The last one is truly on your own, just you on the road. This podcast and book is focused on any of these three options for independent travel.

Today’s Mistake-Booking round trip without thinking it through
Instead of booking round trip, book two one-way tickets. My mistake was I went to Barcelona and once I got there, then I flew to Madrid. I should have booked my trip home from Madrid, instead of going back to Barcelona and then back to the US. So I wasted some time, nearly a day in transit and in time booking the trip back plus accomodations and airport travel. If you buy two round trip tickets, they may even be cheaper than a round trip ticket. Try it on your next international trip.

Today’s Travel Advice- Here’s a quote from Anthony Bourdain, who wrote on travel.

It seems that the more places I see and experience, the bigger I realize the world to be. The more I become aware of, the more I realize how relatively little I know of it, how many places I have still to go, how much more there is to learn. Maybe that’s enlightenment enough – to know that there is no final resting place of the mind, no moment of smug clarity. Perhaps wisdom, at least for me, means realizing how small I am, and unwise, and how far I have yet to go. (Anthony Bourdain, travel expert)


I want to bring meaning to your travel. Send me your travel tip or question to my Facebook page, group, Instagram, Twitter, or blog, and maybe you’ll see your tips in my next travel book on independent destinations.
