Tips for Traveling Alone
When it comes to traveling, sometimes taking a journey alone can be great. Traveling alone allows for a time of self-reflection, relaxation and self-discovery, when you can take the time to soak in the opportunity to experience your choice destination exactly the way you want.
Planning your trip
1. Where to stay
So you’ve finally decide to take advantage of some well-earned vacation time and visit Prague, the city of your dreams. Because you’ll be all by yourself, the planning of your trip is automatically different. One of the first questions worth considering is how you’re going to spend your time in the beautiful Czech Republic capital. Are you intending to do some cheap travel or would you rather go all-out and book a room in a fancy hotel?
Because traveling alone means your money is funding the trip, a wise choice would be to stay youth hostels. Cast away the wrong idea that these place are uncomfortable and dirty, and accept the fact that hostels provide safe, clean, comfortable, and most importantly, cheap housing that millions of students and economical travelers take advantage of every year. It is relatively easy to book a room at a hostel via the Internet, and plenty of information available about each one. On the other hand, if you can’t wait to take advantage of room service and a Jacuzzi bath, then turn to a hotel.
2. Have a plan
Along with securing your accommodations, prepare a route of the journey for each day before you leave. This plan should include everything from visiting all the famous landmarks to some relaxation time, which is essential since you’ll be likely walking for miles in your comfortable shoes (invest in a good pair, it will pay off).
As great as organization is, however, you may, at times, deviate from your plan so as to leave room for some sceneries unexpected or unplanned on your trip. That is exactly the beauty of traveling alone: you are your own master, and while preparation is key, there is always room to do something wild.
Important information prior to takeoff
One of the hardest parts of traveling in general is coming up with a list of what you’ll need to bring with you (or leave behind). Thinking of these all-important items becomes all the more difficult (and necessary) when you have no one else to rely on.
1. Luggage
Whatever luggage you take, make sure it’s easy to handle. The best solution is to take one hold-all, be it a suitcase or a backpack, and then a smaller bag which you can hang loosely from your shoulder. It’s also a good idea to keep a change of clothing in your shoulder bag in case your suitcase or backpack gets lost by an airline or bus company.
2. Carry a dictionary
If you’re heading for a foreign country, don’t leave home without a bilingual dictionary. Although a strong grasp of Czech will prove quite difficult, it is still important to learn phrases like "thank you" , "hello", "please", and "I didn’t know she charged money for her time", in case you’re in trouble.
3. Make copies of documents
Make a copy of all essential travel documents such as your passport and health insurance. Keep the copies separate or leave them behind with someone you trust, in the event of an emergency.
4. Bring a credit card
Along with cash, bring a credit card as an emergency method of payment and make sure to take note of your credit card company’s customer service line in case of loss or theft. That way, you can cancel your card immediately and have a new one delivered to your trip (if possible).
5. Pack pleasure items
A book to enjoy on a train ride or on the beach, a journal to record your experiences and maps to educate yourself on the layout of the area (you can get these from a tourism bureau), can make a world of a difference.
With these things in mind and a positive spirit, you are now officially ready to set out on your own. Finally there
You’ve taken the big step, said goodbye to your family and friends, endured long plane ride, and are finally in the place you dreamed of visiting... until now. You might be quite overwhelmed by your new surroundings, but there are ways to control these feelings of over-stimulation.
1. Blend in
Instead of being an outsider looking in, try to transform yourself into a relaxed traveler who is not held back by minor frustrations, such as long lines at the train station or delays in visiting hours of certain landmark.
2. Take your time
Another benefit of traveling alone is the ability to explore museums and engage in other time-consuming activities. There is no pressure to rush through exhibits or cut the visit short; pace yourself and take in the masterpieces, whether you’re an art lover or just a beginner.
3. Getting around
Make an effort to walk everywhere — within reason, of course. This will help you get in touch with the area (so to speak) and observe the locals in their element. Using your legs also allows you to find interesting shops and cafes more easily than if you were on some poor-quality tour bus. Your goal should be to blend in, something a well-designed (and perhaps overpriced) tour won’t likely offer. Wear loose, light clothing because the more comfortable you feel, the more willing you will be to stay out an extra hour to explore a section you might have overlooked.
Remain enthusiastic, relaxed and prepared, and the stories you will have to share upon your return will be priceless.
Extra tip:
Bring along a camera with lots of films.
Leave your route with someone at home, along with the numbers of each place you’re staying at. It’s okay if your plans are not complete, but if there is a big change in your plans, you might want to e-mail the new information to your "in case of emergency" person back home.
Stay safe and keep an eye out when it comes to money or your belongings; you don’t have a companion to catch the pickpocket creeping up from behind.
While having fun is important, so is safety. Be carefree, but don’t throw caution to the wind. [br] When arriving at your destination, you should turn yourself into a relaxed traveler rather than
选项
