Fear Not Frog Leg Soup...
I stole that phrase from a column in Sunday’s LAT Travel section, written by Janet Eastman, in which she lists great travel tips amassed from a collective of 700 students she joined in a Semester at Sea program.
A couple of my favorites:
When traveling in countries with a lot of temples, wear flip-flops to save time taking off your shoes at the entrance.
Carry a fake wallet. In a pinch, throwing this on the ground and backing away can save you a lot of trouble. Just make sure it has enough stuff in it (random papers and a token amount of money) to make it believable long enough for you to get away.
There are many more. A link to the LAT article is right here.
This blog entry is for Ophelia, whose solo treks to far off places such as Croatia and New Zealand are truly an inspiration.
