Travel Tips: Comfort Zone
When venturing outside of the United States, be a traveler, not a tourist, author and syndicated columnist Doug Lansky told a group of Tyler Junior College students Wednesday morning, according to the Tyler Morning Telegraph.
“A traveler pushes themselves out of their comfort zone whenever they get a chance,” Lansky said. “More valuable than passport stamps are e-mail addresses from locals and others you have met.”
…The most important advice: Be a good ambassador for the United States.
I couldn’t agree more. When traveling take the time to get to know the culture and the people. It especialy shows you care when you attempt to learn there language. Its a good way to laugh together.
