Vacations are great but if you are planning on getting more out of your next trip, you need to head beyond the resort and trade in some comfort for adventure. Here are our top tips for going on an inspirational journey rather than a beach vacation.

Chat With Locals

If you want to really get to know the place you are visiting, chat with the locals rather than foreign tour guides. Eat where the locals eat and drink where the locals drink. Keep your mind open and greet people in their native language. You’ll discover a whole new side of your destination this way and have far more memorable experiences.

Prepare

Travel insurance. Vaccines. Visas. Say it over and over again until it sticks. You cannot travel without these three things. Find out what vaccinations you need based on where you are going and if you need a visa, apply in advance. You can’t have life-changing memories if you get turned down at the border.

Be Flexible

Having an itinerary is great but if you want to embrace spontaneity, you need to be flexible. Allow yourself the freedom to change plans last minute, jump on a tour bus with some friends you met at your hostel and seize the day. Choose flexible tickets where possible and don’t book things up too far in advance.
