Traveling is a form of freedom. Having the opportunity to see different parts of the world is a gift in itself and should never be taken for granted. Since this whole virus thing, traveling has been put on pause. But that doesn’t mean you can’t dream about it, right?

We thought it would be fun to share some of our favorite Instagram travel influencers. And while you explore their beautiful feeds, you can plan for your post-quarantine destinations. Travel GOALS.

when you know better, you do better…. • So in 2013, I traveled to Thailand for the first time and one of the excursions we did was elephant trekking in Koh Samui. At the time, I knew very little about the cruel training conditions those elephants are subjected to and how they are beaten into submission when they are young in order to give tourists rides. • • Now fast forward to 2020, I’m a much more seasoned eco-traveler. I care a lot about the environment and the type of organizations I support. When my friend @livewithanita invited me to join her at @chailaiorchid , I was excited to learn that the elephant sanctuary is one of the few places in Thailand that helps rescued elephants while keeping them in their natural habitat. I’ll be sharing more about this amazing place in the next few posts… ❤️🐘 • • • • • • #thailandtravel #chiangmaithailand #chialaiorchid #sustainabletravel #savetheanimals #ecotourism #travelblogger #thailand #passportready #thailand #globetrotters #bloggerlifestyle #bloggersofinstagram #travelnoire #byopassion #sheisnotlost #dametraveler #travelmemories #womentravelers

@mimikey

Now this girl’s feed is truly adventurous! She has taken staying home to a whole other level. Like lounging in your underwear on the rooftop ledge… But seriously, the way she shows off parts of China make you want to hop on a plane (with a mask on) and visit. Just WOW.

“The kids in elementary school here are not obligated to fast. Children usually start fasting when they’re a little older, and they usually start progressively, fasting for a few hours to half a day, working their way up. Once they hit puberty they usually begin fasting the full Ramadan days. My kids are Indian and Catholic and have never fasted, but they’ve grown up their entire childhood here in Dubai, so they have learned to respect their classmates that are fasting. They are not obligated to do anything in their classroom, but they prefer to walk outside of the room to drink water to be respectful towards their friends.” – Poornika

*Save post for future trip planning* 🤗❤️ *Blog Post Link in Bio 👆 . I have never seen a country like this. Where the Arabian Nights came alive every corner I turned. Towering minarets and turquoise-colored domes to jewel-like sparkling facades. This is yet another destination that is underrated and wildly misunderstood as unsafe because of the country’s proximity to war torn Afghanistan . I didn’t go just to sightsee, I also went to connect with the people. And connect I did. How glorious every interaction was. Our eyes exchanged smiles, our gestures spoke volumes, our hearts embraced in spite of our language & cultural barriers. From a brown woman’s perspective I was welcomed in Uzbekistan like I have been welcomed in no other country. . ❗️Their love for Bollywood resulted in me becoming besties with everyone who realized I was Indian. . ❗️Their curiosity for tourists resulted in an open-mindedness and warmth that is hard to find in many places today. . ❗️Economically India plays a huge role in Uzbekistan in the pharma and healthcare sectors, and in Information Technology. AND the person who built India’s Taj Mahal was none other than the descendant of Uzbekistan’s Timur the conqueror? The historical connection is undeniable. . *There’s never been a better time to put this country on your list. My detailed guide to everything you need to know about Uzbekistan PLUS the artisans I met and what I learnt is now live – link in bio 👆Is this country on your bucketlist? . #uzbekistan #everydayofmaychallenge #uzbekistan🇺🇿 #uzbekistan_inst #uzbekistantravel #visituzbekistan #traveluzbekistan #borntotravel #voyaged #sheisnotlost #damestravel #darlingescapes #dametraveler #wearetravelgirls #sheswanderful #uniquedestinations #wowplanet #wowplacestogo #wowplaces #speechless #speechlessplaces #cntravellerindia #travelandleisure #telltnlindia #afarmag #matadornetwork #traveldeeper #earthfocus #earthshotz #natgeotravel

Happy Friday! I hope you are staying safe and healthy.⁣ ⁣ Here are 10 things that are keeping me sane and productive right now:⁣ ⁣ 1. The 21 Day Free Meditation Created By Deepak Choprak And Oprah It is about Finding Hope in Uncertain Times. ⁣ ⁣ 2. Self care and pampering Personally, I enjoy making my own body scrub, consisting of honey, oats, brown sugar and almond oil.  I even use it on my face. I totally love how my skin feels afterwards. ⁣ ⁣ 3. Yoga 🧘‍♀️ Personally I have a yearly subscription with MyYogaWorks, which I can do from anywhere, but I also wrote a blog post on Dreamsinheels.com about Free Yoga classes you can do as well. Check it out!⁣ ⁣ 4. Reading I’m re-reading right now my favorite book, The Alchemist by Paulo Coello. This book changed my life forever. ⁣ ⁣ 5. Virtual Meetings (Happy hours) I have been joining zoom video calls every week with the @digitalnomadgirls community, also with travel bloggers & even with closed friends. It feels so good to interact with my close friends, to see them, and to even have wine confessions, ha-ha! ⁣ ⁣ 6. Writing. I have been creating and publishing a lot of content on my blog. You can find there other ideas to keep productive at home, travel inspiration for the future, etc. Go to the blog and get inspired! ⁣ ⁣ 7. Organizing my travel photos/videos If you travel a lot, even if you are not a blogger, you probably have a lot of photos and/or videos as a result. Download google photos, back up your phone and create more space on your device for the future. Or use something like Dropbox to back it all up. ⁣ 8. Learning quick recipes online I’m definitely not a chef, but trying new recipes online is fun.⁣ ⁣ 9. Taking courses online, I’m taking a bunch of courses online right now to improve my business skills & for self development. Currently taking the free course from Yale, The Science of Well being. ⁣ ⁣ 10. Walking around my neighborhood or spending time in the backyard. It feels good to be able to at least walk a little, of course while practicing social distancing. The weather in Atlanta has been amazing and I need the Vitamin D to keep sane. ⁣ ⁣ What about you? How are you coping with all of this?
