ℂovent Garden, UK 🇬🇧 ......... (📸 @thetripletsss) in London showing off their unique take on travel and fashion as #identicaltriplets! . I love how despite building a brand that’s based on their similarities, the quirky individual personalities of Elnaz, Golnaz and Tanaz still shine through their photos 👩🏻👩🏻👩🏻 #sisterlove #threescompany • . . . .

#WTDRweekly Travel Deal: Toronto, Canada 🇨🇦 ......... So I’ve been trying to set a regular day for posting #WDTRweekly flight deals (IG analytics feedback suggests Tuesdays/Wednesdays posts work best) but I had a good feeling about this particular direct fare to #toronto and stuck it out.

Ꮗorld Tourism Day 2018 🗾 .......... Wishing all the #WTDRtribe, both old and those newly joining me this year, an exuberance of untamed #worldexploration and #friendlyskies on 🌍 World Tourism Day! 🌏 ......... (📸 @michutravel) ......... ⇣ Comment w/ your next #viewfromabove location⇣ . Mine will hopefully be of the sunny Miami skyline in November whoop whoop!! • . . .
ℱor the Culture ✊🏽✊🏻✊🏿✊🏾 ......... (📸 @keiabeia___) ......... I’ve just got back from a quick whirlwind trip to Austria 🇦🇹 (staying in the Austrian Alps was beyond serene - I’d highly recommend!) and whilst wifi-chasing at a local @starbucks in #salzburg 😂🤳🏾, I happened to strike up small talk with an American couple sat opposite me. . Dressed ostensibly in traditional Bavarian Lederhosen and a gingham Drindl dress, the couple excitedly shared their plans to visit Munich and partake in the world largest beer festival, @oktoberfest 🍺🍻🍺🍻. The world renowned festival attracts in excess of 6 million international visitors a year to Munich and Bavaria; the vast majority of whom love the opportunity to dress up as Bavarian milkmen and maids for a fortnight of rowdy beer tents, parades and artisanal markets. . This exchange got me thinking about how the everyday traveller observes culture in different destinations 🗺. . What do you think of dressing in traditional wear such as #kimonos, #saris #kilts #tracht #maasaibeads #keffiyeh etc when abroad 👘👘? Is it inappropriate? Why are some types of cultural wear seemingly out of bounds whilst others are okay’d? ❌ #CulturalAppreciation vs 😍#CulturalAppropriation, where is the line drawn? . I’d love to hear your thoughts! ⬇️ • . . .
#WTDRweekly Travel Deal: Havana, Cuba 🇨🇺 .......... 🎶 ‘Havana oh nah nah Half of my heart is in.... 🎶 Stop? Okay.

ЅTORYTIME: Saving for a rainy day ☔️ ☔️ 🌧 .......... Your mum told you to. Her mum told her to. As did her mum before and so forth; in fact the popular idiom was reportedly coined wayyy back in the 16th century by farm labourers who, quite literally, would save 💸💰 for days when heavy rains meant they’d be unable to toil the land and earn capital! .......... So why am I randomly telling you about 16th century farmers and their spending habits? . Well the past weekend has to be one of the most stressful of my existence. Not only have I been in the middle of moving houses 🏡 (arguably ranked one of the most stressful life events on the Social Readjustment Rating Scale) but through some obscure clerical error, I have not been paid 🙂 That’s right. After putting in a serious amount of hours at work this month, my bank account is currently missing a glaring amount of zeros 🙂🙃🙂🙃 . My first thought: shouldn’t be a problem, I’ll just transfer money from my savings account to tide me over until I speak with an administrator. . My second thought: ... haven’t I just locked my savings away in a bank term deposit (after dipping into them a little too often because I just HAD to have 👠👗🍾✈️), meaning no access to said savings without 31 days prior written notice? . My third thought: 😭😭😭🤬😭😭😭🤬😭😭😭 . Luckily I have AMAZING friends and family who came through in the clutch and helped a sister raise capital (LOVE YOU GUYS!!! 😘) but the moral of the story? Please keep on saving for that rainy day: just make sure that ish is ACCESSIBLE 😂 • . . . .
Łaberint d’Horta, Barcelona 🇪🇸 .......... I’m not ashamed to admit that @instagram influences about 60% of my decisions to visit certain spaces, attractions and destinations. Of my #2018travels so far - #Lisbon 🇪🇸 #CapeVerde 🇨🇻 #SouthofFrance 🇫🇷 #Morocco 🇲🇦 #Barcelona 🇪🇸 #Portugal 🇵🇹- roughly 5/6 of the trips were booked within weeks of scrolling past a stunningly crafted @instagram image of said destination! .......... Recently I’ve been thinking about just how influenced human beings are by imagery 📸🌅🌄 Specifically, how images can serve to liberate or perpetuate ideals/stereotypes. And I thought, how incredibly lucky are we - the #GenZ and #Milennials of the social media stratosphere 📲 to be living through the birth of this visual storytelling revolution, because we now can view our big ole world through many many eyes; what’s one perspective when you could have 7 billion 👁👁👁👁👁👁👁👁 . Here are just a few of the beautiful ‘eyes’ I’ve been enjoying viewing the world through this week: @floboniface @noirewayfarer @africanbeautyatlas @trevor_stuurman @victoria.alao ......... Have you booked a holiday based on a pic you spotted on @instagram?? Let me know where to in the comments! • . . .
#WTDRweekly Travel Deal: MALTA 🇲🇹 .......... Did things a little differently this week and asked which amazing destinations YOU wanted WTDR to find drop-price deals to in 2018 👀🗺👀 ........... Out of dozens of instastories replies, there could only be one pick.... @jehosheaf_md_ COME GET YOUR DEAL TO MALTA 😆🏖🍹 (Details will be inboxed) .......... Ps: nuff love to my international tribe who sent in replies in their droves, thank you for participating but I can only accommodate departures from UK airports for now 😢 .......... See how far YOU could travel, if it’s What The Doctor Recommends ✈️🌍❤️ • . . .
