Plan Ahead
Even as last-minute travellers, there are times where we must be planning something. This happen often at the last moment, but now that we are stranded at home, it is the perfect time to start looking around for some great adventures and start planning them.
Once the foundation is laid out, we just need to find a great last-minute deal when we will be able to travel once more.
For example, I dream of doing the Haute Route, a thru-hike from Chamonix (France) to Zermatt (Switzeland), I started looking for information about it and see how we can camp there, cook, or stay in refuge.
Pin on google Map
This is similar to planning ahead but really dedicated to Google map. As soon as we have a place we wish to go, we had it in our google map. This way, when we can travel, we just look at the map and see where we could go. Or, if we find a great deal, maybe we already have some ideas about where we will be going.
Google Map VR
Google Map VR
If you are a fan Virtual Reality and have the gear for it, download Google Map VR and travel from home in a Virtual World. We tested it in our friend’s place, and it is super well made. This could be a great way to Wanderlust from Home.
Explore Flight Paths
Most of the airport have flight path somewhere on their site, even small one. You can look up for their direct flight and start planning on where you could be going once the end of the isolation.
Or, you could just look up Skyscanner to see Worldwide flight path. You cannot book any of them, but it is fun seeing them.
Online Museum Tour
If you do like museums, Google and over 2000 leading Museums and Galleries have teamed up to bring up a new type of online exhibits. Google Arts & Culture offers high-resolution images and videos of artworks and cultural artifacts from partner cultural organizations throughout the world.
Watch your old pictures
You all have big photo library, that most of the time, we do not even look at. Now is the time to go through your old pictures and live once again your past adventures.
When we do it, we notice that we forget that we even had those pictures and always have a great time watching them.
“A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.” – Lao Tzu.
