Before the arrival of Miss Rona into our lives, I knew a lot of us who had planned exciting and fun trips all over the world. However, all these plans were cancelled due to the sanitary crisis we are currently living in. Therefore, as a lot of us are unable to travel anywhere due to country bans, health issues, relatives etc., I decided to collect within one article many resources that would help us travel… from home!! For me, travelling can take many forms, from museums to food, video games, documentaries, and more. So, here is a non-exhaustive list of 100 things you can do to travel from home:
Museums – Virtual Tours
- The Louvre – Paris, France
- Metropolitan Museum of Art (MoMA) – New York, USA
- State Hermitage Museum – Saint Petersburg, Russia
- Vatican Museums – Vatican City, Vatican
- Louvre Abu Dhabi – Abu Dhabi, UAE

A very comprehensive list and I love the inclusion of other travel bloggers! Also, I loved the Rijksmuseum! When I visited years ago, I missed a few exhibitions because it’s such a large museum. Glad to know they’ve got virtual tours!
