Enhance Your Trips Abroad

By: Rod Tilton

One of my great passions is traveling as much as time and the old bank account will allow. Whether you travel alone or with others, there are certain tips that can really help. Here are a few.

1. Preserving Travel Experiences – Digital cameras are nice and all, but you need a long term memento from your trip. When it comes to preserving travel experiences, take a writing journal. Nomad Journals are the best around.

2. Stupid Foreigner Tricks – Locals sometimes like to have a joke at your expense. It usually has to do with food. Don’t eat strange stuff unless others are.

3. Deadly Ice Cubes – If you are concerned about the quality of water at a destination, don’t make a common mistake. What is it? Drinks with ice cubes. The ice cubes are made from the same water!

4. Montezumas Revenge – If you get diarrhea in a country, you need to focus on keeping hydrated. Try drinking one glass of carbonated water with a table spoon of sugar.

5. Is Spicy Food Safe? – There is a belief among travelers that spicy food will not cause stomach issues. Umm, no. It just adds a little heat to the misery.

6. Really Cheap Flights – If you have the urge to travel, but little money, there is one really cheap flight option. Charter flights are usually dirt cheap. On the downside, you get what you pay for and there are limited flights.

7. Sweet Sorrow Traveling – If you are on a long trip, you will inevitably get tired of those traveling with you. To avoid this, go solo and hookup with others through hostels and such. When you get sick of them, move along.

8. Solo Travelers and Hostels – If you are traveling by yourself, you may eventually need some social time with other travelers. Hostels are the place to get it.

9. Kids and Trip Planning – Do not plan a trip without getting your kids input if you are taking them. If they are not involved, they will complain endlessly. If they are, they will be more open minded.

10. Japanese Rice Etiquette – When eating rice in Japan, never stick your chopsticks in the rice such that they are standing up vertical. It is a symbol of death.

Travel is many things to many people. Some prefer luxury while others prefer to rough it. I have to admit I tend to fall in the rough it group, but a night of luxury isn’t too bad either!
