How to maintain a healthy lifestyle on Summer Vacation

May 30, 2018

Eat before the airport. Chow down on a big meal before hitting the airport to avoid having to eat at the fast food courts. If you forget and need to eat there, try fruit or a salad.
Save space for treats. Visiting France? It’d be a sin not to try out some crepes. And that's just fine. On days you’ll be indulging more than usual, try to keep other meals and snacks on the healthy side.
Visit food markets. They’re a great place to soak up local culture and eat delicious, cheap, fresh food!
Pack snacks. When you plan to be out all day, bring along your own healthy snacks to hold off hunger. It’ll keep money in your pocket and away from unhealthier options.
See the sights. On foot or bike, that is. Skip the bus tours and check out your new surroundings the old-fashioned way to burn calories while taking in the views
Keep work away. It’s a vacation, remember? Resist the urge to check work e-mails and focus on having fun. It will keep your mind clear and allow you to decompress.
