The Best Diving Destinations for Macro Life in the Caribbean and Atlantic:⁠
🐠Bonaire⁠
🐠Bay Islands⁠
🐠Dominica⁠
🐠Cayman Islands⁠
🐠St. Lucia⁠
🐠Saba⁠
🐠Mexico⁠
🐠Curaçao⁠
🐠Belize⁠
🐠U.S. Virgin Islands⁠

Reason #2 Why Travel is a Great Form of Self-Care⁠
Get Out of Your Comfort Zone⁠
⁠
Comfort zones are important – they’re where we feel most comfortable, least stressed, and most in control of our lives.⁠
⁠
Many of us automatically associate leaving our comfort zones as a bad thing, but in reality, it’s necessary. Having new experiences in different places heightens our ability to focus, be creative, and respond to changing circumstances, which is crucial for self-care.⁠
⁠
Plus, trying something new can be one of the best ways to appreciate (and not take for granted) what we do in our day-to-day lives.

Best Diving Destinations in the Mediterranean, Pacific, and Indian Ocean⁠
🐠The Philippines⁠
🐠Galápagos Islands⁠
🐠Malaysia⁠
🐠Hawaii⁠
🐠French Polynesia⁠
🐠Palau⁠
🐠Fiji⁠
🐠Thailand⁠
🐠Japan

Reason #1 Why Travel is a Great Form of Self-Care⁠
You Meet New People⁠
⁠
One of my favorite parts of traveling is meeting new people – listening to their stories, learning why they’re in a destination, and sharing in the camaraderie of travel.⁠
⁠
Some of my favorite memories of traveling are conversations, or food tastings, or group tours with people I just met that I’ll never see again. It’s the fleeting nature of these interactions that makes them so meaningful. We have to listen more carefully, remember more thoroughly, and share more fully than in our day-to-day lives.⁠
⁠
Travel helps us be more open and receptive to others, which is crucial for our self-care.

The Best Places To Snorkel in the Caribbean⁠
🐠Molinere Beauséjour Marine Protected Area, Grenada⁠
🐠Hol Chan Marine Reserve, Belize⁠
🐠Anse Chastanet Beach, St Lucia⁠
🐠Doctor’s Cave Beach, Jamaica⁠
🐠Mullet Bay, Sint Maarten⁠
🐠Starfish Point, Grand Cayman⁠
🐠Smith’s Reef, Turks and Caicos⁠
🐠Carlisle Bay Marine Park, Barbados

Reason #4 Why Travel is a Great Form of Self-Care:⁠
Detox From Your Devices⁠
⁠
One of the most satisfying parts of preparing for a trip is setting the “out of office” notification. This declares to ourselves and the world that we’re taking a much-needed break from our work.⁠
⁠
The constant dings, buzzes, and glows of our phones and computers are a necessary part of our lives, but they can be draining. So when you travel, set strict boundaries for yourself, such as:⁠
⁠
-Only checking emails once a day and only replying if it’s absolutely essential⁠
⁠
-Keeping your phone on silent (or airplane mode!) any time you’re on a tour or excursion⁠
⁠
-No posting on social media until after your trip⁠
⁠
You’ll thank yourself for this!

🐠Papua New Guinea⁠

🐠Malaysia⁠
🐠Fiji⁠
🐠Palau⁠
🐠Guam⁠
🐠Australia⁠

🐠Japan

Reason #3 Why Travel is a Great Form of Self-Care⁠:⁠
You Always Learn Something New⁠
⁠
I’ve learned more about myself and the world by traveling than I ever did in a classroom or an office. Travel is the ultimate experiential learning!⁠
⁠
I’ve been traveling part or full-time for more than a decade, and I’m still humbled by how much I learn on every trip, regardless of whether it’s to a new or familiar destination. Gaining knowledge and insight is critical to keeping our minds active and our inquisitive nature alive.
