Practical Tips from four Years of Travelling the World

For those who are just starting out or reading from home, some practical tips from 4 years of

travelling around the world:

1. ____________________________________________

The nature of travel is that it intensifies human experiences, transcending social rules that would

apply at home. So when I meet a great group of people we end up spending days talking, sharing

meals and exploring. Most people are open to meeting others and learning from them as they travel.

2. ___________________________________________ What it means is learning how to use guidebooks to your advantage. I rarely look to guidebooks for

the name of a hostel or restaurant. Instead, I look at their recommendations. Almost every one of

those recommendations will help you find another good restaurant within walking distance,

especially in less developed countries. Smart people quickly learn that when these books

recommend a place, they quickly get overcrowded and prices go up. The solution: they open a place

right next door or nearby. Without fail, those are the places that are cheaper, more delicious.

3. __________________________________________

Regardless of what climate I pack for, I’ve always got these five things in my bag: safety whistle,

doorstop, headlamp, sleep sheet and sarong. I’ve got many other things as well, but these five are

there, for shorter trips or longer trips or anything in between.

4. ________________________________________

You cannot deny that in most of the world, the common thing of culture, tradition and family is food.

So, take a cooking class. See if you can learn how to cook with a local family. Go to the markets and

watch how people eat, how they handle their foods or when their primary mealtimes occur. Most

places are so much more than a list of sights to see; most places tie their food to their communities,

to their history.

2. READING COMPREHENSION

7

5. __________________________________________

When I go to a new place, I find the eldest cab driver possible and ask him where he ate breakfast.

Once he gets over his shock that this is what I want to know, he tends to break into a huge grin and

start talking about food. Eventually, he takes me there. And the food is almost always delicious,

fresh and somewhere I’d have never found without his help.

6. _________________________________________

I made the mistake of not packing them when I left in 2008 and they were the first thing I bought in

South America. I’ve had a pair with me ever since. While my quick-dry pants are terrific for hiking, I

personally don’t feel fashionable in them. I also want to feel like myself, and I do wear jeans quite a

lot when I am back in North America.

7. _______________________________________

Yes, there are cultural differences and traditions that differ – vastly – but the basics of human

emotions and the kindness in a smile are everywhere, and a beautiful reminder of our shared

humanity. Ask questions, encourage people to ask them of you. In the end, human connection is

what makes the world go round.

8. ______________________________________

I don’t mind them very much – besides, they are everywhere. You get used to the clickety sounds of

them roaming around because you have no real choice. The good news is that they rarely, if ever,

bite.

A. Be a travel parasite.

B. Being a solo traveller does not mean that you are lonely.

C. Cockroaches are, in fact, as universal as you feared.

D. Food makes the world go round.

E. Let your parents help you pack.

F. People are more alike than you think.

G. Stop listening to people who tell you not to pack jeans.

H. Taxi drivers: more than just getting from A to B.

I. There are things you should not leave home without.

according to the text.

Town called Eighty Eight

From her post office in the front corner of the 88 Market, Donnie Sue Bacon handles mail for 70

rural addresses. In a town this size, the postmistress knows everybody in town by name, face and

magazine subscription. Most of the 200 people of Eighty Eight get their mail by general delivery.

That means Mrs. Bacon puts it aside until they come in and get it. Why buy a post office box if you

went to school with the postmistress? 5

People don't often move away from this farming community in south-central Kentucky, and it's even

less common for anyone to move in. Consistency is a fact of life here. Mrs. Bacon has been

postmistress for 31 years and for 30 of those years nothing ever changed but the price of stamps.

But by the second day of January 1988 she knew this year would be different in Eighty Eight. All at

once, Mrs. Bacon's postmark had become a hot item. By spring she had retired her old pad and 10

stamp and the Postal Service had equipped her with a new self-inking postmark device. A group of

seniors from the University of Southern California sent in their graduation notices so they would be

postmarked Eighty Eight, Ky (Kentucky).

Letters from one coast passed through Eighty Eight to be christened on their way to the other coast.

Gradually that fact began to take hold in Eighty Eight. When people came into the market, its owner, 15

Rose Mary McPherson, would joke that, to commemorate the occasion, they all ought to get

together and do something big on Aug. 8 - 8/8/88. The people laughed because nothing big ever

happened in Eighty Eight. The biggest thing ever was when the village reported 88 votes for Dewey

and 88 for Truman in the 1948 election and the fact was included in ''Ripley's Believe It or Not.''

But articles started appearing in newspapers, and a national television news program sent a camera 20

crew in. Soon Mrs. Bacon was getting letters from all over the world. People in Italy, Argentina and

Singapore wanted those letters mailed out of Eighty Eight on 8/8/88. Finally one day, Mrs.

McPherson turned to Mrs. Bacon and said, ''You know, Donnie, we really ought to have us a

celebration.''

Nobody objected much, as it turned out, and so the celebration was held on Sunday, the eve of 25

8/8/88. The big event on the following day was the wedding at 8:08 of a Wyoming couple who

thought it would be memorable to get married in Eighty Eight that day (the only difficulty being that

if either of them ever forgets the anniversary, it'll be tough to come up with a good excuse).

D. The price of stamps has changed 30 times.
