Why going offline still feels so extreme

Friends dining together while focused on their phones, highlighting social media’s grip on real-world moments.

Let’s be honest: how many of our trips begin with a photo we saw online? A perfect sunset. A dreamy hotel. A latte with just the right lighting.

But ask yourself: would you still go if you couldn’t post about it?

Social media has turned travel into performance. We plan for the shot, dress for the grid, and chase views — sometimes forgetting to feel them.

When we travel for the feed, we lose the quiet mornings, the aimless wandering, the real conversations. We miss the chance to be in the moment.

To reclaim your trip:

  • Travel offline. Post later — or maybe not at all.
  • Let yourself get lost. Ditch the map.
  • Journal what you feel, not just what you did.
  • Do something that doesn’t photograph well… and love it anyway.

This isn’t about quitting social. It’s about remembering who the trip is really for.

So next time, ask yourself: would I still go if no one else saw it?

If the answer is yes — that’s the trip that’s truly yours.

The most unforgettable trips aren’t always the most photogenic — they’re the ones that belong to you, not your followers.
