New Year’s Travel Resolutions That Are Perfect For 2022 – TheTravel

New Year, new… well, travel goals, right? Here are some resolutions that you’ll want to add to your fancy new planner for the upcoming 2022 year.

At the beginning of every New Year or the very end of a year, people come up with decisions to do certain things in the New Year. It feels great to make the decisions and compile the New Year resolutions but the work lies in taking action and actually achieving those goals. A good way to improve in life and gain more self-confidence is by achieving the things we have decided to achieve and not just merely writing them down. With that in mind, here are some note-worthy and achievable New Year resolutions to have in mind as the Year 2022 gradually unfolds.

8 Overcome Your Travel Fears

Acrophobia (fear of heights), Autophobia (fear of being alone), and hydrophobia (fear of water) are some of the fears many people carry around. These fears prevent travelers from getting the most from their adventures in life. Decide in the New Year to overcome the fears that cloud your mind. For those afraid of heights, get on a plane and skydive. Those afraid of water should go swimming in deep waters (with lifeguards present of course), and those afraid of being alone should go camping ALONE deep in the woods. The tricky part of fear is that the things we worry about almost never happen, which is why Rudyard Kipling made it clear that “Of all the liars in the world, sometimes the worst are our own fears”.

7 Experience And Learn About A New/Your Culture

The world is endowed with so many rich cultures that travelers should honestly explore. Besides learning about their history and tasting their dishes, many of these cultures have entertaining festivals and unique customs that need to be experienced. From interesting greeting gestures to flattering welcoming ceremonies, many cultures around the world will amaze travelers.

While it feels great to explore other cultures, it is also important to learn about one’s own culture and origin. Many have sadly lost memories of their cultures due to their settlement on distant shores. Keep emotions aside – take action, get out there, do some research, learn about where you come from, listen to music, eat the food, learn the language because, besides the pleasure it offers, culture is a piece of important knowledge to pass down to the next generation. For those seeking to thread this life-changing path, Ancestry is a great service that offers help in making the ultimate discovery.

6 Travel with Family

Family is important; we’ve heard that more than a hundred times from Vin Diesel in the Fast and Furious Franchise but besides hearing this underrated statement from a movie, family is indeed very important and so is traveling together with them. To be truthful, we all know how hard it is to always be together with family because sometimes (or even most times), it’s just so easy and perhaps important to go alone. Nevertheless, occasionally, it is also cool to travel with everybody and watch their faces as they see and experience (for the first time) the places you’ve probably seen a dozen times.

5 Explore More Ancient Structures And Creations Around The World

From the Great Pyramids of Giza to the Acropolis of Athens, and the Roman Colosseum, many historical structures from the ancient world can still be seen today. Many of these historical attractions have been standing for thousands of years so it’s important to see them while they’re still around. Imagine how it would feel to only be able to see and learn about these things from other people’s photos and experiences when there were lots of opportunities to see them in person. Get out there with a camera and explore them for yourself. Besides getting destroyed, some of these attractions might be reconstructed to keep them standing but this often comes at the cost of the original features of the structures. And by the way (with the Pyramids of Giza in mind) not all of these attractions can be reconstructed to resemble the works of the ancient people.

4 Experience A New Travel Lifestyle

It might be hard but there’s no harm in giving a try to a new way of traveling. It might be a great way to discover better alternatives to a particular travel lifestyle. Those who love tenting can try RV camping while those who love hotel comfort can try living like campers. For many, this might turn out to be the next best decision ever. This also extends to transportation preferences and other travel lifestyles. While some can try traveling long distances by road instead of a plane, others can try traveling by train or by sea.

3 Work Less And Travel More

Countries like the UAE are already reducing the time people spend at work so they can have more time to spend with their families and travel if they wish. For the UAE, it sure looks like a New Year’s resolution because the new 4 and a half-day work-week is scheduled to take effect from January 1, 2022. While this is a welcome development, it might take long before such is adopted in many countries of the world therefore the responsibility is on travelers to deliberately design their careers to enable them to work less and travel more. What better time to start planning on this than the beginning of a new year?

2 Write About Your Travel Experiences In A Diary

Nowadays all travelers carry their gadgets anywhere they go except those who want to disconnect from nature and travel back to the Stone Age. While some choose to use these devices to record their experiences by taking pictures and videos, writing is one thing travelers should not totally ignore. They say pictures communicate a thousand words but even these pictures have more meaning when words are attached to them. Some experiences cannot even be captured with a camera. It’s not a good time to take pictures when a bear is on your heel or when getting cornered by some savage humans and it’s during these situations that the good old writing becomes the only way to record the sensational experiences. But besides these examples, more travelers should record their experiences using words. Just a few words a day would do.

1 Fall In Love/Improve Your Love Life

Oh my! What a resolution. First of all, this might not be the priority of many travelers but hey; who knows if that Italian, Brazilian, Filipino, or Indian tour guide you met on a tour website (or even Tinder) might turn out to be the perfect travel buddy and romantic partner as well. Of course, it’s possible and these things do happen just like they happened to Kirsty.

For partners who feel like their relationship or love life is flickering like the flames of a candle in a winter storm, there are lots of romantic destinations to go where the views alone will ignite the spark that will have you both making out like newlyweds in no time.
