Fast 5 Travel Tips: Leave the Stress at Home

5 Tips for enjoying ANY vacation more:

1. Pack your sense of humour and curiosity. A perfect vacation does not exist. Laugh at the hiccups and keep going. Don't let one wrong turn spoil the day.

2. Leave your schedule and work at home.  Work will wait for you....this is your VACATION.  Don't skip the museum or eat in the car just so you 'can stay on schedule.' Relax and stay up a little later. Sleep in. Have brunch at 11am rather than trying to squeeze in breakfast and lunch at your usual time, or between activities.

3.  Wear bright colours and take more pictures. This moment only happens once, but your memories can last through photos.

4. Ask more questions. Ask a clerk where SHE would go for lunch. Ask a fellow traveller if he has discovered any must-do activities in the neighbourhood. Smile, and don't be shy.

5. Buy the local newspaper. Read it over coffee while you relax. You'll be surprised with what you learn, and you may even see a coupon or a local offer that catches your eye.
