How to stay in shape when you travel a lot:

Needless to say, being a globetrotter doesn’t mean having a well-ordered life, sleeping every night in 5-star hotels with a glass of rosé and petits fours served on a platter. Between irregular pace, sometimes catastrophic weather and long journeys, you don’t want to lose your best travelling friend… your body! These 4 simple and effective tips will help you stay in shape so you don’t miss a thing on your travels.

A good night’s sleep

We sometimes think we can survive without sleep, but that’s not true (do you groundhogs recognize yourselves?). Of course, you’re not traveling to spend your time sleeping, and it can be frustrating to think you’re asleep when you could be hiking. But don’t neglect this very important point for your body. If you’re more of a morning person, there’s nothing to stop you taking a nap (yes, the jealous will say you’re old) or simply alternating between longer and shorter days. It’s important to listen to your body, which will be your best friend on all your adventures!

Playing sports!

Of course, if you walk 50 kilometers every day, we’re not telling you to jog every morning! Do something that soothes you and relaxes your body and muscles. For example, 10 minutes of yoga and stretching every morning will wake you up gently and put you in a good mood for the day. It’s easy, fast and effective!

(Try to) eat well

It’s all in the title… it’s not always easy when traveling to avoid the temptation of a sandwich or fast food. And of course, once in a while doesn’t hurt! However, there are a few ways to avoid putting on 10 kilos or spending all your money on restaurants. The easiest way is to make your own meal. That way, you can be sure of eating a good, well-prepared meal (you still need to know how to cook) and save money. If this isn’t possible, opt for typical local dishes, which can be bought as takeaways from city food trucks. It’s simple, fast, less expensive and often very tasty.
