Many people travel to enrich and enjoy themselves. Lonely Planet and Forbes listed their top trends of 2019. Here, TEENS has picked out three of them. Let's take a look.
Augmented attractions
World travel can be expensive. But virtual reality and augmented reality (VR and AR), are giving more possibilities to "travel" for little cost. With ever-improving headsets, smartphones and WiFi connections, technologies have changed the way we travel.
In 2019, NASA provided a VR experience of Mars, allowing people to "walk" its surface with just a headset. Paris' famous museums, meanwhile, provided more applications with AR technology, which gives visitors more context and information about exhibits.
Which style do you prefer, travel on your own or with family and friends? Traditionally, travel seems to be a group activity to have fun together and avoid loneliness. But that has changed. This year, solo travel has become popular, especially among young people.
Traveling on your own means that you are the boss of everything, choosing wherever you want to go, whatever you're eager to tuck into and whenever you go out. For some people, it also releases a better person, ready to deal with anything. It opens up your mind to new things and pushes you out of your comfort zone.
Getting off the common path
There are always some "must-see" spots anywhere you travel. Paris' iconic Louvre Museum is an example. However, with crowds blocking your view of Mona Lisa to take pictures with their phones, you may not be able to enjoy this masterpiece.
In order to avoid the crowds, many like to visit less famous places after searching online or following local agencies. With less transportation and fewer things to do, hitting up small towns lets people slow down and notice the little things. Do you know better ways to enjoy the scenery?
A. Solo Travel

C. Travel brings power and love back into your life.
D. However, their travel methods may be different each year.
E. Traveling in a totally foreign land on your own can be challenging.
