10 tips for novice travelers

Here is our daily digest from Orgtraveltips

1. Volunteering


There are many intermediaries to coordinate international volunteer projects. Each of them has a website and has a database of projects.
Selecting the camp should consider the type of activity. Volunteers travel to the camp and return home. The premises and food for the project will reduce the cost of the host country.

The main advantages of this trip are:

    language exercise
    engaging with local communities and an interesting cultural program
    Volunteers interact with people and communicate with different people
    to acquire new practical skills
    It's easy to find your friends
    ability to demonstrate quality and ability.

This is a very interesting outdoor activity.



2. Couchsurfing


Couchsurfing - In order to walk around the city, you can find your head, friends, information, and roof over your company. In short, it depends on the purpose of the search. There are tourists there.
Two categories:

    They are planning to stay home for several nights to communicate and learn new things.
    You can find a place to sleep, travel company or any information.

Condition:

    Communicate with local communities
    Saving the life
    company participation.

Situation:

    choose carefully, careful choice, and different people have different goals;
    The owner of the room is a dependent on the other person's requirements, and you are a guest;
    It is almost impossible to find a place to sit near paradise during high season.

Generally, this option needs to be considered. Someone like that, but some do not.



3. Apartment


If you are traveling to a number of countries with short stops at 1-2 in the evening, you will not have to look for a hotel. Housing is usually cheaper.

There are special services for accommodation: booking.com.

    Read the reviews and define it exactly as a hostel
    In view of the location, it may be a problem if the hotel is far from the city center or train station
    Find the time and hours of flight. It is inconvenient to travel to and from the 12th day to the next to the 22th night ticket.



4. Knowledge


The information is not great. You never know the benefits. It is important to have a plan to investigate. Take a look at the museum addresses and schedules. Understand the history of the walk around the city and understand what is in the building that holds a mosaic on the walls of local temples. Of course, you need to get familiar with the shipping schedule. It has a metro plan.

 5. Luggage


Take all the necessary items when collecting baggage. Lightweight and more compact sacks will "pull" this.

Tip:

    You can buy lots of things like soap, toothpaste, and shampoo on the spot.
    It is better to use the necessary medicines with you. In another country they can not be, or be different.
    Make sure you have the advantage back. In other words, you have to pay a lot of money at the airport.
    Things to bring during the journey can be brought back and forth: old t-shirts, dormitory shorts, disposable slippers, old hats.
