Travel Tips
- Keep an open mind while you are abroad. You may experience culture shock, but that is a good thing. You should open your mind to learning more about new cultures and just realize that one way of doing things is not right or wrong, it is just different! :)
- Don't be afraid to put away your guide book. Try traveling off the beaten track every once in a while, just be sure to keep safe! Other than that you will be pleasantly surprised by your new travel discoveries :)
- When I visit...Spain I try all of the different types of food!
- When I visit...a new country I live by the phrase Mark Twain's famous phrase: "Explore. Dream. Discover." That is what traveling is all about!
- Pack light, you always bring home more than what you left with. Also, passport, camera, and map go a long way!
- Be ready to do anything.
- Buy a neck brace to wear during those long flights- it will support your neck a lot better than those little pillows, and help you to actually get a little sleep.
- Plan, just not too much, you never know what could happen and you don't want to be too confined in what you are doing.
- When I visit...Thailand get an apartment to use as a base. It is much cheaper than a Hotel. You can leave most of your stuff there and just have your small bag stuffed for your trips to the islands
- When I visit...
