3 . Tips For Making Travel Easy & Fun
Curious about how to travel the world? I’ve been traveling around the world for many years as a digital nomad. And I have tons of useful travel tips from my journey. I’ll share my favorite ones with you all.
Make yourself patient
Patience is my top travel tip. Don’t sweat the things you can’t control. Life is much too short to be angry and annoyed all the time while traveling. Did you miss your bus?
Rise before sunrise to have the best attractions all to yourself while avoiding large tourist crowds. It’s also a magical time for photos due to soft diffused light, and it’s usually easier to interact with locals getting ready for their day.
Observe daily life around you
If you really want to get a feel for the pulse of a place, why not spend a few hours sitting in a park or on a busy street corner by yourself just watching day to day life happen in front of you.
Laugh at yourself sometimes
Volunteer occasionally
Make it a point to volunteer some of your time for worthwhile projects when traveling.
A.You need to get there before the bus arrives |
B.No worries, there will be another one |
C.Not only is it a very rewarding experience |
D.You will definitely look like a fool many times |
E.Break out of your comfort zone |
F.Wake up early to avoid crowds |
G.Slow down your train of thought and pay close attention to the details around you |
A.Over 5,000 rooms. | B.Exactly 10,000 rooms. | C.Over 9,000 rooms. |

6 . As the world becomes more connected in the 21st century, it’s high time to learn to travel as a respectful tourist.
Being a respectful tourist starts with understanding the traditions, customs, and values of the places you visit.
Being culturally aware also means avoiding any disrespectful behavior, like climbing on monuments (纪念碑) or touching artworks. Leave the landmarks as you find them so that future generations can enjoy them too.
Respect for residents
When you’re travelling, it’s easy to get caught up in the excitement of exploring new places.
Moral souvenirs
Souvenirs (纪念品) are a fun way to remember your travels. A respectful tourist makes responsible choices when it comes to souvenirs.
So, let’s change the impolite behavior for a considerate approach.
A.Species diversity |
B.Cultural consideration |
C.Do some research about the local culture |
D.This not only helps the local economy but also promotes sustainable development |
E.However, it’s important to remember that for the locals, these destinations are their homes |
F.Together, we can be the change that makes travel not just a pleasure for us but a gift to the world |
G.Respect local wildlife by observing them from a distance and not interfering with their behaviors |
7 . Head to This Beautiful UK Beach
The clocks may have changed, but sunbathing isn’t yet on the UK’s weather forecast.
When spring comes, Camber Sands looks like your best bet for a warm day at the beach. The East Sussex spot gets warm quickest in spring, hitting average highs of 19℃ throughout the season.
How to get to Camber Sands
Camber Sands is just two hours away from London by car, but it’s often quicker to travel from the capital by train. The nearest station is Rye, which you can get to from London St Pancras with a change at Ashford International. The journey takes just over an hour. Once you’re at Rye, you’ll then need to get a bus or rent a bike to the beach. It takes half an hour to get there by bike.
Things to do at Camber Sands
Apart from enjoying the sun, Camber Sands is also a popular location for kitesurfing and windsurfing. You can also explore the historic buildings of Rye, play a round at one of the many nearby golf courses, or take a RIB seal safari (观兽旅行) to get a look at the native wildlife.
