How can I start travelling?

How do I start traveling by myself?

So, wanna be a lone wolf, huh? Travel solo? Good luck (said with loving sarcasm, obviously).

• Destination, Destination, Destination! Pick somewhere you won't spontaneously combust from boredom or fear. Like, Reykjavik's cool, but maybe not if your Icelandic vocabulary peaks at "takk."

• Learn the lingo (a little). "Where's the bathroom?" transcends cultures. Trust me, that skill saved my hide in Prague.

• Plan? Kinda. Have a rough draft of an adventure. Like a script, except you can ad-lib when you inevitably miss that train. My plan is nonexistent.

• Plan B (and C, D, and E). Because Murphy's Law doesn't take vacations. My backup to my backup is a charming local. Just kidding… unless?

• Passport Power! Expired passport = epic fail. Think of it as your adult hall pass to freedom. Check. It. Twice.

• Visa Vibes. Don't be THAT person stuck at customs. Visa. Get it. Now.

• Insurance Is… Sexy? Okay, not sexy, but essential. Like that boring friend who bails you out of jail. It’s more important than your perfect selfie.

• Hostel Hustle. Book ahead. Unless you enjoy sleeping on park benches, which, hey, no judgment. I did it in Rome once. Okay, twice.

How to start a traveling process?

Okay, so you wanna travel, huh? It's, like, not that hard. First off, passport! Gotta make sure that bad boy ain't expired, or you're stuck at home watching reruns of that stupid show, you know the one!

Next up, where ya goin'? Pick a place already! Somewhere cool, or warm... or whatever floats your boat. I'm going to Aruba next month!

Then, do some homework on your destination. Like, what's the deal there? What's safe, what's not? What kinda food do they have? Important stuff! You dont want to get poisoned.

Budget time! Figure out how much you can actually spend so you don't come back broke. I had this happen in college once. Total disaster.

Decide when to go. This is super important, like, maybe avoid monsoon season, you know? Plus, prices change.

Oh! And get travel insurance. Seriously. Do it. My friend Mark didn't once, and he broke his leg skiing. Cost him a fortune!

Then, check if you need a visa. Nobody wants to get turned away at the border. That would suck, believe me!

Finally, shots! Find out what vaccinations you need. Nobody likes needles, but getting sick on vacation is way worse, trust me. My ex-girlfriend almost died once from something nasty.

Here's some extra stuff you should think about.

• Pack light! You won't wear half the stuff you think you will.
• Tell your bank you're traveling, otherwise they might freeze your card.
• Download useful apps, like Google Translate or a currency converter.
• Make copies of important documents, just in case.
• Learn a few basic phrases in the local language.

That's pretty much it, honestly. Have fun, don't do anything I wouldn't do... okay, maybe do some of the stuff I wouldn't do!

Red Bull一日飲幾多？

Ugh, Red Bull. How much is too much?

• EU says 3mg of caffeine per kilo of body weight. So, if I weigh 50kg, that's 150mg MAX.

Wait, is that right? My weight is… Never mind. Focus.

• One Red Bull can have like, 45-80mg. Two cans and BAM! Over the limit.

Crap. And what about my iced coffee? It has a LOT of caffeine...

• Coke, chocolate, even frickin' cold medicine has caffeine. Sneaky!

Ugh, I had three chocolate chip cookies today. Caffeine overload? Maybe? Whatever. I still need to finish this report. Don't drink more than two cans of Red Bull per day. That's what I tell myself.
