To save the most on travel, resist the mainstream. Instead, think like a contrarian — including where to go, how to go and when to go. “I call this frugal secret the off-travel mind-set, a willingness to chart your own course to savings and possibly a better experience, “ the Frugal Traveler columnist Elaine Glusac writes. Swipe through for the off-travel travel strategies she relies on, and read more tips at the link in our bio. Illustration by @robertsamuelhanson

South Carolina cannot “sub” for Europe. No shade on either place but they’re not even close to similar. C’mon y’all.

Take it from someone who grew up in Baton Rouge but has lived in New Orleans for the last decade: BR can’t come CLOSE to what New Orleans is. Horrendous advice.

Can’t afford steak? Spam is chewy and meaty, just like steak!

I’d argue that for many locations there isn’t really an off season anymore. Everything seems to be expensive all year long, and crowded too ah!

Definitely Lafayette rather than Baton Rouge. Southern Cajun culture and much better food than BR!!!

The Grab-and-Go snacks come in so clutch! #CapitalOnePartner ✈️ I’ve been lucky enough to try out a wide range of airport lounges in the US and I think that @capitalone does it best. I always leave feeling rested, refreshed and with a full belly & snacks to take with me. Plus, outlets to charge my devices are really nice when I travel for work. And how cool are the relaxation pods?! Having access to Capital One Lounges is just one of the many perks of being a Venture X or Venture X Business primary cardholder 👏🏼 Terms apply.

Finding my very own Palouse landscapes in Denmark! 😁 Back in the days I always felt that Denmark was boring to photograph because of all the fields. Now I embrace them! When I learned how to approach them and get good photographs in these types of landscapes it suddenly went from something that held me back to a feature! One technique is to benefit from dappled light. Something I talk much more about in my ebook all about light in landscape photography (get it via the link in my bio). Dappled light is just incredible as it literally paints the landscapes with light and adds both depth and dimension!

PENDAKI GUNUNG INDONESIA

Pemerintah Provinsi Nusa Tenggara Barat (Pemprov NTB) segera membentuk tim penyelamatan dan evakuasi kecelakaan sebagai langkah untuk memperbaiki sistem pendakian di Gunung Rinjani. Langkah ini diambil pasca-insiden terjatuhnya pendaki asal Brazil, Juliana Marins, yang memicu perhatian Gubernur NTB, Lalu Muhamad Iqbal, untuk meningkatkan keamanan dan kesiapsiagaan di area tersebut. Dalam tahap awal, Pemprov akan melatih 12 warga asli Rinjani menjadi tim penyelamat yang akan dilatih oleh instruktur bersertifikat nasional dan internasional dari anggota FPTI. Selain membentuk tim penyelamat, Pemprov juga berkomitmen memperbaiki citra dan branding Gunung Rinjani. Selama ini, destinasi tersebut lebih dipromosikan sebagai lokasi trekking santai, bukan pendakian gunung yang membutuhkan keahlian khusus. Oleh karena itu, Upaya ini dilakukan agar pendakian di Rinjani dipahami sebagai kegiatan yang membutuhkan keterampilan, keahlian, dan kondisi fisik prima, bukan sekadar jalan-jalan santai di bukit. Pemerintah juga akan memperbanyak pemasangan rambu peringatan, tanda bahaya, serta membangun pos-pos evakuasi di jalur pendakian. Selain aspek perlindungan dan promosi, aspek keamanan teknis juga menjadi perhatian utama. Jalur pendakian di Rinjani akan dilengkapi dengan tali pengaman di titik-titik strategis dan pemasangan rambu yang jelas. Mengingat keindahan dan tingkat kesulitan jalur pendakian di gunung ini, upaya ini penting untuk memastikan keselamatan pendaki dan memudahkan tim penyelamat saat terjadi kecelakaan. Semua langkah ini menunjukkan komitmen Pemerintah NTB untuk terus memperbaiki sistem dan keselamatan pendakian di Gunung Rinjani.

PENDAKI GUNUNG INDONESIA

Beberapa waktu yang lalu ramai soal lokasi lahan perkemahan di sejumlah Gunung Gede Pangrango yang diduga dikuasai oleh pihak tertentu. Banyak pendaki mengeluhkan hal tersebut. Terkait hal ini, Menteri Kehutanan (Menhut), Raja Juli Antoni, mengaku belum mengetahui kasus tersebut. Namun, ia berjanji akan memperbaikinya. “Makasih masukannya. Semua gunung kita perbaiki,” ucapnya saat ditemui di Kompleks Parlemen, Senayan, Jakarta Pusat pada Rabu (2/7). “Kalau ada data, ada fakta, saya akan usut. Saya akan tuntas ya. Termasuk, saya tidak segan-segan akan memecat pihak-pihak terkait,” tambahnya. Soal ini, belum jelas siapa pihak bertanggung jawab. Diduga ada pihak yang ‘bermain’ sehingga menyewakan kavling sampai didirikan tenda. Sumber : kumparan.com Foto Keren Gunung Gede by: @tiarachalistaa #mountnesia #pendakigunung #gununggedepangrango
