Although it may be more difficult these days due to the virus, there is hope that the world will open up more in the near future. The good news is that new research shows that traveling can improve your mental and physical health, improve your romantic relationships, and even increase your financial and career opportunities.\u00a0 Our delightful guests on Love University, Dave and Deb (the <a href=\"http:\/\/planetd.com\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=http:\/\/planetd.com&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1621400620140000&amp;usg=AFQjCNEGUiq0AcEeB5bhqXG4ivicfLPZeA\">planetd.com<\/a>), Forbes Top 10 Travel Influencers, shared some of their secrets for happy travel that can change your life (traveling saved their marriage).\u00a0 Here is what we learned from Dave and Deb:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>*Traveling can improve your confidence, self-esteem, and career\/business prospects<\/strong>.\u00a0 Dave used to be more Introverted and self-focused and Deb used to lack confidence (she was intimidated by all of the stars she worked with in the entertainment industry). After traveling to over 100 countries, they have transformed their personalities.\u00a0 Dave is now more empathetic and outgoing as he feels for those who are less fortunate in the world, and appreciates what he has back home.\u00a0 Deb is more confident because she feels like she is a more interesting person and can talk about more things because of her travels and life experiences.\u00a0 Also, when they return from their trips, they find that they have more business opportunities; they get great ideas while traveling and are more creative when they return. In the same way, traveling can improve your confidence, creativity, and relational skills. Start planning your future trip today.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>*Traveling can save your marriage<\/strong>. After ten years of marriage, Dave and Deb were overworked professionals in the Canadian entertainment industry, and on the verge of divorce, until they discovered traveling. Heeding a friend\u2019s advice, they traveled to Thailand and fell in love with the country, as well as the idea of seeing the world and making a living out of it. Now millions of people read their comprehensive and entertaining travel advice blog.\u00a0 Their most romantic destination? Maldives, a chain of islands off the coast of India and Sri Lanka.\u00a0 Going there is like being transported to a beautiful island paradise, where there is turquoise water, and each hotel its own island. It was made for romance (get your couples massage).\u00a0 Their best couple traveling advice? \u201cWhen you\u2019re fighting with your partner on a trip, let it go. Say to each other, \u2018I don\u2019t want to fight anymore,\u2019 and find something you like to do in common. Remember: One huge argument doesn\u2019t have to ruin a great relationship.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>*Take care of your health, safety, and security when you travel<\/strong>. According to Dave and Deb, it\u2019s important to get travel insurance, including medical evacuation insurance\u2014for any emergency you will be flown back home. Also, make sure you get your vaccines\u2014certain countries require proof upon entry\u2014and avoid eating food that can make you sick. Dave and Deb say that eating street food is OK if it is properly cooked, but don\u2019t eat things that are peeled (an orange is OK if not peeled). Also, be wary of ice and make sure you purify the water you drink.\u00a0 For ladies, Deb has this advice: \u201cTake an extra credit card and cash, wrap it in toilet paper, and put it in your tampons. A thief probably won\u2019t think of looking there for your money.\u201d Dave and Deb add:\u00a0 \u201cMake sure you split up your cards and money.\u00a0 Put them in carry-ons, checked luggage, and backpacks so you have money in different places in case some things get lost or stolen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>*Learn and be compassionate<\/strong>. One of the greatest things about traveling is learning about other cultures and developing relationships with interesting and fascinating people. Deb says that one of her fondest travel memories is becoming friends with a tuk-tuk driver in Sri Lanka (drives a three-wheeled motor vehicle used as a\u00a0taxi). He drove them everywhere and they got to know his family. During their friendship, they learned that, although he was poor by Western standards, the driver was a great humanitarian.\u00a0 He helped raise money for schools and brought shoes to children in poverty. They fell in love with his heart of gold. Dave and Deb advises that when you\u2019re traveling, you should be patient, courteous, and empathetic to the people you meet, including service providers (be kind; realize how hard they work to make a living). If you have the opportunity, donate and volunteer (teach English) to help the people you visit.\u00a0 It\u2019s a great thing to leave a loving contribution in every place you visit. You will uplift lives and you will feel better as a human being who loves others and contributes to their well-being.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Dave and Deb conclude by saying that you don\u2019t have to be rich or a celebrity to travel.\u00a0 It is possible to travel on a budget (even seniors are staying at hostels these days; it\u2019s a great social experience). You can enjoy your time without spending an enormous amount of money. Also, traveling with kids and pets can be a fun and rewarding experience, although it takes a bit more preparation and planning. In the end, traveling is a way to expand yourself, gain new memories and experiences (travel memories are among the most beloved), and create positivity, love, and new friendships. It\u2019s true that traveling and meeting people from other cultures is what unites us as human beings. By traveling and connecting with others who are different, we realize that, deep down, we are all alike\u2014we all live, we all laugh, and we all love.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/podcasts.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/love-university-with-dr-alexander-avila\/id1245020886\">CLICK HERE FOR MORE ON <strong>HOW TRAVELING CAN SAVE YOUR MARRIAGE, MAKE YOU MONEY, AND TRANSFORM YOUR LIFE:<\/strong>\u00a0 <strong>WITH DAVE AND DEB, FORBES TOP 10 TRAVEL INFLUENCERS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CLICK HERE FOR THE FULL SHOW: https:\/\/podcasts.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/love-university-with-dr-alexander-avila\/id1245020886 Do you love to travel?
