There's a lot out there about how to maximize the use of natural light, most of it revolving around working during golden hour or diffusing it somehow. However, that restricts you quite a bit, and golden hour light may not actually be the right quality for the what you're trying to convey. This great video examines how to get better images no matter what the light.
Coming to you from Mitchell Kanashkevich, this great video examines how to take better travel photos regardless of the light and why you might even want to embrace "bad" light if you're trying to tell a certain story. Particularly when traveling, you're working on time and location constraints, and if you're working with natural light, waiting for it to be just right is not only impractical, it limits the ways you can portray your subjects, and if documenting is your goal, that can be a serious limitation. It's really more a question of asking yourself what exactly it is you're seeking to portray with your work. The tips work great for more than just travel photos, so even if you're just shooting standard portraits, give the video a watch!

I've finally figured out what's holding me back. I can't realistically speak with a British or Australian accent. ;-)
I love taking photographs whenever I am exploring the beauties of this world. It feels so good to capture a fascinating image in my camera. Other than photographing, I also like reading. Articles like https://www.nosweatshakespeare.com/blog/shakespearean-words-that-hold-up... are my source of inspiration. I have read most of the Shakespeare books that were recommended in this article.
