots from around the world.  They’ll inspire you to pack your bags and hit the road.

Paradise by Coldplay

The video for this popular song shows the story oft a man in an elephant suit, who manages to escape from London’s zoo and decides to travel across South Africa. The video was shot in Western Cape and Johannesburg.

I’ll Show You by Justin Bieber

Have you seen the scene from this video when Justin Bieber emerges from a glacier lake? It looks pretty amazing and just like the rest of the video, it’s filmed in Iceland. Even if you’re not a fan of the young singer, this video is worth watching just because of the amazing shots and stunning landscapes.

The Nights by Avicii

This video produced by Rory Kramer is so good, it would inspire any person to seek an adventure. Kramer is also a daredevil and he documented his adventures on roller coasters, surfing, snowboarding and balloon flying for this video.

]]> Nature always finds a way to impress us all. These botanical gardens are located all over the world and are absolutely breath-taking. It doesn’t even matter if you are interested in plants as long as you want to rest your mind and enjoy the jaw-dropping beauty of these unique spots.

Nongnooch Tropical Botanical Garden, Thailand

Thailand is such a magical place! If you have enough time while you’re there make sure to spend at least several hours at the Nongnooch Tropical Botanical Garden. It is a popular attraction, but since it takes over 500 acres it definitely won’t be crowded.

Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden, Cape Town, South Africa

When we say breath-taking we mean the Kirstenbosch National Garden in Cape Town. Located on top of Table Mountain, the views from these gardens are a thing you only experience once in a lifetime.

Denver Botanic Gardens, Denver, USA

This is one of the most visited botanical gardens in America. One of the reasons is that it features the biggest collection of plants from cold climates.

Jardim Botanico, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Brace yourself for the tropical paradise on earth. Aside from the unique flora, it also has numerous species of birds and is the ideal spot for birdwatchers.

]]> Stumbling upon a lake in the middle of the desert is not the everyday view. All adventure travelers will want to know where to go if they want to see the most beautiful desert oasis in the world.

Huacachina, Ica, Peru

Peru is one of the most exciting countries in the world. The small area of Huacachina is actually populated and also open for tourists. If the road ever leads you to this part of the globe make sure to check it out. It will definitely be a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Ubari Oasis, Libya

Ubari is much more than an oasis in the middle of the desert. It’s also a spot where local people go to sell and trade goods. This is a region in the Sahara desert with a lake that is surrounded with palm trees.

Оазис #Убари, Ливия The #Ubari Lakes (#Awbari) of The Libyan Sahara В ливийской долине Тарга, между песчаными дюнами пустыни Эдейен–Убари лежит один из самых красивых в мире оазисов – оазис Убари. Располагается он в юго–западной части Ливии и представляет собой группу из 15–то соленых озер, которые являются остатками некогда большой водной экосистемы. Озера Убари окружены пышной растительностью. Это настоящий зеленый рай посреди пустыни. Концентрация соли в озерах очень велика и приравнивается к водам Мёртвого моря. Глубина же может составлять от 7–ми до 32–х метров. Самым большим в оазисе Убари является озеро Умм–Аль–Маа, название которого переводится, как Мать Воды. Озеро отличается очень высокой концентрацией соли и тем, что нижние его слои имеют очень высокую температуру, которая может достигать 100 градусов. Интересно, что при этом поверхность озера #УммАльМаа #UmmAlMaa продолжает оставаться холодной. #travel#traveling#travelling#traveler#vacation#instatravel#instatraveling#instatrip#touris#tourist#trip#путешествие#путешествия#путешествуем#поход#туризм #турист#туристы#поездка#отпуск#отдых #тур#путь

Wadi Bani Khalid, Oman

Going to Wadi Bani Khalid is a great idea! You will witness the most magnificent crystal blue pools and all of this in the middle of a desert.

Timia, Niger

This amazing oasis is located in Niger, and will most definitely take your breath away. Timia is a small town that also features a piece of land that is an absolute gem. This is a part of the Sahara desert.

]]> Spring break is here, all you need is to choose a destination where you’ll spend your short vacation. It’s time to get away from the busy everyday life and rest somewhere nice and unique.

Puerto Vallarta

Mexico is always considered to be not only one of the best but also one of the most affordable locations for spring break. Puerto Vallarta is not the first spot you think of when someone mentions Mexico, but it is so magical. If you want to relax on the beach with a cocktail in one hand and delicious fruit in the other, this is the perfect destination.

Tokyo

Japan is the prettiest in spring. The chances are you’ve already seen the cherry blossoms in Tokyo so many times on Instagram. You can now experience that magnificent view by booking a ticket to Tokyo.

Lake Como

Italy is so stunning once spring comes. Lake Como is located in the Lombardy region and is a great place to spend your mini-vacation. The lake, vibrant houses, great restaurants will capture your heart.

St. Lucia

The gorgeous Caribbean island of St. Lucia will provide you with the peace of mind you’ve been looking for. And it’s much more than beaches and palm trees.

]]> We all want to travel more, but don’t have unlimited vacation days nor the budget to do it. That’s why it’s important to save wherever you can and you’ll be able to squeeze an additional trip or two over the year, even if it’s just for the weekend. Here are our best money saving tips for travelers.

Find Free Tickets

Many museums and tourist attractions offer free entrance at certain times, so you may be able to save some money there. Also, you can look for free things to instead of checking out the main attractions for a unique experience.

Choose Hostels

Hostels are not what they used to be. Nowadays, you can easily find cheap accommodation (depending on location) that you share with other travelers, but that is actually perfectly comfortable, clean, and safe.

Turn Off Your Phone

Accidentally turning on mobile data can cost you a lot, and even international plans are rarely a good deal. Turn off your phone (or only use it for its camera) while you’re abroad instead!
