There is no doubt that Travelling is amazing, but there are a few things that I tackle on a daily basis to be able to travel a lot.⠀

We as travel bloggers are guilty of only talking about how amazing travel is (It really is!) but there are several problems we face on a daily basis that we never talk about.⠀

Let me discuss a few of these today:⠀

Time Management⠀
Money Management⠀
Weather⠀
Homesickness⠀
Health issues⠀

Time - Yesterday, I was talking to someone and he said "you are really lucky because you have all the time in the world". I clarified by saying we both have the same 24hours everyday but I choose to utilise it properly. I have my calendar marked with the things I have to do. That is the first and the last thing I check everyday.⠀


Money - People always ask me "How do you travel for free?" Guys it is never free, there is always some cost involved. A lot of times we don't even get paid. Even if someone is paying there is always a human cost involved. You are an asset so treat yourself like one. I always keep in mind what my opportunity cost is?⠀

Weather- A lot of my plans have been cancelled at the last minute because of the weather conditions. Landslides, road blocks, flight delays are pretty common and lead to major schedule changes.⠀

Homesickness- Mummy - Papa ki dant, pyaar, shararati behan, ghar ka khana and my doggy. Omg ! Who doesn't miss home?⠀

Health- It is really hard to maintain my health because I am very careless when it comes to eating and sleeping on time. I am a vegetarian and when I travel abroad I face a lot of challenges in finding healthy options.⠀

These are just some of the basic things that I deal with on a daily basis as a traveller. ⠀
