One unexpected lesson I learned from traveling with just a backpack is that you can’t make excuses if you want to stay active. If you spend time looking for the perfect outfit, the best gear, or the right location, you’ll end up with a long list of reasons why you can’t exercise.
“I don’t have the right clothes to go to yoga class,” one of my family members said this week when I invited her to a free session at the local recreation center. We were both vacationing with only a backpack’s worth of clothes. She skipped the class, and I went in the same outfit I’d already worn for biking, walking, and pickleball that day.
As long as I feel…
