Samantha Brown’s Places to Love – How To Make Travel Count!
Travel Itinerary for This Episode: https://samantha-brown.com/episodes/season-4/make-travel-count/
We ask a lot of our travels. We want travel to relax us, make us feel fulfilled, bring us closer to our family and friends and reinforce our own sense of self. And we want all this to happen in the five days we have off. But here’s the thing. Travel can do all that for you, no matter how much time you have and where you go. It’s all in how you approach it.
Travel is for everyone. One of the most important lessons I’ve learned is that the benefits of travel are real, whether you have gone 100 or 10,000 miles away. That’s why I’m sharing how I get the most of my travels, no matter how much time I have, if I’m traveling with family or all by myself. I’ve developed these (sometimes unconventional) tips over the last 22 years I’ve created travel shows. Here’s how to make travel count.

Thanks Samantha for this video! I found it very insightful and interesting. I appreciate your travel tips! I think we all forget that when we travel, we are supposed to disconnect and enjoy the location. We get so excited to finally be visiting the location of our dreams that we don't take the time to just stop and …breathe. Thanks for the 25 + years of amazing travel content. Been a fan for many years! Thanks and Cheers!
Brilliant to do the daily ritual. Honestly, my best travel spurts did involve the repetition of getting coffee at the same spot every morning or finding the just-right pastry shop to return to every day. I hadn’t really thought about that pattern before 🙏🏼
Fun Fact: This was from our fourth season, aka "The Pandemic Year." I think public television would have been content with just cobbling together a generic "clip show" in order to create an episode for the season. Samantha had other ideas… and this unexpectedly turned out to be one of the best episodes – certainly the most unusual – we ever did. Enjoy, everyone.
Thank you for showcasing the core of travel♥️ Your shows have always been a source of comfort and grounding connection to humanity. Many thanks to you, your family, production team, and all those who brought you into our homes! Cheers to travel!
Your desire for connection is why you are my favorite travel channel, Samantha. Thank you for being you🙏
I saw this when it first aired. Our first post-pandemic European trip, we followed the daily ritual in Scotland at a local pub. We talked to several people. They didn’t understand why we stayed in their town😂 loved all your shows!
Watching your shows, I wish I were more extraverted. So hard to talk to strangers!
Dear Samantha! Your wonderful smile and sunny approach to the World have been my moments to go to for decades! And now you are here again, with your kindness, love, and wisdom. Many Thanks!!! Liza
So wonderful. So true. So important!
Life lessons! I will keep this in mind the next time I get on a plane to go somewhere, which I haven't done in 25 years (not my intention). I need to remind myself to not cram everything in and enjoy the everyday moments. Thank you Samantha!
