Hi Travellers This is third part on travel tips. #35 Get vaccinated Because falling prey to an illness in a foreign country is not fun — and many countries require you to get vaccinated in order to visit them so, regardless of your opinion on the subject, you just might have to. #36 Learn to haggle This is still a weakness for me. Looking at my partner haggling is a fun, playful way of not getting charged the foreigner price. It’s the art of negotiating and one that will help you throughout all of life, not just at the market. #37 Use points and miles for free travel. You can go a lot further in the world when you don’t have to pay for it. Learn the art of travel hacking and collect points and miles through your everyday spending so you can get free flights , accommodation , train tickets, and other forms of travel ! #38 Take a jacket, sweater, jumper or hoodie Nights get chilly. #39 Eat street food! If you skip the street food, you miss out on culture. Don’t be scar...

Hi Travellers As promised the next part of travel tips... #22 Libraries, Starbucks, and most cafes have free WiFi If you’re staying someplace that charges you to connect, check out one of these places. You can connect for free. #23 Never eat in a touristy area or near a tourist attraction As a general rule, walk five blocks in either direction before you find a place to eat. The closer you are to tourist attractions the more you are going to pay and the worse the food (and service). Use websites like Yelp , Google Maps , Foursquare , or Zomato to find some delicious and popular restaurants around you. #24 Locals don’t eat out every night and neither should you Go grocery shopping. You can learn a lot about locals’ diets by seeing the type of food they buy. Plus, it will save you a lot of money. You won’t regret it. Cook your food, save money, surprise yourself! #25 Eat at expensive restaurants during lunch Most expensive restaurants offer lunch specials feat...

Hi Travellers I have been travelling since I was 10, and even more so after leaving school. As much as I am passionate about travelling, it comes with challenges... Most people aren’t born savvy travellers. It’s something that only comes with experience. In the beginning, you make a lot of mistakes. Travel adroitness is a process born of missed buses, foolish behaviour, cultural unawareness, and countless tiny errors. Then, one day, you begin to seamlessly move through airports and integrate yourself into new cultures like a duck to water. To speed up the process and help you avoid mistakes (and I often make a lot of them), I put together a giant list on travel tips that cover nearly everything under the sun to assist you reach your full travel pugilist craft: #1 Small suitcase By purchasing a small suitcase , you will be forced to pack light. Humans have a natural tendency to want to fill space so if you pack light but have lots of extra room in your bag, you’ll end up goi...

These websites work like robotic travel agents.

Travel dates back to distant past  where wealthy Greeks and Romans would travel for leisure to their summer homes and villas in cities such as  Pompeii  and  Baiae .   While early travel tended to be slower, more dangerous, and more dominated by trade and migration, cultural and technological advances over many years have tended to mean that travel has become easier, more accessible and a lot more affordable.  Mankind has come a long way in transportation since  Christopher Columbus  sailed to the new world from Spain in 1492, an expedition which took over 10 weeks to arrive at the final destination; to the 21st century where  aircraft  allow travel from Spain to the United States in less than 10 hours. Travel methods have come along way from kicking off by foot followed by bicycles over land ,boats and ferries across waters , to today by  air plane, with or without luggage, and can be one way or round trip.
