"Good morning and welcome to this sunrise safari on the fringes of the Kruger National Park in the northeastern corner of South Africa," greets the ranger at the wheel of a jeep moving along the roads of the Timbavat Nature Reserve. Every day in April, at dawn and again at sunset, experts from WildEarth and the travel agency & Beyond broadcast live the adventure of exploring the savannah in search of wildlife, one of the experiences you have to live at least once in the life.

Technology these days in quarantine is our best traveling ally, taking us by the hand through colossal scenarios. It invites us to peek into places as exciting as the Kruger, or as far away and as foreign as the seabed of the Pacific or the pens of an English farm crowded with sheep.

"The most incredible light show in nature," says the description of a Churchill broadcast in Canada that offers viewers to see live Northern Lights . This is one of the best times of the year to attend this sky phenomenon in that part of the world.

Aurora borealis.

The camera is located at the Manitoba City Center for Northern Studies, directly below the aurora oval, one of the best places on earth to observe the audible borealis. The page also explains the scientific phenomenon so that viewers understand what they are looking at.

WITH PENGUINS AND QUOKKAS

Abated by the lack of visitors, zoos and aquariums around the world are broadcasting live. The Sydney Aquarium, for example, has aimed its camera at some of its most photogenic inhabitants, from adorable penguins to quokkas, which always cause a furor in the networks. The prestigious San Diego Zoo also maintains a permanent window for panda and polar bears, among many other species.

Views from the Tamarindo Diria Beach Resort, in Costa Rica.

Of course, the largest catalog of live cameras is found in Explore, with more than 160 spread around the world.

Those seeking maximum relaxation can connect to the Seattle Botanical Garden, which at certain times of the day through its Instagram profile is broadcasting flora, although it is difficult to know with what success. We do know from various studies that spending five minutes in front of nature helps you have more positive emotions.

Relaxing must also be the sunset in settings such as Lake Tahoe, between California and Nevada. Although these days even Fifth Avenue in New York is a balm of peace. We can travel as far as we want , even to the International Space Station. See if you discover Nessi in Loch Ness? It is also possible.

Beach break

Thanks to this golden age of live streaming , we can go on vacation. It is the proposal of some hotels that in the face of an uncertain future have installed a camera to share their views. The Malibu Beach Inn, for example, offers us a virtual getaway to its pier between seagulls and the occasional surfer. The Inbal, in Jerusalem, meanwhile, invites you to see a stellar panoramic view of the old city.

In London, the Hilton on Park Lane does the same with the British capital. And if we want to frolic on idyllic beaches we can go to the livestream of the Tamarindo Diria Beach Resort in Costa Rica or to the feed of the Caribbean island of Saint Lucia. Perhaps seeing how the waves break, and occasionally how some lucky ones ride, will serve as an escape route. Or kill us with envy.
