replying to @ActivatedAdven1 @ActivatedAdven1 A1) I'm a #diving fanatic, so whenever I can, I'm in the water somewhere in the world. and when the diving is done, it's a #relaxing and #recovering time on the #boat or at the #beach. #TRLT #beachlife #sunny #holidays

A1. No effort needed. For me the travelling, walking, hiking, trekking, train travel on itself is relaxing. Travel is to me what yoga or mindfullness is to others π

A1. I like to 'slow travel', staying in one place up to a month. This gives me time to settle into a routine, and allows me to bring some hobbies along. Pictured are my colored pencils and a beer on the Vltava River in Prague. #trlt #TravelTuesday

replying to @Touchse @Touchse @marcellinho_nl A1: Do a lot of upfront research, so you have a virtual idea of your surroundings, relative distance and mode of transportation. Lesser the stress, more relaxed and balanced is your travel #TRLT
