]]>Recent research has shown that outdoor activities, when combined with wearing a mask while in close proximity to others, is a low-risk way to have fun while this pandemic continues.
With that in mind, here are three great things you can do while exploring a new city that are outside and have minimal risk.
Zoos are a great activity for the whole family at any time, but this outdoor attraction is especially great in 2020. Seeing majestic animals in an outdoor setting with your loved ones is a fantastic and safe way to spend a morning or afternoon.
Another great option during the ongoing pandemic is a visit to a city’s botanical garden. Most cities that are visited by tourists will have at least one to check out where you’ll be able to see impressive collections of both native and exotic flora.
One of the revolutions of the past couple of decades has been the introduction of urban parks in many cities around the globe. Oases of green in built-up environments can be the perfect, safe place to escape the hustle and bustle that surrounds you while visiting a city.

]]>So, how can we repay those professionals for their fantastic labor? These three gestures are great ways to show your gratitude to these tour guides.
Well, let’s be honest. No one will ever be disappointed by receiving a good tip, and being monetarily generous in this way is important. This is even more key if you’re going on a “free” walking tour, where the only salary that guides receive is their tips.
With the internet and websites like Tripadvisor and Google Reviews now at the disposition of travelers, a good base of reviews is the top asset that a tour guide can have in order to gain more business. If you were happy with the job they did, give them a positive review!
If you like giving tour guides something that will truly make you stand out, why not bring them a small keepsake from your home? Some tour guides enjoy collecting memories of the places where their customers have come from, and this is a really unique way to show your thanks.

]]>It’s extremely important to make an effort to keep your hands warm traveling during winter. Frozen hands can really keep you down and make your ski trip or city break in cold places uncomfortable, so here are some tips to help you avoid this.
One thing that is absolutely essential to keeping you comfortable while doing winter travel in cold destinations is having a pair of insulated gloves with you. These gloves trap heat in with your hands, whether it’s raining, snowing, or simply a bitterly cold day. Don’t forget these at home!
Looking to add an extra layer of warmth? Why not stop at a coffee shop and grab a hot drink to go? Not only will a to-go cappuccino or latte warm your body and taste delicious, but holding it in your hands will ensure that they don’t get too cold.
Have you ever heard of Hot Hands before? These little portable warmers are a lifesaver, containing material that heats up when activated. You can keep them in your pockets or in your gloves on really cold days to ensure that your hands don’t freeze up.

]]>Every big city offers walking tours and many of them advertise as “free tours” where you pay based off of a tip at the end. Not only do walking tours help you learn your way around the city, but they will also teach you bits of interesting history and give you tips of what to see and how to best utilize your time. It’s a great way to start a visit!
History Museum
Every city and country is unique and most of the time, history has played a major role in that. Who ruled them in the past? What wars have they fought in? What are the climate and region like? History museums will answer many of these questions and give you a better understanding of the culture in each city.
Local Restaurant
One thing that everyone enjoys and has in common is bonding over food. Locals always appreciate when tourists go to the smaller, locally owned shops and many times they will be happy to strike up a conversation about what it’s like to live there. What better way to get to know the city than talking to a local, small business owner who makes great food!

]]>Located at 37 Rue de la Bûcherie and filled to the brim with literary classics as well as a variety of newly published books, this bookstore is an absolute must-see for every book lover. The trademark dark green exterior is hard to miss, and the cozy interior invites you to spend hours casually browsing books, with a cup of your favorite coffee or tea in hand.
This little cafe is located in Montmartre, very close to the famous Moulin Rouge, but what makes this place particularly charming is the fact that it was used as the set of the movie Amelie. For fans of the movie, being here can be a surreal experience, but even for casual visitors, it is a great space to rest after hours of walking and sightseeing.
This giant wall, composed of blue enameled lava tiles on which the phrase “I love you” is written 311 times in 250 languages, is a little harder to locate, but if you step into the Jehan Rictus garden square in Montmartre, you’ll be sure to find it. The mural was created in 2000 by the French artist Fédéric Baron, and it is the perfect spot for picture-taking, especially if you’re visiting it with your loved one.

]]>If you don’t have time or budget for a proper vacation this year, don’t underestimate a city break to someplace nearby. It will help you change perspective and you’ll return home ready to tackle responsibilities and be productive.
A city break is a great way to get to know the world around you, the places that may only be a few hours away but you never really got to visit them before.
If you get a Monday or Friday off, that’s a great opportunity for a long weekend away that you should use whenever you get the chance! It’s definitely better than binge-watching Netflix for 3 days straight.

]]>It’s important to be comfortable even when the mercury climbs. So, here are four tips that will help you stay cool while exploring cities this summer!
“Light” in this case refers to two things: both the weight and the color of the fabric.
Avoid dark colors and heavy fabrics like wool in order to keep your body cool in the summertime.
Water is your best ally against overheating. Keep a liter or so of cold water in a temperature-resistant thermos and carry it with you, being sure to drink regularly!
Instead of roasting outside all day, it’s nice to get a break inside an air-conditioned space at times. Grab a quick lunch or snack in a place with air conditioning in order to cool off.
It’s amazing how much wearing socks can make you feel hotter. Wearing sandals helps you feel much more fresh and cool during hot weather travel!

]]>If you belong to the second group of people, you absolutely must follow @theprettycities on Instagram.
Siobhan Ferguson, the founder of the Pretty Cities brand, curates this account which showcases different Instagrammers’ shots of cities around the world. Instead of just reflecting one person’s experiences in a limited group of cities, it instead draws photos and inspiration from a big community of travel bloggers and amateur photographers.
The Pretty Cities provides snapshots of a wide range of cities, from large, internationally-known capitals to smaller and more unknown cities that have a charm that many haven’t experienced.
Urbanism is enough to excite any city lover, and the harmonious blend between shops, pedestrians, commuters, and tourists define the environment of any city that experiences tourism. The Pretty Cities puts the focus on places where this blend has been achieved.
In short, if you love cities and want to find ideas for your next destination, I cannot recommend this account enough!
