There's no doubt that travel certainly does broaden the mind, but sometimes the excitement of travel plans can cause the mind to forget some of the essentials that need to be purchased and packed!
I know you, dear wandering educators. I know you’re always on the lookout for bookshops while you travel (because, well, BOOKS).
Find the perfect piece of art, take a hands-on class, and enjoy great food along the Rural Routes to Main Street Cultural Trail, just west of Indianapolis.
Eleven months ago, my family sold everything and left the US to travel the world, with no plan to return. Since then, we’ve visited ten countries on three continents, walked hundreds of kilometers through countrysides and cities alike, taken countless trains and planes, met amazing people, and made lifelong family memories.
Traveling is a wonderful adventure. But it involves spending, of course - and if it’s not well managed, overspending may occur, which is stressful and makes your travel experience much less fun. Creating a budget manually is time consuming and a daunting task for most travelers, whether they are on a budget or not.
Scotland is a land of mystery, history, and the great outdoors. It’s a perfect place for family travel – your kids will LOVE everything about Scotland! From looking for unexplained wave patterns to trying haggis, Scotland is full of hidden and obvious joys. It’s also a place for all ages, where activities can be enjoyed by all.
The magic of Scotland lies in its hills – and people. In finding one of the places we’ll stay in Scotland, I searched long and hard on HomeAway Holiday Rentals. I found the perfect place in Western Scotland, in Glencoe, called Glencoe Cottages.
Even the words European Christmas markets bring a smile to my face, and a head full of travel plans. I get dreamy, thinking of wandering the paths between rows of booths twinkling with lights, a mug of steaming hot yumminess in my hands, surrounded by the fresh scent of pine and roasted chestnuts, and the crisp night air nipping at my cheeks.
While I was studying abroad, getting to class was just part of my day to day activities in order to be in class. But, looking back, getting to class was part of the adventure as well. You don’t consider the small details until you reflect on your time abroad. Although it took me almost an hour to get to class, I had come to really enjoy my commute because I was able to exercise, spend time outside, and meet new people. So don’t fret if you end up living in a different area of London! It's doable, and a very interesting journey.
