Are you READY?

Little Tips Before you Takeoff

  • Make sure that all your documents are properly acquired and completed, such as paperwork and visa for passport (sometimes it can take up to six weeks to obtain the visa).
  • Recheck whether your credit and insurance cards are in your wallet/purse and did not end up on the dining table while you are in the plane.
  • For those who are not millionaires, prepare how much money you want to spend on your trip (transportation, restaurants, hotels, souvenirs, etc). 

What? Domestic and International Travel?
  • Domestic travel, in this case, is in the U.S. and it also includes Hawaii, Alaska, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
  • International travel is other places in the world and requires more procedures:
    • You will need a passport when you return from other countries to the U.S.
    • Each country have different considerations, so it is best to find out more information at the country's embassy (if you are in other country other than USA, you can search online for the country's embassy in your country).
Walk, Sit, Stand, Drive?
Each country has their own ways of transportation:
  • Backpacking - Some countries you can tour by just bare feet and many people love to travel with just one bag and their shoes!
  • Trains - There many types of train transportation such as sky-train, railroad, underground, and high-speed rail. Some countries like Europe is best to travel by trains.
  • Cars - It is fun to drive-tour in another country, but you want to make sure that you know the rules of the road before you start your engine.
Where to sleep?
You don't want to end up having no place to spend a night, right? Then where should you search for a place to stay? Booking your accommodation should be done before your trip starts.
