Digital detox: away from Internet, close to you

How many incredible views have you lost just because you were too busy with your smartphone? It is time to stop being digital-addicted: look at these 10 destinations for your digital detox holiday!

A quick look at Facebook, a check to the e-mail, then see the photos on Instagram, a message on Whatsapp, but wait: and if I missed something on Facebook in the meanwhile? So you open again Facebook, then the e-mail and it all happens again to infinity. This is how we literally got intoxicated from the digital world, and we cannot but recognise the fact that it has consequences on us. We need to be purified from this vicious circle.

So there is nothing better than an authentic connection with  nature, a walk in the green, a holiday away from anyone and anything, where the only thing that matters is you and the harmony with the world, the real external world, without filters nor screens through which you can see it.

Go offline and discover again the real connection with yourself in one of these 10 wonderful destinations… start immediately your digital detox holiday!
