Tuesday Travel Tip

Get active!
 

Staying healthy while on vacation can be hard but, sometimes you can find some new and fun adventures too! Plus you can work off all those calories from eating out every night! Try going on a bike tour of the city, or if you're staying in a rural area try going for a hike. You never know, you might end up meeting new people or discovering something you never thought you would find. So just because you're on vacation doesn't mean you cant keep being active!

Tuesday Travel Tip

Trade your camera for a set of paints!

If you are in the habit of taking pictures of your vacation with your iPhone camera and constantly uploading them to social media this tip is for you. Try to get off your phone or tablet for awhile and instead of snapping selfies everywhere you go grab a canvas and easel and paint your way through the town. In my travel review about my trip to Aix en Provence in France I described several places where artists gathered daily to work on their paintings including the flower market, the town square, and the church. You might enjoy working on your artistic skills and you will probably meet other artists. Most importantly you can enjoy the moment without having to worry about uploading pictures to Instagram because you will have your very own painting that will last forever!

Next time you're out and about in a foreign city and you're looking for some fun dinner plans how about trying a local Taco Tuesday deal? You may think taco Tuesday is only for locals but why can't tourists get in on the delicious food and great prices offered at this Mexican food tradition? Plus this is a great way to meet locals and chat about the best sites to see and get the real flavor of the city you're visiting. The best part about this fun deal besides the great prices of course is that you can go alone or with friends! Most taco Tuesdays are casual and everyone is having fun so there's no problem with going alone and meeting people while you're out! Its also a great idea for a cheap dinner out with friends and family! This tradition keeps it casual and fun without compromising on great food. So next time you are looking for a great dinner idea without breaking the bank on you're vacation ask around to find out where the best local spot is!
