I don\u2019t have kids or a tattoo on my face, but I do have that box of pages ripped out from National Geographic Traveller. This collection is one of my most prized possessions. A colourful assortment of faded, crumpled glossy pages, each one bearing a destination that caught my eye or rather the hallmarks of my wanderlust.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whenever I\u2019m feeling down, I\u2019ll flip through old issues of the magazine and read the editor notes written by George W. Stone. I want that man to write my obituary, but even his words can\u2019t take away the sting of this insane turn of events over the past few weeks.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The coronavirus (COVID-19) has ruthlessly ripped its way through our world, destroying lives and businesses in its wake, and the travel industry has taken the brunt of its brute force. Then just this week, one by one every country began to shut down their borders to stem the flow of this virus, and travel media company Skift declared March 14th, 2020 as the <a href=\"https:\/\/skift.com\/2020\/03\/15\/the-day-the-world-stopped-traveling-a-letter-from-skift-founder\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Day the World Stopped Travelling (opens in a new tab)\">Day the World Stopped Travelling<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" >\r\n<p style=\"margin-top: 1em;\"><em>See Also: <\/em><strong><a href=\"\/days-to-come\/the-truth-about-travel-writing-at-4500m-above-sea-level\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Truth About Travel Writing at 4500m Above Sea Level<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" ><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Given everything that\u2019s going on with the industry right now, is it time to break up with travel? Is this how the music dies for myself and so many other travel lovers? The answer is a resounding no.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Like music, travel finds its way under our skin and stays with us. Like a song, it has the power to take us on a journey that lasts long after we come home. For many travellers, what they experience as they explore the world becomes part of who they are. It\u2019s hard to break away from something like that.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Years ago, I came across a funny quote about writers but was never able to find it again. It said something like this; \u201cthat even when I\u2019m sitting under the duvet eating peanuts, I\u2019m still writing.\u201d The point being that even though we can\u2019t physically travel right now, does that mean we have to come to a stop? Because even while reading this, your travels are with you.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-src=\"\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Himalayas-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"climber with a backpack stands in front of mountain peaks with colourful flags\" class=\"wp-image-23183 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Himalayas-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Himalayas-900x600.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Himalayas-434x289.jpg 434w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Himalayas-868x579.jpg 868w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Himalayas.jpg 1080w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/683;\" \/><figcaption>Even when you&#8217;re not travelling, the memories of your travels are with you | \u00a9 Sahar Aman<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n<div>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" >\r\n<p style=\"margin-top: 1em;\"><em>See Also: <\/em><strong><a href=\"\/days-to-come\/tips-for-how-to-travel-like-a-local-authentic-travel-experiences\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tips for How to Travel Like a Local<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" ><\/div>\n\n\n<p>From the faint bug bite scars on your legs \u2014 a gift from the Amazon Jungle and catching glimpses of blue that remind you of a clear day in Amalfi; to a scent in the air that takes you back to a hot, humid day beside the Arabian Sea and comforting yourself with memories of the Himalayas while on the way to work. Then there\u2019s the stuff that we can\u2019t always see or touch, but travel proves to be a catalyst for them: self-growth, empathy, and confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our memories and experiences from travel move us and impact our lives even while standing still on the spot. And at a time like this \u2014 more than ever before \u2014 we need to keep those life-enriching memories and experiences alive.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The more popular ways to do this include cooking dishes that you ate while travelling or reconnecting with the people you met on your travels. Some of the lesser-known tricks include making time for the things you love to do while travelling. Have you ever tried to find the best place to catch a sunset where you live? How about learning more about something that caught your attention in a museum or an art gallery? And even at home, prioritising experiences over material things can keep that feeling you get while discovering a new place alive.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-src=\"\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/C92F2517-0664-46B0-A661-6DB5FA2AD60A-min-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Girl stands in a tree looking out across the stunning bay of La Boca in Trinidad\" class=\"wp-image-15785 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/C92F2517-0664-46B0-A661-6DB5FA2AD60A-min-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/C92F2517-0664-46B0-A661-6DB5FA2AD60A-min-900x600.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/C92F2517-0664-46B0-A661-6DB5FA2AD60A-min-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/C92F2517-0664-46B0-A661-6DB5FA2AD60A-min.jpg 1080w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/683;\" \/><figcaption>You can cultivate a traveller&#8217;s mindset even when you&#8217;re at home | \u00a9 Sahar Aman <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n<div>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" >\r\n<p style=\"margin-top: 1em;\"><em>See Also: <\/em><strong><a href=\"\/days-to-come\/travel-writer-experiences-in-marrakesh\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">How to Experience Marrakesh Like a Travel Writer<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\r\n<hr style=\"width: 100px; height: 2px; border: 0; background-color: #222; margin-left: 0; opacity: 1\" ><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Day-to-day, there are so many ways to live and breathe through our travels \u2014 but if you only live for moments you travel \u2014 you\u2019re going to miss out everything it has to offer you. Travel<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>isn\u2019t limited to the physical act of exploring the world. The same way a real writer is always writing, in their own way, a real traveller is still travelling.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And no matter where you choose to go after this time is over \u2014 be it the vibrant streets of China or the cultural havens of Iran \u2014 that trip is going to be spectacularly memorable regardless of what you see or do or eat. It will be a symbolic moment in your journey as a traveller, one that reminds you what a privilege it is to travel, to have the freedom and ability to explore this beautiful world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So don\u2019t break up with travel, and don\u2019t live for travel \u2014 travel to live. Once things get better, we\u2019ll do it again. Because if the spirit of Italy\u2019s melodic balconies is anything to go by, music is the food of love, and it will play on.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s a break, not a break up.
