Hello, everyone! Are we tired of the pandemic yet? How about those wildfires? Or those murder hornets? Hey, there's still another three and a half months left of 2020, so who knows if there'll be something new to spice up our lives!
If you're feeling a little stir crazy, like me, staying at home and not traveling because of current world circumstances, have I got the cure for you--armchair travel! Perhaps you heard of it? When you have to stay in one place, it's about taking a virtual vacation somewhere in the world through your mind. There are different modes of transportation:
- Books! (You knew I had to say it.)
- Movies.
- Watch travel shows. (Rick Steves, anyone?)
- Go on virtual tours of museums online.
- Cooking foods of various locales.
- Ordering takeout from a Thai, Ethiopian, German, etc. restaurant.
- Pull out old photos of places you've been.
- Plan future trips to take when all the craziness is over.
- Read travel blogs.
- Make a travel soundtrack of different songs and music.

Just because we can't travel physically doesn't mean that we can't travel mentally. The possibilities of where we can go virtually are endless. Tatooine or Vulcan, anyone?
Wishing you wonderful armchair travels from the perch.
