MY TOP 10 ESSENTIAL TRAVEL TIPS!
1, Never judge a book by it's cover, If you do this to people when travelling you really will limit your travel experience. Leave your prejudice at home and jump on the plane with an open mind.
2, You will quickly realise that CASH is king, be sure to have a back up stash hidden away.
3, Be aware of your surroundings at all times, If you constantly walk down the road with your headphones in you might struggle to take it all in.
4,Buy a decent pair of sunglasses, I have always had cheap pairs and one day in Australia I bought a decent pair and they are so much better your eye balls will thank you.
5, Chill Winston, when you travel you have the freedom to change your plans and some times plans are changed for you. If you are able to chill and not get too stressed about these unforeseen changes you will enjoy your travels so much more. Always keep your plans in sand so you can move them around on a whim.
6, Take pictures you will regret not doing this. You don't need a fancy DSLR just a decent phone or a point and shoot.
7,Keep a diary of your travels, I wish I did this from the start but hey my diary is now on YouTube.
8, Writing a to do list for the next day is a great way to keep you from having wasted days when travelling.
9, Don't be afraid to make the first move and introduce yourself to people, More than likely they are in the same position as you and fancy a chat.
10, My most important tip is be YOU. If you don't agree with something stand up for yourself and don't follow the crowd. Its easy to get caught up in the moment and find yourself in trouble.
