#LifeGoals

I am not a fan of the popular term, “bucket list,” referring to the things we want to do, see or otherwise experience before we “kick the bucket” (i.e. die). It’s kind of morbid, isn’t it? Can’t we just aspire/dream/wish for these experiences?  Can’t we call them something else? Life Goals? You get my point.

We all have places in the world we hope to experience while we’re here on this Earth. You can probably rattle off your top ten without pause. I know I can. Being a travel agent has encouraged me to follow a lot of resorts and travel photographers on Instagram and I have learned two important things: 

1. Now there are many more places I want to visit. Most of them I can’t pronounce, many of them I never heard of. Then there are places I had little interest in visiting because I had my own impressions and visions of what they were like. Now that I see every day how beautiful the world is, I’m overwhelmed to say the least. 
2. When I do have a trip planned, I follow different property, restaurant, and area Instagram pages ahead of time. This not only psychs me up for what’s to come, but it helps me learn a lot about the area beforehand in a very passive, simple way. 

I learn from you as well. Sometimes I plan trips to places where I never had the desire to go, and after finding the fabulous hotel and researching all there is to do and see there, I’m hooked! Vancouver? Sign me up. Montreal at Christmas? Packing my sled. Italy by bike? YES. 

There are so many types of trips you might never have considered because you didn’t know they existed. Travel agents can help you uncover these adventures by car, train, boat, hike or bike. Get inspired! Whether it’s via social media, the internet, or television, explore the possibilities. Celebrate LIFE on this beautiful Earth and figure out how to see more of it!
