Lessons You Should Learn Before Packing Your Bags and Traveling the World

They say some of the best lessons you can learn in a lifetime will come from your experiences while traveling. This is one good reason to motivate yourself and start planning for your next vacation. But before you go, know that you can the most out of your travel if you keep the following things in mind.

You Can Give Back to the Community While Traveling the World

Most travelers go on a vacation to take a break from their crazy life. Who would not want to relax after working most days of the year? Others simply want to explore the different tourist destinations in the world. But rarely do travelers think about volunteering when out on an adventure. Not many even knew that they can pursue their love for travel for free or for a fraction of a cost by giving back to the community.

There are many volunteer programs abroad that allow you to do ethical volunteering while working with different non-profit organizations. You can sign up for social projects that aim to help children kick-start a better life. You can join animal projects and aid in working with animals that are either injured or mistreated.One can even join eco-conservation projects and help in promoting ecotourism and protecting habitats.

The good news is, you can finally travel for a better purpose. Now, you can mix leisure with volunteer work. Who wouldn’t want to spend some of their precious time helping make the world a better place? You can find a cause you are passionate about and coordinate with different organizations to make your dream volunteer travel come true.

Focus on Spending on Things You Love

Some travelers are miserable because they go on trips with a limited budget. They fail to enjoy the things the like doing because they need to stick to a tight travel budget. But if we only learntospend on the things we actually love, then we get to increase our chances of actually enjoying our travels.

Take millennials, for instance. Sure, most of them are still renting, are avid fans of ride-hailing services, and are even usinglaundry and dry-cleaning serviceseven if they can do their washing on their own. They do have massive student debts and many of them are depressed. But one thing we can admire about them is their willingness to forgo worldly treasures just to enjoy experiences. Today’s generation enjoys paying for experiences because it is what truly makes them happy.

Some of us want the best things in life, be it a luxurious cruise, most expensive accommodations, and first-class flights. But young people don’t care much about these for as long as they can enjoy and treasure experiences they can keep for the rest of their life. They may lack in material things. But they make it a point to workhard, sothey can afford to pay for the things they love enjoying the most, including travels.

Find Joy in Simplicity When Packing Your Bag

Most female travelers pack too much stuff while men are content with a few changes of clothes. But if you want to focus on the trip and make things easier for yourself, learn how to pack lightly. Sure, there are things you can’t possibly leave behind if you are going on a trip. But surely you won’t need your whole closet and makeup kit when you’re out exploring the world.

Some are inclined to pack extras “just in case.” But most of the time, this will only add unnecessary load to your already bag full of “essentials.” Choose to leave behind the things you won’t need. Remember that you can most probably buy these things while on the trip.

Stop Excuses from Ruining Your Travel

People make different excuses that ruin their travel. Some say they have no money or time to even go on a vacation. Others say they can’t do an activity because someone will get mad or it won’t look good on their social media. If we only stop making excuses and start taking control of our life, we will learn valuable lessons from different experiences.

Think you can’t enjoy a trip because you lack the funds to travel? Maybe you are intrigued by a local but are afraid to talk to them because you fear you’ll get rejected? You can end up regretting passing a one in a lifetime experience if you let fear and excuses overcome you. Remember that life is short. If you are in the legal age to make decisions for yourself, you should start using this privilege and start learning from your own experiences.

Some people think they can only dream of traveling the world one day. In reality, they are the only ones stopping themselves. If you stop making excuses and focus on the trip instead of what you’ll wear or how good you’ll look in pictures, you will end up having a great time. Find joy in paying for experiences and consider volunteering while you’re out on an adventure.

Why Free Mobile Games are Essential for Travel

Traveling has become essential for us. Some of us travel only for pleasure, but it’s part of our business plans for many of us. A long time ago, on these long trips, you’d be stuck with not much entertainment going on. Your options were to read a good book or enter a conversation with a stranger sitting next to you on a plane or a bus.

Luckily, in the digital age, mobile phones helped us utilize our time with many options to keep us entertained. Some of you would instead prefer watching a movie or your favorite TV show. But many will choose mobile games for their way of dealing with boring long rides to your destinations.

The mobile game industry is our new way of entertainment, and it seems to us that it’s here to stay for quite some time. The best thing about them is that most of them are free-to-play. So you wouldn’t have to invest any money for downloading and playing them. It’s free, and it will keep my attention away from the boredom of traveling? That sounds like a great deal to us.

We’ll talk about what we think about free mobile games, and are they helpful on long trips after all.

They help pass the time!

What is a better pass time option than playing a game that you love? When you play a mobile game that makes you focused only on your mobile device’s display, time will fly past you. You’ll feel like hours were just minutes, and that long miles will become nothing but a small leap forward.

Free games like Slotomania will keep you busy for quite some time because of the great concept of a free slot game you’ll be spinning throughout your trip.

There are really a lot of options!

When we say “a lot” of options, we mean A LOT. There are endless options for you to browse through on the App stores. Many different genres and titles are being updated daily with new content, so finding a free game that you’ll like is just a matter of scrolling.

For example, if you’re all about playing slots in the casinos, you can find games like free Vegas Downtown Slots that will keep you busy and entertained. Others prefer more challenging games, but we like to keep things simple.

They’re especially important if traveling with kids!

If you have kids, you must’ve been in a situation that you are desperate to keep them entertained, so they’ll not disturb you or the other passengers on board the vessel or a plane. Mobile games are the key to keep them still in their seats.

Free games for kids guarantee that your kids will be entertained throughout the whole trip. Just don’t forget to bring along that power bank, and you’re set to go. Some of the free games are even educational, so you can combine learning and fun for even better results.

They cost you nothing!

Free games will not cost you a penny to download, and you can be sure that your money is staying on your saving accounts. Mobile games studios that offer free games make their money by displaying Google ads when you’re playing the game.

It’s the only contribution you’ll have to give, but it will cost you nothing. Some games offer micro-transactions to help you win the game faster, but it’s only an option. You can still play the game for free and just for fun, as explained in this article.

They tend not to take up a lot of space on your phone!

Mobile games are mostly small in size, and they’ll not take a lot of the precious space on your devices internal memory or memory card. You’ll need all that free space for making photos and videos on your trip, so the mobile games are not going to ruin that for you.

The average sizes of the games are just a couple of dozens of megabytes each. But, if you decide to play a serious title, you can find games a couple of gigabytes big. With all those new devices having more than 500 GB of memory, 2-3 GB will not take a lot of space.

Conclusion

The mobile games industry took the largest part of the gaming profits for the past couple of years. So the popularity is not that surprising when we analyze the numbers. They are here to keep us entertained for years to come because of how easy it is to download them and play. Find your favorite game before going away on a trip, and your trip will feel like teleportation in just a few seconds.

London’s Luxuries : Novotel London Bridge

If anyone knows how to glow up a hotel, it’s Novotel. Their dedication to refurbishments of hotels is about on par with our dedication to staying at them. The fresh faced Novotel London Bridge reveals all.

There’s a real trend of larger hotel chains honing in the surroundings of each particular property to make them feel more unique, but still on par with the standards you’d come to expect. In our book, if the honey at breakfast doesn’t come squeezed from the bees on the roof then to be honest we don’t really wanna know.

There are thirteen hotels in the wider London area including some airport locations. That may be unlucky for some, but definitely not for us. The Novotel London Bridge sits in the shadow of the city skyline. Put it this way, if this was the year 1066, you’d be overlooking some very royal neighbours in the tower next door.

Picky millennials like us have a word we like to use to justify when we want to have exactly everything we want… savvy. And savvy travellers are favouring the ‘chain vibes’ of big hotels less and less. Novotel have done away with all of that and now offer up a cool independent like vibe that we are completely here for.

What hasn’t been lost is the efficiency of the whole operation – check-in is quick and painless, and desk staff speak several languages. Quality and standards have a huge part to play in Novotel’s ethos and it shows, which is a true testament to really good hotel, and makes you sleep that little bit better.

There’s a minimalist style running throughout the rooms, with flashes of personality here and there, like faux zebra rugs or starry night sky murals. A signature red cuts through the crisp white, adding to that overall luxe.

Downstairs, the traditional buffet of yoghurt and tinned peaches has been done away with, and in its place is a quirky café style kitchen and bar. So many of the time hotels slip up with their dining offering and take the corporate road, which is enjoyable to only those in suits who chunter over the morning FT, but here it’s definitely more flat-white and a lot less white-collar.

Prices start from £116 per room per night based on two people sharing. www.all.accor.com

Wake up Here : De Vere Beaumont Estate

For obvious reasons, 2020 has seen an increase in staycations like never before. We’ve ditched the boarding passes and the crying babies to see out summer in the UK, dedicated to finding the lushest, most quintessential must-stays in the English countryside.

DeVere Beaumont Estate sits in 44-acres of stunning grounds, manicured lawns and natural ponds. The centrepiece is not one stunning mansion, but two. And a chapel, if that wasn’t enough.

Originally known as Remenham, there has been an estate on this land since way back in the 14th Century. The oldest building is an ivy-clad 18th Century Victorian mansion, which was used as the former school building of Beaumont College for most of its life. In stark contrast is the Georgian White House with its stunning portico, built in 1790.

The rooms are impressive, ranging from the simple Guest Room all the way up to the Junior Suites – which have been decorated to reflect the heritage of the building. Just think huge rustic leather couches and fluffy white robes. Modern geometric bathrooms are done in soft slate greys, with claw-foot bathtubs and walk-in rainfall showers.

There are two eating options: 1705 Restaurant and Bar, and the Beaumont Restaurant. The latter is where you’ll find a locally inspired seasonal menu served throughout the day. Safety rules state that the breakfast buffet is off the cards, but diners are served at-table by the charming restaurant staff who will gear you up for the day. To keep things simple and contact-less as possible, some ordering is done via an iPad at your table, but make sure you ask for recommendations on the wine as the menu is vast and the staff are very knowledgable.

1705 Restaurant and Bar is the estate’s more formal dining option. The menu celebrates the ‘best of British’ ingredients with a flair of international cuisine. Choose from artisan stone-baked pizzas, rotisserie chickens, oriental wok pots, spicy curries – or more classic dishes with a modern edge, like a posh take on a fish finger sandwich. There are other spots around the estate where drinks and nibbles are available. A firm favourite was the Pantry – a secluded coffee lounge with a drinks station for teas, coffees and soft drinks. Some facilities like the pool are currently closed for renovation, but this is only a sign of great things to come.

The Chapel is the jewel in the crown of the estate. It doubles as an events space (the estate, understandably is popular with weddings) with an exquisite stained glass window and huge hand painted vaulted ceiling. The modernisation continues here, with private booths around the outside for quiet drinks and celebrations.

In this year of change, the DeVere group have spared no effort in making their guests feel safe. Not only are all the necessary safety measures in place at their estates, but they have launched new packages which will see 10% of each direct bedroom booking going to NHS Charities Together, which supports NHS staff and volunteers caring for COVID-19 patients.

From £179 per couple, or £229 for families, guests can book an overnight stay with a personally selected chilled drinks package, a delicious two-course takeaway dinner from their in-house chefs, as well as a ‘grab and go’ breakfast.

Wake up Here : Hotel Gotham, Manchester

Ever wandered through Manchester and spotted a yellow cab flying down Deansgate in hot pursuit? Or a hot dog stand in Piccadilly Gardens? Or Marilyn Monroe waltzing down Canal Street? Well, the last one we can probably explain, but there’s always been a strange connection between our beloved Northern neighbour and New York City.

Of course, you can’t compare the two. Manchester is a clear winner for us. But there are significant similarities that make Manchester the perfect UK understudy for Manhattan, and there are numerous film credits to prove it.

Now film sets come and go, but the constant piece of the Big Apple that remains sitting proudly on King Street is the Hotel Gotham. The building could definitely have come fresh from New York, with its wild Art Deco architecture sitting jarringly against its Victorian and Edwardian neighbours.

Everything here is in character, to the freshly dressed doormen, to the room service who slip the hotel’s newspaper, The Gotham Bugle, under your door. There’s even a pair of binoculars in your room you should you wish to try and spot a certain superhero flying around the place at night – just be careful what you use them for…

The traditional art deco interiors are broken up by modern flashes of geometric shapes and hot pink furniture. In the suites, vintage luggage chests double up as coffee tables and are stylishly adorned with thoughtful chunky books.

Hotel wardrobes aren’t usually one of the highlights of a room. A safe, laundry bag, and annoying hookless coat-hangers come as standard but at the Gotham, it’s just another spectacle. Not only is this where you’ll find your plush fluffy white robes, but also a minibar, cocktail station (complete with Martini glasses and Champagne flutes) and personal coffee area.

A mini bar and a cocktail set will have you set for the night. To level up your evening you quite literally need to level up to the top floor of the building where you’ll find one of Manchester’s coolest bars – Club Brass.

If you were wondering about the name, it’s a nod to the building itself (bank) and to what makes the world go round (money). If that doesn’t tell you how luxe this place is you probably don’t deserve a table, which is actually the case for some since the bar is open only to members and guests of the hotel. Think media tycoons, slick entrepreneurs and celeb class football players (Premiership only). Club Brass is linked with London’s Century Club, for more perspective on exclusivity.

Manchester isn’t short of well-known institutions. In fact, they’re world famous. Oasis, The Stone Roses, Northern Soul, The Industrial Revolution, The Haçienda, Coronation Street… Our guess is it won’t be long before the Hotel Gotham makes it up there with the best of them.

Nightly rates from £185 for a Cosy Club double room, or £200 B&B. Book here.

London’s Luxuries : The Resident, Soho

We like to think of hotels as different breeds of animals. They all have different looks and personalities, different attitudes and come in different sizes. Some are old, some are young, and some smell like they’ve not had a wash in years. The best of them however, are constantly growing and evolving. Such example of this is The Resident in Soho.

Picture this. You go to get in bed at night after a bit of a heavy one tearing up Old Compton Street or sampling some fancy cocktail bars. Your phone is literally on 3% and you need to do some Insta-scrolling before bed, but there’s no plug socket next to the beside table and you wonder to yourself, what kind of sick world do we live in? You fall asleep with your phone in your hand, your alarm doesn’t go off and you miss your flight the next day.

Whoever designed the Resident had that very same problem and at some point vowed that no millennial traveller will suffer the same fate. For every problem we face, they have devised a solution, and for us, it’s all about the detail.

The rooms feel luxe without overstepping the mark. Some have even managed to include four-poster beds in the least pretentious way we’ve ever seen, and it just looks really cool. The spaces are practical and are useful for whatever you need.

While there’s no in-hotel dining per se, but the concierge understand your hunger. If one of the many (literally) thousands of Soho restaurants outside your door can’t tempt you, or you’re having a cheeky night in, the hotel will bring up your Deliveroo for you, and you cannot deny there’s no better service than that. Just another solution to one of millennial life’s many many problems.

The Resident is as much business as it is pleasure, and their meeting room spaces are great for when trying to negotiate over a coffee table in Starbucks just don’t cut it. #TeamCoco pride ourselves on having hot young entrepreneurs in our camp, and if you’re anything like us you’ll love this handy little feature.

But work hard, play hard, right? And the absolute pride of the Resident is its location. This place is in stumbling distance (and sometimes we mean this quite literally) of all the nightlife Soho has to offer, and we all know what that means.

Three of the World’s Most Expensive Hotels

When it comes to travelling, there are so many things to love about exploring our world. Visiting new and exciting places opens up experiences and opportunities we could only ever have dreamed of, and it’s fair to say that most of us go back home a very different person to the one we were when we set off.

For a lot of individuals, slumming it is a big part of this but not everyone has to balance their budget to the same degree. In fact, some lucky travelers are able to enjoy a level of luxury the rest of us can barely imagine.

If you want an insight into where they might stay, here are three of the world’s most expensive hotels for you to drool over.

The Grand Penthouse at The Mark, New York

Covering two whole floors of this exclusive hotel, The Mark’s Grand Penthouse was designed by Jacques Grange, and affords its guests the most fantastic views across the Upper East Side. Sleek and modern, the sprawling suite gives you 12,000 square feet of decadent living to enjoy, but it doesn’t come cheap. Priced at a whopping $100,000 per night, it might take a lottery win to get you there, so perhaps you ought to play Powerball onlinebefore you organize your itinerary, as that extra £373 million would undoubtedly come in handy. It’s not just space you’re buying. As well as its five bedrooms, six bathrooms, library, ballroom, and rooftop terrace, those who stay the night also have their very own chef to prepare their meals, Frederic Fekkai to tame their tresses, and Bergdorf Goodman to offer on-tap tailoring whenever they need it.

The Royal Penthouse at the Hotel President Wilson, Geneva

Should you have bucket loads of cash and a penchant for European travel, then perhaps the Royal Penthouse at the Hotel President Wilson would be more to your taste. Reported to have played host to everyone from Rihanna to Bill Gates, Bill Clinton, and Michael Jackson, this suite comes fully outfitted with bullet-proof glass to protect you and panoramic views of Lake Geneva to soothe and succor your soul. Complete with twelve bedrooms, a host of opulent marble bathrooms, a billiard room, gym, Jacuzzi, and more, it takes up the entire eighth floor, and the price reflects this.

The Ty Warner Penthouse at the Four Seasons Hotel, New York

New York also features a second time on this list, thanks to its Ty Warner Penthouse. Located at the Four Seasons Hotel, this luxurious pad sits 700 feet above the ground, and offers the amazing views you’d expect. Decadently styled and sumptuous, it comes with floor-to-ceiling windows and sprawling glass balconies, so you can make the most of the city’s skyline. Although the suite has just one bedroom, it is most definitely the stuff of dreams, with Japanese silk furnishings, rock crystal sinks, and an interior picked out by IM Pei and Peter Marino. Unfortunately, but nonetheless expectedly, it doesn’t come cheap, with an overnight stay likely to set you back $60,000.

Tell us, if money were no object, which of these suites would you be sleeping in?

Relax at the Algarve’s hottest beach club

With the Portuguese travel corridor currently open I decided to squeeze in a dose of vitamin sea and take a few days out to unwind in the Algarve. Just a two-and-a-half-hour flight away and sunshine guaranteed right up until November, makes it the perfect place to escape and relax. Within 24 hours of Portugal going back on the ‘safe list’, my hotel pool was quickly filling up with families also looking to take advantage of not having to quarantine so I decided to escape all the chaos and booked myself into Purobeach, Vilamoura.

With eight beach clubs around the world, this global lifestyle brand is fast becoming the ‘go-to’ if you are looking for luxurious beachside socialising. These iconic beach clubs successfully combine al fresco dining, poolside partying and beach glamour. Set in the vibrant Vilamoura marina amongst the million-pound yachts, bustling restaurants and bars is their chic, super luxe Portuguese club.

Purobeach, Vilamoura offers two distinct areas, the garden and beachfront, both with a different vibe. The garden is an oasis of lush greenery, with the swimming pool taking centre stage. Crisp, white Balinese beds and loungers flank the azure pool, a DJ plays chilled tunes while the super friendly staff serve drinks and attend to your every need. I opted to spend the day on the beachfront which offers the same sophisticated ambiance as the garden but with a livelier atmosphere. The music is a notch louder and the DJ pumps out the kind of music that makes you want to get up off your lounger and dance. All the big comfy beds come with fluffy towels and face out to the Atlantic Ocean making it the perfect spot to soak up the sun. Staff flit across the beach serving drinks and checking in on the guests throughout the day.

Food is served in both areas. I chose to eat lunch on the beachfront. You can sit inside or out, both spots have amazing views of the sun kissed sand and cobalt ocean. The restaurant is light and airy with a buzzy vibe, small groups begin to gather around tables, sharing plates and chatting above the music. The menu successfully fuses international flavours alongside local Portuguese produce and influences. Fresh seafood, tasty salads and poke bowls sit alongside burgers, meat dishes and snacks, providing lots of culinary choice as well as vegan, vegeterian, gluten-free and lactose-free options. There’s an extensive drinks menu which also includes healthy juices and smoothies for those who don’t fancy a glass of the renowned Vinho Verde. I declined on the juice and tried a glass of famous crisp, lively Portuguese white which paired perfectly with my grilled sea bream. Served with baked new potatoes and a selection of vegetables and salad, the portion sizes are generous and you certainly leave the table satisfied. For those just wanting to visit the restaurant you can book a table direct. To celebrate the club’s 10th Anniversary they are currently offering a Seaside breakfast up until 12pm everyday until the end of August for 25 euros per person.

After a leisurely lunch I retreat back to my comfortable bed to read my book and people watch. By mid-afternoon the drinks are flowing, and people are socialising at the edge of the Ocean. As the afternoon crawls into the balmy evening the temperature is still in the mid-twenties. The beach is thinning out as people head back to their hotels, here at Puro things are still underway as the cool crowd carry on mingling and soaking up the last of the rays.

Three Staycation Ideas that Won’t Make It Feel Like a Staycation

Did you have to cancel the ultimate vacation because of the coronavirus pandemic? You’re not alone. Many people had to put their vacation plans on hold because of lockdowns and travel restrictions. Adding to the anxiety, travel industry experts forecast that it won’t be till at least next year before traveling goes back to a semblance of normalcy.

You might as well enjoy some of your vacation time by going on an ever-popular staycation. Take a 3-day weekend or a whole week off if you can spare it. We all deserve a much-needed break. Here we’ve got a few out-of-the-ordinary staycation ideas that will make you feel like you still went on the vacation of a lifetime.

So let your hair down, ditch your custom-branded workwear for now, pour yourself a glass of wine, and be prepared to have some fun!

  1. Do Nothing

Alright, so that might be the complete opposite of “having fun,” but hear us out. What’s the first thing you do on a regular weekend? We’re guessing you do household chores that you had to forego during the workweek. Even though most of us are working from home and have been doing chores in between working and possibly parenting, they still tend to pile up and might seem never-ending.

We propose that on the first one or two days of your staycation, you should do nothing. Forget the laundry. Forget the cooking and the cleaning. Order take-out. Binge-watch a Netflix show. Lounge in your bed or your couch all day if you want. Do anything besides what you would typically do. There’s a subtle are to being lazy, and the first couple of days of a staycation is the perfect chance to practice it.

  1. Enjoy a Culture Day.

The Korean Wave is still riding high and fast. And we won’t judge you for using your veg out days to binge-watch a Korean drama or two. Why not try to recreate what you’ve watched in your home? If your original travel plans included international travel, you could do this for your country of destination too.

Decorate your home in that country’s flag. Print out photos of their scenery and landscape and frame them temporarily. Line up some movies, TV shows, or music from that country that you can enjoy. But most of all, get their food. Take it a step further and try to make it yourself. This way, it would feel like you’ve been transported to another world, yet you never even left home.

  1. Do Volunteer Work.

Make your staycation count by taking some time to give back to your community. If you have kids, this is the perfect opportunity to teach them the values of compassion and kindness. Shelters, both for people and for animals, are always in need of volunteers, so they are usually the first place you can start with. If you’re a good cook, offer to bring a dish to a soup kitchen or volunteer to give out food. By doing something altruistic, you’re not only able to take a break from work but also feed your soul.

Spa days and camping out in your backyard are always fun staycation ideas, but these three activities will make it feel more like a vacation, less of a simple break from work.
