Ok so you are planning that ultimate travel package abroad. You do your home work and get the package booked and off you go. You have a great holiday with a few gripes and moans here and there however on the whole you enjoyed the holiday. Now when you were there you stayed on the left hand side of the town however when you get there you see that the right hand side of the road is really where you wanted to stay. (I am using this to illustrate a simple point I am sure you can add in your own example) You get home only to chat to your friends and family when you get home and they say yes of course you should have stayed on the right I would have told you that?
My point is tell everyone where you plan on going, for how long and why you are going, it is for work, pleasure or just to escape for a while. This may change the nature and positioning of your holiday depending on where you are going. You do not want to get back to hear ” Yes I would have told you that” or similar. It is no fun and makes an ultimate holiday a simple slap in the face. Do your homework before you go and speak to people that have been there or done it before. Just because your travel agent says so that you will agree when you return. Their point of view is just that, one persons point of view, get a few views before you make that final payment.
Speak to friends and family as often they have been, sure take what they say where it comes from and with a pinch of salt if you have to. Get a few views and see if the underlying left or right side of the road is the same, maybe it really is not and that was just your point of view? Maybe now is not the best time to travel. Do your home work and ask for advice often it is free!
