Here’s Why Staying at Home Might Work in Favour of Your Next Trip!

Unhappy about the fact that the multiple short hops from the bedroom to the living room is probably the most you can travel in the coming days? While this sounds like a nightmare for travel lovers, there are several ways in which you can utilise this time to enhance your future #TravelDiaries.

So, here is what you can do to keep the travel-bug in check during this self-isolation period, and make your next trip an awesome one.

Read Up Travelogues for the Next Trip Idea

This is the perfect time to relax on your couch and read all those travel books and magazines that have been lying around for ages. Travel virtually through the dusty lanes of the Silk Road with “Lands of Lost Borders: A Journey on the Silk Road” by Kate Harris, explore the continent of Africa with “Dark Star Safari: Overland from Cairo to Cape Town” by Paul Theroux, and learn the art of planning a trip for more than a week with “Vagabonding: An Uncommon Guide to the Art of Long-Term World Travel” by Rolf Potts.

There are plenty of literary works to satiate the traveller in you and provide fresh perspectives and ideas to help you plan your next vacation.

Update Your Bucket List

After reading all those exciting travelogues and travel magazines, you’ll surely be fantasizing about your next trip! So, this might be the right time to update your ‘bucket list’. For those who scoff at the idea of a bucket list, remember, it helps keep track of the places you want to visit and the experiences you wish to tick off, ensuring that you plan your vacations more systematically. In fact, you can have more than one bucket list. For instance, one with all the places that you want to visit before turning 40 and the other with the most thrilling adventures that you wish to try.

Save Up & Plan Your Next Trip

With the whole country going under lockdown, this is undoubtedly a very difficult time! But, it isn’t going to be this way forever. Once things go back to normal, you will probably be stuck catching up with work and everything else, having no time to spare for planning a holiday.

So, now is the time to make a detailed plan for your next trip, and start saving for it too! Research on the places that you wish to cover, list the documents that you will be needing in case of an international trip, and so on.
