AFTER WHICH TRIP DID YOU DECIDE TO OPEN A BLOG?
There is one trip in particular that marked a caesura, not so much because of the place (which is enchanting anyway), but because it led to a different awareness: to a before and an after.
We were in Lyon at a time of year when people usually don't go on holiday. The city revealed itself to us in an unusual way. For the first time we felt like travelers and not tourists. The desire to share, to make the most of the teachings that every journey can offer, gave us the inspiration and the desire to make it available to anyone who wanted to benefit from it. What's better than a blog for this?
Traveltherapists our travel blog was born from the need to talk about our travel experiences from a perspective shared by both of us, i.e. the psychological one. We believe that recounting our experiences can be useful to those who after us will reflect and experience the journey in an informed way.
PSYCHOLOGY, ART AND TRAVEL, IS IT AN ESSENTIAL TRINOM FOR YOU?
When we started our adventure as travel bloggers on Traveltherapists, it wasn't clear how much psychology could be part of it. At a certain point, it is as if each element had found a place.
Everything that was our past training, not only psychology, but also the other more creative and artistic parts, emerged naturally. We cannot talk about travel without talking about its psychological aspects, we cannot talk about the world without the form that best celebrates it: that is, art.
In fact, within our blog you can find updates on the exhibitions that we liked the most and on the topic of Travel Psychology.
WHAT WAS THE MOST EXTREME EXPERIENCE YOU HAVE LIVED WHILE TRAVELING?
Despite being quite experienced travellers, a few years ago due to a national strike that caused traffic to go crazy, we missed our return flight to Milan, leaving us stranded in London.
After the initial panic, we had to calm down to find a later flight. We can say that the airport staff were not very helpful. We had to spend more than 24 hours at the airport waiting for the first flight to take us back to Italy.
It was quite surreal.
WHAT DO YOU DO TO MAKE YOUR TRIPS MORE ECOLOGICAL?
We all know that traveling unfortunately pollutes. Both for travel, but also in everyday life, we use LPG cars to reduce pollution. We try to choose flights from airlines that care about environmental issues or that at least compensate for CO2.
We also try to stay in eco-friendly hotels. If you search the web, you will find various lists available. We have a large section dedicated to environmental issues on our site, where we also try to help our readers make a difference.
We use reusable water bottles and separate waste wherever it is allowed and possible. We believe that eco-sustainable travel can help the world we are going to visit but also ourselves.
