Originally posted on May 16, 2016 @ 10:31 am

Do you take precautions when you are on vacation to make sure that you aren’t harming the area you are visiting?

There are more things than garbage that can mess up the environment though. You want to clean up after pets, and maybe even watch what you are putting into the air from your way of transportation to the fact that you might be a smoker. [Read more…]

Going traveling? Make a checklist of the things that you need before you hit the road. And not a mental checklist. A real, physical, paper one. That you can look at and mark on. Because if you don’t do that, you’re going to forget things, and then you’re going to have to buy them, irritably, after you’ve already departed for your destination.

And some common things that everyone needs before taking off? Your classic journey luggage – sunglasses, water, travel snacks, phone charging packs and cables, and your traveling music playlist. Forget any of these things, and you’ll be sorry! [Read more…]

Ways to Live A Healthy Life While On the Road

Life on the road is no easy life. Luckily for most of the population, life on the road isn’t defined by days, weeks, or months spent in airports or in a van going from destination to destination making a living. Musicians do this, salesmen used to do this, and business people today still do this. It’s an exhausting sort of life to live.

The road itself has quite an allure if you’re not forced to be on it for most of the time you’re alive. Travel is fun, and seeing new destinations is an adventure, especially if you have the kind of spirit that thrives on newness and the thrill of wanderlust. Regardless of if you are the kind of person who lives their life on the road some 300 or so days out of the year, or if you’re just hitting the blacktop for a little adventure and sightseeing on a vacation, there are struggles that come with life on the road. One such struggle is staying healthy. If this plagues you, here are ways you can live a healthy life while on the road:

Take Advantage of Resources

Today there is little excuse for not doing something. Because technology has made information on most any subject so accessible, if you even have questions or need resources to get things done or live a certain way, the answers to all that plague you lie a tap and and an internet connection away.

This is great because it means that the answer can always be yes. So what if you’re you’re on the road struggling with alcoholism because you’re living the rockstar dream. You can continue to tour and you can receive help as long as you have internet access. Living a healthy life is much easier than it used to be. You just have to know how that you can tap into the right resources and it’s easier than you think.

Don’t Be In A Hurry

You can spend your entire life traveling and on the road and not learn or see a single thing. It’s about frame of mind, attention to detail, and it’s about enjoying where you’re at in the moment. If you want to maintain a healthy life while on the road, learn how to not be in a hurry. Schedule things out so that you have time to make that stop to smell the flowers or hike the grand canyon.

Travel is hard on the body. Long hours in planes and compact cars does something to every aspect of the human body. You feel like crap, you eat like crap, the cycle perpetuates upon itself. If you want to stay healthy while traveling, don’t be in a hurry. Stop to exercise, stop to prepare or buy a healthy meal that focuses on fresh ingredients. Stop and get a massage or a therapy session along the way.

The traveling life is far from convenient, but if you take the steps to keep yourself healthy, you’ll fall even more in love with the lifestyle. First and foremost priority is health. The rest will follow.

Business travel is nothing like vacation travel, and for those of you that have not done much business travel you may do well to know the difference.
