Amidst the chaos of a world reshaped by an enduring pandemic, the significance of self care shines brighter than ever. From the serenity of a quiet moment to the rejuvenation found in simple acts, self care isn’t just a luxury but a lifeline.

Join us in exploring the diverse ways self-care can restore balance and resilience in our lives.”


1. Easy Self Care Tips to Nurture Body, Mind, and Soul on the Go

Travel, fundamentally, is a form of self care cherished universally. In March 2020, the world mourned as travel abruptly ceased. The past 16 months have reaffirmed just how mentally, physically, and emotionally beneficial travel is when unrestricted.

Now, as global travelers regain their freedom, many feel anxious and uncertain venturing out again. Whether you’re a fearless travel addict or cautiously stepping out, we all benefit from self care as we resume our journeys.

There are numerous ways to pause, indulge, and take moments for ourselves while traveling. Here are 7 simple self care tips to rejuvenate the body, calm the mind, and nourish the soul on the road.


1.1 Sunset and Sunrise Rituals to Recharge Your Spirit

While our daily routines rarely include time for such moments amidst chaos, holidays offer a perfect opportunity to watch both sunrise and sunset.

Each dawn and dusk paints a unique canvas of colors and beauty, offering a chance to reflect, slow down, and set intentions. Whether with a mocha choca rula at sunrise or a favorite drink at sunset.

Cherish these moments to celebrate the day’s start or peaceful end, and don’t forget to marvel at the nightly spectacle of stars as a reminder to appreciate Mother Nature’s daily cinematic gifts.


1.2 Disconnect to Reconnect

If you’re only going to choose one self care tip, make it this one: disconnect from your digital devices. Whether you’re traveling alone or with loved ones, try to minimize screen time and be fully present.

Put away laptops and phones to disconnect from Wi-Fi and reconnect with yourselves, each other, and your surroundings.

While it’s challenging to completely avoid devices, especially with ongoing commitments, consider making meals device-free times. Although the surroundings and food might be picture-perfect for social media, limit distractions by keeping phones on airplane mode or only using one phone for necessary photos.

Most of our accommodations offer Wi-Fi in guest suites but not in shared areas, encouraging interaction and reminding guests to enjoy the location, food, laughter, and the moment itself.

1.3 Genuine Conversations


Genuine conversations, not just superficial chatter, enrich our travel experiences. Whether meeting Maasai villagers or corporate leaders, from porters to managers, each person’s story is a treasure inspiring and heartfelt.
Take the time to seek out these stories and listen with empathy.

1.4 Embrace Culinary Joy on Your Holiday


Enjoy everything without hesitation: indulge in seconds, savor dessert, and uncork that bottle. It’s vacation time! Remember, calories are on holiday too.

Meals, especially during vacations, are meant to be savored. Take your time, disconnect from devices, and linger over family feasts or solo dining experiences. Slow down, appreciate the flavors, and soak in the surroundings.

If there’s a dish you adore, our chefs are happy to share their recipes so you can recreate the magic and memories once you’re back home.


1.5 Eat breakfast in bed

It’s an indulgence often overlooked at home: the wonderfully decadent breakfast-in-bed.

Hang the ‘do not disturb’ sign, enjoy warm, buttery toast, indulgent chocolate croissants, or a refreshing tropical fruit salad. Relax, rejuvenate, and emerge refreshed and satisfied whenever you’re ready to start your day.

1.6 Step Out comfort zone to try something new

This could be your sole visit to this destination, so embrace new experiences without hesitation. Whether it’s booking a hot air balloon ride, scaling a dune, tasting local delicacies, learning a new skill, or trying out an e-bike, travel is about both luxury and stepping outside your comfort zone.

1.7 Balancing Camera and Memory in Your Adventures

Capture those unforgettable moments with your camera, but don’t forget to etch them into your memory too. Pause from photography to fully embrace and enjoy the scenery, wildlife encounters, and other moments with your own eyes.

Many of us have witnessed tourists at iconic sites snapping quick selfies and moving on without truly appreciating the beauty firsthand.

Avoid experiencing your entire trip through a camera lens alone. Stay present and immerse yourself completely in each moment during your travels.

Final Words:

Travel is more than sights and photos, it’s about embracing moments fully. From decadent breakfasts in bed to disconnecting over meals and embracing new adventures, cherish sunrises, conversations, and local flavors.

Capture memories, but also create them by immersing yourself in each experience. Let your journey weave stories that linger long after you return home.
