How to deal with travel itch when you can´t travel

Updated: Feb 5, 2023

Travelling is by far the best we can do with our time and money, at least according to me. But sometimes we have lack of one or another asset, or something like a global pandemic pay us a visit.

But what to do with the itching desire to pack your back and leave? What to do when one wants to travel so badly, but currently cannot?

Here are some tips, that might help you to get through it, before you are able to fly.

Watch travel documentaries or Youtube travel videos

We do not want to support you in a day after day in front of your TVs or computers, but sometimes can be interesting to watch some documentary about the country you wanna travel to or traveller suggestions about some specific places that are worth travelling to. You can get to know the country or city before you even get there.
