6 Travel Tips Everyone Should Know
Several countries, thousands of flights, and endless road trips. That’s the life of a travel writer, and it teaches you a lot of fair things. I would like to share some of my travel tips with you as I found them very helpful on every trip I went on.
Be Annoying
It’s time to talk to different people. The waiter, the concierge, the bar staff, or that customer sitting at the next table who looks good. Ask them questions about what to see, and you will find that people will love to share their tips and knowledge with you. Trust me many people get nervous, but starting a conversation randomly and you are just a step near to the next hidden gem.
Get Out Of The Bed
This is the most difficult thing to deal with, especially for those who love to stay in bed a little longer than usual. You should get up early because there is a lot that happens before brunch time. So get out and head out to a diner for breakfast in Washington or hit the best beach in Italy before hordes of tourists reach there. Trust me you won’t regret this one; you can sleep as much as you want once you reach home.
Keep Your Phone Charged
There is nothing worse than being out of technology due to a dead battery. Keep a power bank with you so that you are never out of battery.
Join The Cloud
That iPhone is not worth any value, and that is for one main reason: pictures. Memories are the best thing you make on trips, and without them, the charm of going on a journey will be lost. Gone are the days when you use to keep the manual backup. Apple now keeps you covered with iCloud, set your cloud up, and gets access to every photo and video from anywhere.
Remember Your Favourites
Remember that fantastic restaurant you went to the last time you visited New York four years ago? No? That’s bad! Next time just ask your phone to remember it, in Google Maps only write the name of the place and then hit “save”. This method will help mark it with a star so you can always go back and check it out.
Carry Cash
From Amsterdam to Cambodia, being short on money is not a great deal. You won’t find an ATM everywhere, and you can’t always use your debit/credit cards to pay for hotels, bars, and restaurants. Carry emergency cash with you around $150 in USD or the local currency of the destination you are visiting.
