Ten Commandments for Travelers

Ten Commandments for Travelers
1. Thou shalt not expect to find things as thou has left them at home, for thou hast left they home to find things differently.
2. Thou shalt take nothing too seriously, for a carefree mind is the basis for a good study abroad.
3. Thou shalt not let other tourists get on thy nerves, for thou art paying good money to enjoy thyself.
4. Thou shalt not forget that thou dost represent thy country at all times.
5. Thou shall not worry. He who worrieth hath no pleasure, and few matters are fatal.
6. Remember thy passport and knowest where is is at all times. A person without a passport is a person without a country.
7. Blessed is the man that can say thank you in all languages, verily it is worth more than gold.
8. When thou art in Rome do thou as the Romans do! If sorely beset, use thou thy American friendliness and commonsense.
9. Thou shalt not judge the people of a country by one person who hath offended thee.
10. Remember thou art a guest in a strange land. He who treateth his hosts with consideration shall himself be so treated.
