5. Learn a language
If you’re pretty serious about traveling, learning another language can really boost your travel game. Even if you’re only staying in another city for a few days, bridge the language barrier and impress the locals with useful phrases.
4. Download handy travel apps
One of the best things about travel these days is that with the Internet at your fingertips, you’ve got a ton of travel information at the ready. Whether it’s finding your way around, looking for local recommendations or figuring out the best transportation to explore, there are useful travel apps for your needs.
3. Pack light
Do you really need your entire closet in your maleta? Pick versatile clothing with a similar color scheme, so you can mix and match them. Additionally, roll them instead of folding them in your bag for more space!
2. Pick the right clothing
Always research your destination ahead of time — whether it’s for the weather, customs or tradition, you don’t want to show up in ill-suited clothing.
1. Be open to other things
Don’t expect a foreign city to be exactly like your city back home; additionally, don’t expect one place to be similar to the last. Enjoy each destination for what it is, with its own set of culture, context, sights, sounds and peoples.
