The Art of Traveling

The Art of Traveling

As you explore your destinations, keep in mind the following points from The Art of Traveling, by Wilfred A. Peterson:

Travel Lightly - Pack only what you will need; this is a life experience, not a fashion show.

Travel Expectantly - Approach each destination with an open mind and sense of adventure.

Travel Humbly - Respect the traditions and customs of people and places.

Travel Courteously - Be considerate of hosts and fellow travelers.

Travel Gratefully - Show appreciation when people tend to your enjoyment and comfort.

Travel with an Open Mind - Leave your prejudices at home.

Travel Fearlessly - Do not be timid or anxious.  The world and its people belong to you, and vice-versa.

Travel Relaxed - Resolve to let go and enjoy yourself.

Travel Patiently - Do not be frustrated by language barriers and unfamiliar customs.  Be flexible in all situations.

Travel with a World-Class Mentality - people are basically the same around the world, so emulate the program's name and be an ambassador of good will.
