HOW TO (VIRTUALLY) travel THE world

Posted: 5/11/20 | may 11th, 2020

With the world on hold for the foreseeable, it’s going to be a long time before we get back on the road. even as we begin to look to the summer, it’s likely that numerous destinations will keep their doors shut to international travelers until the fall.

But that doesn’t imply we have to put our wanderlust on hold.

With the world at our virtual fingertips, there are plenty of ways to feed your inner traveler from the comfort of your bed.

Many destinations and museums now let you “visit them” virtually. and there are also plenty of incredible books you can read, interesting films and TV shows you can watch, and fun meetups and classes to join.

In short, you can still see the world from home. Here’s a list of ways you can travel practically and keep your wanderlust spirit alive:

Books

Reading is one of the best and many budget-friendly ways to “travel” when you’re stuck indoors. You can carry yourself to far-flung destinations and get inspired by the power of words — all from the comfort (and safety) of home.

Some terrific recent reads: The Yellow Envelope, Wanderlust, Ghengis Khan and the Making of the modern World, and An Irreverent Curiosity.

Here are a plethora of articles with much more books:

Movies

There are numerous incredible films to choose online best now. I imply between Hulu, HBO, Netflix, Amazon, and Disney+, you can get anything you want. (Netflix has been especially on fire this month.) some of my favorites:

Wild – based on the novel of the same name, this film follows Cheryl Strayed as she hikes the Pacific Crest trail as a way to restart her life, end her drug addiction, and cope with her mother’s death.

Midnight in Paris – I pretty much love every film about Paris, but this is one of my all-time favorites. The film follows Gil, a writer on getaway with his fiancée and her family. At night, he wanders the streets of Paris before stumbling into a time warp that sends him back to the 1920s.

The beach – Staring a young Leonardo DiCaprio, this film is about young backpackers who set out to find paradise while in Thailand.

Lost in Translation – This film takes you into the heart of chaotic Tokyo. bill Murray and Scarlett Johansson play two characters adrift in the the city together.
