Happy National Virtual Vacation Day everyone!
And no, this wasn't a new event created this year given everything that is going on with the coronavirus outbreak.
It's just incredibly crazy timing.
The day was founded by Terrance Talks Travel back in 2016. And with the current state of events in our world right now, you can plan to celebrate this for the next month instead of just today, March 30th.
There are a number of sites and attractions you can tour virtually.
Additionally, you can also look at stunning photos to help fuel your travel daydreams.
You can also watch travel shows or documentaries related to the travel world to help get your fix. It may spark new ideas of where you want to go once this is all over.
One show that's sort of related to the tourism industry that's been taking the internet by storm over the last week is the Netflix documentary "Tiger King."
Have you seen it? I just began it this weekend and it's one of those 'why am I watching this but yet my goodness I just can't look away' type shows. Truly riveting.
The series shows a look into the exotic animal park world. I truly hope it opens the eyes for many because animals kept in cages and bred for roadside attraction pictures is just wrong.
Think twice about where you put your money when you travel.
Virtual travel is a main focal point for those with the itch to see the world but are stuck in a quarantined world.
