#TravelTipTuesday : With summer just around the corner, it's the perfect time to start planning your next getaway. Research any summer events or festivals at your destination. Consider adjusting your travel dates to coincide with these events for a unique and memorable experience.

The journey is just as important as the destination! 🏙️ Here’s how you can navigate a new city like a local: 💎 Download the city's public transportation app for real-time schedules and routes. Purchasing tickets in advance when possible, and check for special tourist passes that offer discounts on multiple rides or include entry to attractions. 💎 Choose accommodations in a local neighborhood over the tourist spots. You’ll discover the city's true character and maybe even make some local friends along the way. 💎 Seek out hidden gems that aren’t crowded with tourists. Research or ask locals for recommendations on lesser-known museums, parks, cafes, or neighborhoods that offer a unique perspective of the city. 💎 Participate in local events, festivals, or workshops to experience the city's culture firsthand.
