Daily Candy’s Travel Commandments

At Daily Candy they do away with resolutions this year to offer their devoted readers travel commandments instead. If you couldn’t come up with any of your own I suggest a trip over to see their two-cents on how and what you should be doing with your precious travel moments abroad. I’ve got a slew of my own and I’m sure you’ll hear them all as the year goes on, but for now we focus on their list. This is about Daily candy after all, not me.

So, what should you be doing you wonder? Well a super-nifty idea they offer (and for those who aren’t frazzled with their long list of to-do already) is to take digi photos of your luggage and its contents. It’s not a full-proof plan on making sure your baggage arrives, but it can’t hurt. Bring souvenirs back for co-workers covering your arse while you were away playing in Tokyo somewhere. Another nice one they offer is when you get ripped off, don’t take it personal. That one might come easier for some than others depending on budgets, but just keep in mind that if someone takes advantage of your tourism dollars they needed them much more than you did anyway. Think of it as an extra donation/contribution to the economy.
