Do you sometimes feel guilty about visiting the same place twice…or more?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

Vancouver, B.C., a few hours north of Seattle, is a favorite I find myself revisiting again and again.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Some argue that revisiting destinations is a waste, that life is too short to spend time and money going to a place you\u2019ve already been. But this belief implies that the goal of travel is to visit as many places as possible before you inevitably kick the bucket. This simply isn\u2019t the case.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many of the people I follow on social media always seem to be jetting off to one new place or another, and a small part of me wonders whether I should be doing the same.  However, experience has shown that the most honest expression of how I prefer to travel could be compared to how you\u2019d build a long-term relationship–by developing intimacy through repeated interactions over time.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t get me wrong: one of the most important elements of travel for me is what I call the \u201cinfusion of the unfamiliar\u201d–that feeling of landing in a new place and being disoriented, grasping for something that looks and feels a little bit like home. Those early moments in someplace new, when I\u2019m feeling overwhelmed by loss of control, lay the foundation for my most poignant memories of personal growth. It doesn\u2019t take long–usually a day or two at most–before I begin to rediscover my identity within the framework of my new surroundings. That first inkling of belonging in a place where I\u2019m an outsider feels intoxicating every single time.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n

However, as I\u2019ve become a more tenured traveler, I\u2019ve realized that some of my most memorable travel experiences have happened in places I\u2019ve returned to again and again. I\u2019ve discovered that sometimes the most satisfying travel isn\u2019t about going wide–it\u2019s about going deep. If your goal is to visit as many countries or destinations as possible to check off items on your bucket list, there\u2019s absolutely nothing wrong with that pursuit. However, if you\u2019re interested in really spending time in a single place multiple times, that doesn\u2019t mean you\u2019re doing travel \u201cwrong.\u201d I\u2019ve always believed that for travel to be satisfying, you\u2019ve got to travel your truth<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Still unconvinced? If you\u2019re feeling torn between the allure of the unfamiliar but similarly haunted by the familiar comfort of cherished locales, here are a few of my tried-and-true tips for keeping those old favorites feeling fresh.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Change your timing<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If your first visit to a destination happened in the spring, try visiting during the fall next time or vice versa. You might be surprised by how climate, daylight, and seasonality impact how you experience a destination.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adjust your mode of transport<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you visited a city by car before, consider crafting a new experience by seeing that same city on two feet. Walking around forces you to slow down, providing a richer, more nuanced experience. In contrast, driving instead of walking might allow you to access harder-to-reach sites that could enrich your visit.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shift your surroundings<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If your repeat destination is a large city, choose to stay in and explore a neighborhood you haven\u2019t seen before. You\u2019d be surprised by how much it feels like a completely new place.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n

Go solo<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019d previously visited a destination with friends or family, give solo travel to that destination a whirl. Traveling by yourself feels totally different from traveling with someone else. It\u2019s like reading a new book without anyone else\u2019s notes in it.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even if you don\u2019t embrace any of these suggestions, there are still a few more things to consider: people and places aren\u2019t static. They shift and evolve with time. So even if–with all other things being equal–you do decide to revisit a place you\u2019ve been to before, both you and your destination will undoubtedly be different from what you both were in the past. As a result, fresh experiences are bound to happen.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although one of my 2018 travel goals is to visit more new-to-me places, you can be sure I\u2019ll be sure to sneak in an old favorite or two. What destinations are you planning to revisit this year?<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
