Water sports aren’t only for athletes just because they are the sport, that’s for sure. Whether you are an ordinary guy without any single heroic story in life or even a young successful entrepreneur lady, you may will need these types of water sports because of their ease, simplicity and pretty much things that won’t put you in a sorrow for have been paying too much for a holiday.

Here I am suggesting you about the water sports for some simple reasons that don’t even allowing me to think much about them. It is because they are healthy, fun, easy to access, and so much affordable for a travel idea, a day of breaks from the office or simply just 1 hour and a half getaway from your routine. Here they are.

1. Swimming and snorkeling

You may are thinking that why not included the diving activity in the list. It is simple, it can be so expensive. That’s it! Far different with swimming and snorkeling, although you may will need the money to spend, it can only be for the snorkeling glasses and that won’t really break your bank.

So, remember this! If you are going to the beach one day, never forget to get a water glasses so you will not only swimming but can also be experiencing the beauty under the surface.

2. Fishing

The interesting thing about fishing is that you can started it out by only having the hooks, the fishing lines and the baits. In some cases, sometimes you don’t need a bait at all. As one of the popular water sport activities, fishing is also vary. I mean, you can sit on a chair at the bridge or standing up at the beach while start getting the fishes or you can also combining it with the spearfishing activity that can allowing you to use the water glasses to the next level.

3. Surfing

Riding the waves! What a beautiful scene it is if you can really experience this. As the basic, surfing will requiring you to know swimming, balancing your body on the surfboard, and how you are controlling yourself while the waves break on your board.

It is fun, healthy, an additional activity you can do at the beach and I think there are many affordable surfboards out there that making us won’t be sorry for taking the wallet out.

4. Rowing

Fishing is possible to involved in the rowing activity. But if you are going to focusing on doing rowing alone, then you have some things you have to choose. There are some water sports that are also make rowing as their main things to do such as kayaking, canoeing, rafting, etc. Feel free which one actually you would like to rent.

Anyway, kayak or a canoe may not as the cheap water sport’s item to get. So that, I am suggesting you to experience the same thing through travel package that many operators are providing. You don’t have to buy all the water sport items just because they are helping you improving your health or getting more fun.

Do you ever think of the expectation and reality of traveling in Paris? Well, what is your main resolution if suddenly a tycoon gives you a vacation ticket to Paris, France? Yup, you can guess the first thing you will do is visit the Eiffel Tower. The rest, you will spend time traveling around the most romantic city in the world.

However, sometimes the desire is not always in line and reality exists. His name is also a tourist place, not you alone who wish to visit Paris. Hundreds of thousands, even millions of people can be at your destination.

Well, here are seven expectations vs. reality traveling to Paris that aren’t forever romantic.

Picnic expectations at the Eiffel Tower

Intend to picnic at the Eiffel Tower? It seems like the romanticism of looking at the Eiffel tower with a stretch of green grass is only in the film. The icon of Paris is visited by hundreds of thousands of tourists every day.

Taking a photo of OOTD with a Notre Dame background

It seems that if you want to get a nice photo at Notre Dame, you have to stay by putting up a tent in the yard. Let alone OOTD, for selfie it’s difficult if tourist visits are very crowded.

The Laure museum

Grammar-style photos holding the end of the pyramid the front door of The Laure Museum is the dream of everyone visiting Paris. But never mind, forget it! Unless you are good at Photoshop, move the crowd to photos of reality.

Occasionally getting a picture of Mona Lisa

Do you want to take a picture of the Mona Lisa with your own camera? Stop that intention if you can’t patiently persist. Just take it on Google and take a picture of Leonardo da Vinci’s paintings. That is the easiest way.

Having or taking a romantic photo on the side of the Seine River

Let it be like in a romantic movie, photos with the background of the Seine River with white doves give an interesting impression. But you have to be heartened. People who hang out on the main river that divides France can reach thousands of people.

Still insisting on getting your own little photo without a crowd? Again, it’s recommended that you learn Photoshop.

To look like a French student, taking pictures by sitting on the grass of The Pont Des Arts is a real dream

If you have that dream and you want the dream to come true, then, come to Paris when the season everyone suddenly falls asleep all day. It’s just the only way. Because actually, this place is always full of people so it may be very difficult to get this dream.

Having or getting some photos in the middle of the Paris city building will be aesthetic

If you are able to get rid of this crowd, you can try the intention of your photo. But if not, you better enjoy shopping along this Montmartre road.

The condition of tourist attractions is indeed unpredictable. It could be that your expectations before leaving will be very different after arriving in the destination country. If you don’t want to be disappointed, you should not just get cool photos, but enjoy every trip you go through.

So, be smart with the expectation and reality of traveling in Paris!

 

The beach life in Bali gradually turn into a lively night scene as the sun sets on the horizon. Being on of the biggest international coastal destination in Indonesia, Bali never runs out of after dark entertainments. The streets in Seminyak, Kuta, and Canggu are lined up with more bars, pubs, and clubs than you could counts. If you’ve never taste the nightclubs, take a peek to this Bali Indonesia nightlife that we covered.

Most Bars and Clubs is Free-Entry

What we like from Bali Indonesia Nightlife, aside from the plentiful options to choose from, is their free entry policies. Even iconic nightclub in the upscale Petingeget like Sea Vu Play, Motel Mexicola, and La Favela don’t require admission fee—which make them perfect for bar hopping as they stands in fairly close proximity.

When It’s Charged, You Got Free Drink

Some older nightclub in downtown Legian do charge you some amount of admission fees that could get you a drink form the house. For someone that don’t really take cocktails seriously, these drinks probably taste kinda nice. But for someone who knows their drinks, they could come rather dodgy. Because you never really know what they put in there—probably cheap arak for the base—but again, you’ll never know.

Seminyak is More Upscale than Kuta and Canggu

It’s a common secret that bars and nightclub establishments in Seminyak tends to be more upscale  than the clubs in downtown Legian or Canggu. Though most bars embrace relaxed style, some famous Bali Indonesia Nightclub in Seminyak like the Potato Head, the Plantation Grill, Mirror, and Ku De Ta enforce casual smart attire and won’t allow singlets and flip flops to enter the area. Same things apply in famous establishment in Kuta like the Sky Garden and Vi Ai Pl (which stands literally next to each other). On other clubs like the Bounty or Paddy’s, you can practically walk in with only bikinis on and would still get accepted!

You Can Find Dedicated Bali Indonesia Nightlife Clubs to the LGBTQ Community

Being in Indonesia with largely religious community, you might be shocked to find that Bali Indonesia nightlife is more accepting to “all spectrum of the rainbows” than the rest of the country. Seminyak, aside of being all posh and sophisticated, is also known as the pioneer region to have gay bars open on the area. Amongst the iconic one are Bali Joe and Maxwell, which stands literally next to another in Jalan Cemplung Tanduk, and Sea Vu Play in Petingenget area.

Travelling solo may bring up anxiety within yourself from being alone in foreign place. However, it doesn’t mean travelling with companions will make yourself free from potential stress and hassle. Travel companions are varied from romantic partner, friends, families, spouse, etc. Travel with companions can also lead to some level of stress. You see, you think of yourself when you travel solo. You only need to expect things for your own good. Meanwhile, travelling with companions means there are more than one need and expectation. You and your companions must have different needs, preference and style no matter how similar you think you are with them.

Reducing travel stress caused by travel companions

Travelling with companions sound really fun because you can share happiness and joy with people you like in your life. There must lots of moments you can save in your memory for a very long time.  However, it is not all rainbow and sunshine. It may be easier if you travel with one companion. However, the case will be much different when your travel companions are in group. This can cause some travel stress before and during the trip. Here are some tips to manage it:

• Plan everything ahead of time. Make sure to make the plan long before the D-day so that you can plan everything thoroughly without a rush. This way, every one of your group will be able to think rationally. You need to ask everyone in the group of what kind of vacation they really want. Even if your companions are teens or kids, do not skip them. Let them give their own opinions and ideas.
• If you are going to travel in group, making decision will be much harder. If this happens, you can just take votes. Or, you can firstly vote for a leader. So that he or she will be appointed to make final decision if it is too hard to take together. It is important to respect everyone. Do not patronize anyone even if you feel like you know the best.
• To avoid confrontation and unnecessary fights, be willing to compromise when necessary. Compromise will be more needed during the trip because no matter how well you planned, sometimes things don’t go accordingly. If it is hard to make win-win solution, you can just split up at times. This is another way of compromise.
• If the conflict happens and seems to be inevitable during your trip, try to think logically and don’t take everything into your hearts. During travel, it is easily to get worked up and end up being too stress to think straight. Instead of raising voice and throwing hurtful words to each other, try to find out the cause of the conflict.
• Try to make the most of the trip together because sometime travelling with companions is not about the destination but about the moments you can share together. Those are more memorable and unforgettable not because of the attraction but because of who you are with at that time.

 

One of the worst thing when you are out enjoying the tropical sun in Bali is missing your favourite sport show. Maybe the TV in your villa doesn’t provide international cable. Maybe your hotel simply don’t put enough importance to sport shows. Maybe your family (or traveling companions) are not invested enough to watch the sports with you—and they tend to occupy the TV to themselves. All in sudden, heading to stadium bar Bali comes as the best option; you get to see the sports event in big screens, you get  to drink icy cold beers and tasty snacks, and you get to meet likeminded crowds to cheer together. You only need to check on what’s playing and hit the stadium bar, and joining in the huzzah as your favourite team plays. Lucky you, Bali have some of the best stadium bar to try on, and here’s some simple guides to help you enjoying your time to the most in any stadium bar Bali you are in.

Pick A Strategic Seat

This is the basic. You want to have a seat where you can see the TV (or projector screen) clearly, hear the sounds of the game clearly, and overall get clear idea of what’s going on the game. Pick a seat that’s not too far from the screens, and not too close. You don’t want to break your neck just for looking up to the screen for the whole two hours. 

Get In Front Rows

Similarly, you would want an unblocked view to the screens. Big match tends to filled up rather quickly, so do your best to come as early as possible—especially on popular games such as World Cup football, Premiere League, Formula One, and Motor GP. Coming 30 minutes before the game would be perfect to secure your ideal seat before your preferred stadium bar Bali get loaded with crowds.

Stalk Their Social Media

It never hurts to stalk the venue before going in, especially if you have listed all stadium bar Bali you want to visit. Take a peek at what kind of sport they are playing in tonight, what does the bar look like, or maybe what promotion they are offering at the moment, if there’s any.

Order Beers and Light Meals

Though you can always order “classier” drinks like wine, bourbon, or sip some gin, nothing can beat cold beers to accompany the rush of adrenalines from watching games. Pair it up with platters, fritters, or simple fries. You want something easy to much while your eyes are busy on the screen. Big meals need more hands and eye coordination and a lot more focus—save it for the end of the game. 

There’s various travel experience you can always create in many places. There is no limit to hold you back from what your passion lies. Even if you are not the type of adventurous traveler, trying adventure experience that is quite rare can be a good thing. Besides, there’s a lot of places you can venture to. At least, you need to try something new one in your lifetime for your travel experience. That will make good memory for you to remember.

Worthy rare travel experiences

For those who like challenging their adrenaline level, going for adventure is common thing to do. However, it might be different from those who like vanilla vacation when most activities rely the most on leisure days and slow pace. Thus, why not challenge yourself to try something rare for your travel experience at least once in your lifetime. Here are some of the examples that can draw your interest:

• Trekking to Machu Picchu in Nepal is like a one of a kind experience you need to try. Machu Picchu itself is one of travel destinations included into many traveler’s bucket list. When it is added with trekking, it makes it more special. Of course, you can always take a train but then it would be just ordinary travel. Venturing the city will be much more satisfying because you will find lots of interesting things along the way. You can hit Inca trail or challenge yourself to hike via ruins of Choquequiaro. Besides, trekking to Inca Trail need permission so not everyone can do it.
• Celestial sightseeing in NamibRand, Namibia. What makes stargazing at this place special is because it is a remote, clear, dark place to truly enjoy the stars. For your information, NamibRand Nature Reserve is already gold-certified Dark Sky Reserve, which is not many can get this kind of certification. The sky is also cloudless dark which makes it easier to really see the stars even with naked eyes. Aside from venturing this place at night for stargazing, you can also experience travel adventure during the day through the wild dunes, mountain, etc.
• Visit a tribe in the Amazon is not something you can do in daily basis. Aside from the wilderness of the infamous Amazon, not all the tribe would welcome visitor. Thus, visiting to one of the tribes living in Amazon should be done sensitively and responsibly. However, it is worth to try staying at one of the lodges and interacting with the tribes. You will learn many things especially endangered traditions.
• Next rare experience you should try once in your lifetime is descending into the belly of the Earth in Iceland. The place is singular and quite strange in some sense. To experience this rare kind of travel, you will be clipped on to a lift and lowered 120m into the Earth’s belly. You will see magma chamber, colorful caverns, and other unusual things you would see during regular travel. This tour is not available every day because it’s only announced on a year-by-year-basis for safety reasons.

Are you in love with diving and want to try once or even get your own scuba dive certificate someday? If you do, then you hopefully you can realized that dream sooner. And I want to reminds you that ever since everything have their own prices, diving is also need you to prepare yourself even right before getting your own dive course.

Diving is challenging. Sure it is. But you must have been known too that you should deal with how you can control the anxiety as it is the case for most of the beginners scuba divers when training. Not to mention that you should also ensure that your body is fits all the time.

And as I am actually supporting your dream to be a diver or even a dive master one day, I am going to show you some exercises you can do before you start your own dive course.

1. Jogging/Running and Swimming. You may won’t expected that I am going to say that, will you? Jogging and running has been proven to help us for breathing while the swimming itself is the main thing you must do while diving. Do these exercises regularly so later you can use the oxygen underwater properly and to help you focus on doing things in the water.
2. Train your legs! Another one simple things you can do before starting your dive course is that to give exercises for your legs. Swimming may seem to be simple but when you are diving under, your foot will be working more than before. Not to mention that the dive spots are also get a challenging stream that you should take care of yourself. So that, you may want to make your legs to be not getting tired too fast. You can even do this while watching tv or something. The important of doing this exercise is because you will use the fins and it will be heavy and quiet challenging for the beginners.
3. Start with a snorkeling! First swimming and then snorkeling? You are not thinking that I am giving you an amateur tips, are you? To me, there are 2 stages right before you are diving you have to passed away. Both are swimming and the last two is the snorkeling. It is so making any sense since diving is combining those 2 things. So, snorkeling will encourages you to getting used to the tools you will have to use in diving as well as to measure how good you are in it.

Diving is a great thing, but so does your safety. So that, do all steps one by one. Therefore, you need to slow a bit down no matter how excited you are about scuba diving because you are just a beginner. So, know your place. Start with a simple exercise and try to make a schedule for all so you can be discipline in training yourself right before the course and the dive.
