Where to Travel in 2020 for Outdoor Lovers

See this content in the original post

One of the biggest mistakes I’ve made in the past is putting what matters most to me, including travel, on the bottom of my to-do list. 

“Let me just finish this work, and then I can reward myself…”

But work never ends, does it? 

Even when we love what we do, we need to create space for, and PRIORITIZE, personal fulfillment and ways to recharge. 

This year, while planning out my goals, travel was the first thing I blocked out time for. And the happy anticipation of these trips feels great!

But I’m in trouble because I just attended Destinations: The Holiday and Travel Show in London, and now my travel list is twice as long!

Listen to the Where to Travel in 2020 episode of the Postcard Academy podcast to hear where you should head this year if you love nature and aren’t so big into crowds.
