Resources, Tips & Tricks:
- Slow travel VS Fast Travel - Figure out what type of traveller you are.
- Figure out what you like and don't like based on your interests.
- Try and avoid FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out) Accept that you may not be able to see everything and may need to return. This can lead to burnout.
- Plan as much as you can but be prepared for things to not go as planned
- Re: COVID-19. Consider the destinations data (Confirmed Cases). Also, consider the destinations' ability to handle an increased number of confirmed COVID numbers. You don't want to be a burden on the destination's health care system.
- Re: COVID-19. Now is a good time to explore your own backyard
- Arrive at the airport early to unnecessary stress (long lines at check-ins, at security, getting to your gate etc)
- Before booking your flight research the Airline COVID-19 policies and procedures. Also, inquire about the Airline's return policy and/or book with a credit card or credit card with specific flight insurance.
- Deep Breathing & Self Talk can be helpful during turbulence - more of this in the next episode with Dr. Stacie Appel Boyar, Counselor, MSEd, LMHC as well as meditation.
- Embrace the destination. Don't compare it to where you came from.
"When you travel, remember that a foreign country is not designed to make you comfortable. It is designed to make its own people comfortable" - Clifton Fadiman
