When you pack your bags to explore the
beauty of your own country or to travel around the world, consider
these keys to a happy journey:
Travel lightly. If you don't, this will probably be your greatest
frustration.
Travel slowly. Jet planes are for getting places, not seeing
places; take time to absorb the beauty and inspiration of a
mountain or a cathedral.
Travel expectantly. Every place you visit is like a surprise
package to be opened. Untie the strings with an expectation of
high adventure.
Travel hopefully. "To travel hopefully," wrote Robert Louis
Stevenson, "is better than to arrive."
Travel humbly. Visit people and places with reverence and respect
for their traditions and ways of life. |

Travel courteously.
Consideration for your fellow travellers and your hosts will
smooth the way through the most difficult days.
Travel with an open mind. Leave your prejudices at home.
Travel with curiosity. It is not how far you go, but how deeply
you go that mines the gold of experience.
Travel with imagination. As the old Spanish proverb puts it: "He,
who would bring home the wealth of the Indies, must carry the
wealth of the Indies with him."
Travel fearlessly. Banish worry and timidity; the world and its
people belong to you just as you belong to the world.
Travel relaxed. Make up your mind to have a good time.
Travel patiently. It takes time to understand others, especially
when there are barriers of language and customs; keep flexible and
adaptable to all situations.
Travel with the spirit of being a "citizen of the world." You'll
discover that people are basically the same in the world. Be an
ambassador of goodwill to all people.
And lastly, travel with a journal. Write your own stories. Keep a
journal. Your photos and journals are life-long treasures to
remember your unique discoveries and memorable experiences. I wish
you unique and memorable experiences.-
