The coronavirus pandemic meant that people with a sense of adventure had to temporarily pause one of their most enjoyable passions. With traveling temporarily off the table, many of us spent lockdown wondering about all the things we’d do once the world was open again. Well, now, the world is open again, by and large. And that means that it might be time to hit the road again. 

Need some ideas? Watch some travel videos and get recommendations from friends. Humbo is also a great way to get inspired about new destinations.

Out of practice? Don’t worry — we’ve got you covered. In this blog, we’ll run through some useful tips that’ll ensure you spend more time traveling than ever before.

Local Exploration

You can start local, and then branch out to other locations. Not that you need to go all the way across the world to have a fun adventure. Not at all! There’ll be plenty of places near your home that you could explore at the weekend. Remember, traveling is as much about your state of mind as it is about anything else. So take a look at any hikes, cities, or other places of interest that are located close to your property. You might just find that you can have an awesome time without going too far! 

Remote Work

One of the main things that prevents people from traveling as much as they’d like is their job. If you have to be in the same place Monday – Friday, then you can’t exactly travel the world! However, if you have a job that doesn’t require you to be in any one location, then that’s just what you can do. Many people found that they could do their jobs online during the coronavirus pandemic, and now that you know that, it could be time to get out there and see the world. So long as your boss is OK with it, you could be working from a beach pretty soon!

Use All Your Time

Maybe you need to stay at home or just don’t want to become a digital nomad. That’s fine! You can travel more by using all the time that’s allocated to you. You’ll likely have a few weeks of vacation time that you can use. But you’ll also have many other days, too — there are a bunch of holidays, for instance, so why not use those days to take a little trip? You might not be able to go super far with a four-day weekend, but you can still travel to somewhere exciting.

Invest in a Place

One of the best ways to spend more of your time traveling is to invest in a place that allows you to visit many other areas. If you buy a property overseas, then you’ll be able to enjoy all the fun of that destination plus all the destinations around it. People that move to Dubai don’t just get to enjoy one of the world’s great cities — they also have cheap and affordable flights to many countries around Dubai, too. Plus, having property overseas can just make traveling more straightforward. It’s nice to land after a long flight and spend time in a place that feels like home!
