Barbados has a reputation for being one of the world’s most exclusive holiday destinations. A playground for the rich and famous; Simon Cowell, Hugh Grant, Royal couple Prince Harry and Meghan plus Rhianna all own homes in Barbados (Rhianna was born on this island!). It’s also a holiday getaway for celebrities such as Mark Wahlberg, Mariah Carey and Mark Zuckerberg. 

This paradise island is a popular Caribbean cruise destination, which is how we first encountered Barbados. Famed for its luxury resorts, if you’re travelling to Barbados and are looking for a home-from home, why not stay in a villa?

Booking a villa has many benefits, but what exactly should you be looking for? Feet Do Travel discuss the best that Barbados has to offer. 

When we think of going on holiday or vacation, we usually have images of lying on the beach, basking in the sun with a cocktail or two, trying new foods or exploring new places. But what about exercise? 

Some people don’t want to lose their hard earned fitness when they travel, and there are a few easy ways you can stay in shape when you’re away. In fact, you could combine physical activity with exploring places.

Don't let your next trip be an excuse to stop working out or to not stay in shape! Feet Do Travel share four ways to stay active and exercise on vacation.

Do want to create a life you don’t need to escape from? Are you dreaming of the expat life, to be free to do what you want when you want? Maybe you have a goal to be a digital nomad, freelance travel writer, or perhaps a travel blogger like us!

We love travelling so much, we decided to sell everything we own to make a new life for ourselves. This could be considered too extreme for many people, so perhaps you want to make a home in another Country and take your treasured memories and creature comforts with you. We have a friend who moved from chilly London to sunny Florida, and one of the most challenging parts was the logistics of relocating. 

Enlisting the professional services of an international removal company will be your best option, as they can guide and advise you every step of the way for a stress-free move.

Feet Do Travel want to help you with the headache of relocating, so you can create a life you don’t need to escape from.

One of the best parts about travelling is the different experiences you keep with you. Unfortunately, most of us have to move on and return home eventually, (unless you become a digital nomad!) leaving the wonderful places that we’ve seen behind. But you do get to keep the memories.
​
There are many ways to hold onto memories and experiences of a great trip. If you’ve met people, you can keep in touch with them via social media. They may even become a life-long friend, and you decide to arrange more trips together. Many people buy souvenirs to constantly remind them of their adventures; we used to collect wooden wall masks to display our memories.

For most travellers, it's the photographs you take which will keep your memories alive. Feet Do Travel will share the best advice on how to capture those special travel memories with photography.

While there are many benefits to travelling, you also need to think about sustainability. Sustainable tourism is a type of tourism that minimises the negative impacts on the environment and culture of a destination. It is also more environmentally friendly than conventional tourism.

Sustainable travel has become an important part of the tourism industry. Travellers need to be more conscious of their carbon footprint while travelling, and there are many ways to reduce your impact which include making sure you stay in eco-friendly accommodation, choosing environmentally friendly transportation, buying local food, reducing your single use plastic usage, and eating less meat. 

Feet Do Travel are advocates for eco-friendly travel and responsible tourism, and would like to share a few ways to help you become a more sustainable tourist.

Due to its status as Australia’s largest airport, the majority of backpackers travelling across Australia are likely to land in Sydney at some point, even if they haven’t planned a dedicated trip here. In some instances, Visa limitations or stopover times may, unfortunately, mean that the airport itself is about as much of Sydney as you’re able to see. However, if you’re lucky enough to have a few hours or even a day in Australia’s biggest city, it’s possible to have a whole lot of fun with this layover. 

If you don’t have a long time during your layover, but you want to see as much as possible without carrying around a heavy backpack, it’s best to arrange luggage storage Sydney in advance of your trip. You can then drop off your bag as soon as you land, loosen your joints, and get stuck into an awesome stopover in Australia.

Are you one of the millions of people buzzing to travel again, eagerly waiting for your departure date? As you write your packing list and get yourself beach ready, are there items you are choosing to leave out this year? How about cigarettes?

Congratulations if you have recently quit smoking! Did you know that cigarette butts have been the most commonly found trash on beaches for over 30 years? On beach clean ups, it is cigarettes we find the most as people believe it’s OK to bury them in the sand. It is not! Birds and fish mistake them for food, they are a toxic pollutant, do not biodegrade and litter our oceans for centuries.

You may have chosen to ditch the cigarettes, but are probably still faced with many temptations, especially if you are visiting a country where tobacco is cheap! However, planning your trip accordingly will help you manage your urges. 

Feet Do Travel want to support you in remaining smoke free during your travel, so here is our 5 item checklist to help you.
