Experienced Travelers’ Best Kept Secrets

  • July 17, 2017
  • admin

The life of a traveler is rather simple. Keep on traveling. Don’t stop. Look for new interesting locations. Explore them to their fullest. Wash, rinse, repeat.

Many of the experienced bloggers keep a journey log. Some publish it online in their travel blogs, others store them on in their photo albums and diaries.

Nevertheless, regardless if they are more open to sharing your travel experiences with everybody, or keep them to themselves, many travelers have their best kept secret destinations.

Sometimes, a traveler discovers a little diamond s special, so unspoilt, that they really do not want to share it with the rest of the world. These diamonds don’t have to be completely hidden away. They can be very obvious, but out of sight for a regular tourist Joe.

Here are 3 sweet spots we decided to share today. For the rest of them, you’ll have to do some digging and exploring of your own!

Europe: Renting a campervan in Slovenia

Europeans are already used to it, but the rest of the world may oversee it for some other flashy locations. Nonetheless, Slovenia is one romantic country that needs to find its place on your European itinerary.

Located between Austria and Italy, it’s not that hard to add it to your stops.

But, where is that Slovenian diamond? It’s definitely in their beautiful nature that often gets neglected by the city tourists.

So how to meet your city thirst for one of the most romantic cities in Europe and Slovenian capital, Ljubljana, and get to see their nature?

My secret is – renting out a campervan. There are many excellent services such as Vanvoyage that offer short-term lettings to roam around Slovenia, Austria and Croatia.

Get ready to dip your feet in the sea, and explore the Julian Alps!

Australia: Skiing in Thredbo

Yes, you read that right – why not go skiing in Australia?

Sure, that’s a country with a mild climate and many go to discover their wonderful urban cities and nature, but rarely do you hear people going to Australia to ski.

Skiing in Australia is a diamond for those who want a versatile holiday – you can go skiing and then hit one of the warmer places there pretty quickly. And, who doesn’t want to see what a winter in July looks like?

For a quick overview of what Thredbo has to offer, you can just have a quick search and find many apartments in Thredbo to book right away.

Latin America: Sun bathing with the natives in Puerto Escondido

“Hidden port” is not the most beautiful seaside place in Mexico. That title is mostly reserved for more fancy places such as Cancun and Tulum filled with American tourists all year round.

Playa Zicatela and Playa Carrizalilllo are the best offer of Puerto Escondido for fanatical surfers looking to relax and enjoy some waves.

So, if you are looking to avoid that craze and spend time enjoying sun and locally sourced fresh food with the natives, Puerto Escondido will give you a treat you’ll remember.
