Ditching my laptop at dinner changed how I experience places.
I used to bring my laptop everywhere, even to dinner. A few weeks ago, I left it in my room one night. I ended up having a great chat with locals instead of working. My stress dropped and I enjoyed the evening more. What tips do you have for unplugging while traveling?

Seriously! I used to be the same way, always hunched over my screen in cafes. Felt like I was just moving my office to new places. Once I stopped, I noticed the little stuff way more, like how a place actually smells or the background music. It makes the whole trip stick in your mind better, not just in your camera roll.

Honestly, after ditching my phone too, I started remembering trips by smells and sounds instead of just screenshots.
