Links To Look At, Volume 5

3 min read by  •  Time Visited: July 2018

I’m back with more Links To Look At, which I will be posting every other Tuesday moving forward. Today’s volume features fun road trips in the U.S., in-flight routines of influential people, and ways to boost your travel mentality. I love researching and discovering great travel gear (and will round up major sales such as Amazon Prime Day & the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale), but I also frequently link to recommend products in this series and on Pinterest.  I hope you enjoy!

So hard to imagine).

Boosting Your Travel Mentality

  • What a wonderfully written piece about the purpose of traveling.

I seek people and their knowledge and culture. I look for rejuvenation among the landscape, and truth in the language.”
  • It’s easy to forget to practice self care while traveling. This may re-inspire you!
  • Some travel apps I hadn’t heard were on this list
