Q10: Have you ever put down the camera and traveled without taking any pictures? Why would you recommend (or not recommend) this? #InspireToWander

A10: totally recommend going without anything that connects you to outside world! I did this a few weeks ago, no gps, no cell service m, no camera. It feels great to just detach for a while. #inspiretowander

A10: I don't know if I'd say without ANY photos, but I find that I'm much more purposeful with my photos so that way I can enjoy more & be behind the lens less! #InspireToWander

A10 #inspiretowander For travel in North America, I do that all the time. Going overseas, I make the assumption I won't get back there and I want to bring the memories back with me for that reason. Those are my souvenirs since I usually don't bring back physical things.

replying to @IBBtravel @IBBtravel A10: I don't believe that I have! I'm trying to think of a time. LOL. Maybe pre-blogging days! #InspireToWander

replying to @IBBtravel @IBBtravel A10: Not when traveling as an adult. I want a record of where I've been. Those photos will outlive me. However, I've become more mindful and economical with my shots; I always carry my camera, but I spend more time enjoying the moment. #InspireToWander

a10: used to hardly ever take pictures when traveling and really regretted it! Now I take a lot, but only to a certain point because I like to live in the moment when traveling! #inspiretowander

replying to @IBBtravel @IBBtravel A10. Not really. Drives my husband crazy, but I love capturing the memory. #inspiretowander

replying to @IBBtravel @IBBtravel A10 I would not not take pictures. I have photos back to the ‘album’ days that I dig out and look at. I just wish I spent more time going back and looking at my digital pics. #InspireToWander

replying to @IBBtravel @IBBtravel A10: In some busy touristy spots prone to thieves prowling around to grab and run. #InspireToWander

replying to @IBBtravel @IBBtravel A10: We left the camera at home for Holi as we wanted to really get the proper experience without worrying about the camera getting ruined. For Songkran we took a couple of shots early on and then went out without the camera for the rest of the weekend #InspireToWander

replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO A10. I find it very difficult to do. If I’m on a train with ridiculously dirty windows I’ll sometimes get tired of trying and just watch the world go by. Or read. #InspireToWander

replying to @IBBtravel @IBBtravel A10: I dont think there's ever been a time when I didnt have some type of camera on me, even before the smartphone days! Ive captured a lot of memories through photography and am always taking pictures and video! #InspireToWander

A10: I have not and I probably won't. I want to be able to show my parents and friends back home about my travels. #InspireToWander

A10 Always travel with a camera. Swam with Whale Sharks & didn't have a GoPro. Had an underwater camera but it wasn't the best. All I have is memories. Also saw Prince, his very last concert. No cameras allowed at all. It made me really pay attention. Good thing! #InspireToWander
