Thank you
Think this is such a fabulous site and my residents have enjoyed a number of your suggested activities xx
I have never done an armchair travel to there
What inspired you to want to do this??
I asked if one could be developed
In the meantime try these and modify it to your needs

I have done an armchair travel to Morocco, but I have done quite a few to a number of places. The last one was to Vegas and I am currently working on one to Romania. We have visited other places at the resident's request. For this activity I print out the passports, boarding passes and the stamps. I add a country stamp for every country we visit and stick them in the passports. Our kitchen staff work with us in getting foods from that country. We collect videos from youtube about the culture, their clothes, places to visit and any special events the country celebrates. I print pictures of the places and hang them around our activity room and we have trivia time which helps the residents learn about the place they visit. We also invite family members to join in the activity as well. At the beginning of the trip the names of the residents are called and tickets, boarding passes, and spending money is given to them. They really enjoy it and I have a great time putting it together.
I hope this helps.
Thanks for the information
It’s very helpful
