Do you like swimming ?


Swimming is one of the most satisfying ways to keep fit. Most cities will have many inexpensive swimming pools.
One of our favourites was the public outdoor pool near our hostel in Vientiane, Laos. It cost just £1.50/$2 each time to use and made the perfect respite from a day behind the laptop.

When searching for Airbnb apartments, you can filter searches to include swimming pools.
In Bangkok for example, there are many inexpensive condos in the suburbs like Udom Suk, which will have decent 25 metre swimming pools along with a small gym. The average price we paid for a condo in Bangkok with gym and pool was around £20/$25 a night.

ADVENTURE TRAVELLING

One of the best ways to incorporate cardio into travelling is via fun outdoor sports like kayaking, trekking and underwater activities.
In Nepal we trekked the Annapurna Circuit, which included around 7 hours walking in the altitude almost every day. Down at sea level, we love the underwater world and do lots of snorkelling and scuba diving, both of which are fun cardio exercises.

One of our most memorable adventure holidays was Koh Tarutao in Thailand. This island is completely free from mass tourism with plenty of cycling, jungle treks, kayaking and snorkelling opportunities.
You know your body’s been worked hard when after a day of scuba diving or trekking at 5,000 metres, you’re craving calories and carbs like crazy.

7 Body-Positive Instagrammers You Need to Follow Now

7 Body-Positive Instagrammers You Need to Follow Now By  Julia Sullivan  on May 8, 2017 From your former high school classmate with the seemingly perfect life to models who travel the world (paired with the hashtag #wanderlust, of course), let’s be real here––Instagram isn’t always the most feel-good place. Rather, it can feel like a place of instantaneous FOMO where you find yourself constantly comparing yourself to others. But despite the plethora of perfectly angled selfies and gorgeously filtered landscapes, there’s a trend gaining serious momentum on the photo-sharing app, and—best of all—it’s rooted in body positivity. While you’re probably familiar with the term and how it’s displayed in ads and social media, it helps to remember that body positivity is the belief that people should be liberated from feelings of self-hatred and value their true beauty, all while making that same change in their communities, according to The Body Positive. In other words,...
