Healthy Eating for Less: Eating On-The-Go:

Travel can throw off scheduling, diets and exercise.  But it doesn’t need to.  

Here’s some ways that you can stay healthy while on the move:

Opt for local foods
Choose healthier options while dining
Combine eating with outdoor time - eat outside on patios or picnic in the park
Check out local markets & support local farmers
Opt for water
Walk instead of drive 
Set bedtime & wake-up routines
Know your body - rest when needed
Find outdoor workout equipment - this is popular in some French cities
Walk on the beach
Spend most of your time outdoors
Relax in nature
Listen to upbeat music to energize & reset your mood
Awaken your aesthetic senses in nature, with street art, art galleries & at outdoor concerts
Set an exercise routine & make it a morning or evening ritual
Carve out time for everyone to have some alone time
Be social - get to know other travellers & locals
Support local economies & small businesses - spread your travel dollars
Prioritize family time
Set time limits for electronics if this is a priority
Draw if you find it relaxing

Remember to help keep yourself & others safe too. The easiest things to do are:

Stay up-to-date on vaccinations
Wash your hands often
Consider wearing a mask if you are feeling unwell & taking public transit
Pack a basic first aid kit
Make sure to have travel insurance for any medical visits

A vacation should be just that - a vacation. Use it as a chance to reconnect with family & to do some of the things that you might not always have time for.
