1. Not everything always goes the way we planned |
|
Regardless of how much research you do pre-trip, how much planning you sculpt, things go wrong. Flight are delayed, bus schedules are wrong, you may get on the wrong bus, might you may end up in the middle of nowhere while traveling, might your day trip will cancel because of flight cancellation . Don’t let those things ruin your experience. Reinforce Positivity in Yourself. If the bus or flight as you planned is canceled then there might be some alternative. There might be another route, may be you can take taxi instead of bus, may you can hike to that place or simply changing the course of your travels. The more you can roll with the unexpected, the better time you will have.
When you are in some other country, try to start conversation with their own language. We are not saying fluent in another language but people appreciate it. Learn the basic greeting and how to tell people you don’t speak their language before you go off speaking English language. Depending on how awful your accent is, they’ll automatically revert to English if they feel hard to understand you.
Comfort foods is the food which provides a nostalgic or sentimental value to the consumer but try the food which you have never tasted before.
