- It’s always nice to have options.
- Always be wary of the set-up.
- A fifty in your shoe can save your ass.
- A complete and total lack of any main plan is often the best plan.
- Meet the locals. A trip anywhere is incomplete without doing so.
- Record the experience - whichever method you prefer.
- Don’t bring sand to the beach.
- Just put it in your mouth and eat it.
- Invest time, effort and money in procuring the highest quality of intelligence. It’s nice to get lost, but it’s no fun getting to the border at Friday at 1pm and being told it’s closed until Monday morning.
- A trip postponed is likely a trip that will never be taken. Do everything you want to do in the places you visit - time and money permitting - you probably won’t go back. Along this thread, don’t be afraid to drop a few ducats on something you really want to buy or something you really want to do.
