My Expat-terns

23. Experiencing change when you travel is good, but it comes from within not the influence of others.

44. Try to save travel money. Always have that in mind because funds are essential. Do you really need that other thing right now or can you put your wallet away for when you are in Croatia? Your choice.

43. Remember clothing sizes vary in different regions of the world. A large in Ecuador is not a large from the USA …

60. Pout in the Paris metro system.

113. When it comes to national holidays, independence days and such, remember those who were not the “nationals” who helped build the nation and especially what nations were and still are there.

53. Of course, never forget to embrace uncertainty and the spontaneity of travel: the thrill of adventure.

45. Gaining certain alliances and supporting foreign nations demonstrates great levels of acceptance and fraternity on your behalf, but not everything you pick from other countries is always beneficial or politically correct. For example after living in Chile, I cannot stand the Argentine accent. The rivalry has been ingrained!

56. Weather expectations while traveling can be harmful. Always remember that your destination may not be the sunny paradise you think it will be, so pack appropriately.

92. Do not let your ethno/national-centrism get the best of you. For example, Canadians do celebrate Thanksgiving; it is just in October, not November. If you go to the store Thanksgiving weekend thinking it will be a normal shopping spree, you will be punished for your ignorance when you cannot find any goddamn pecans or rosemary.

74. For some reason, socks and sandals are an acceptable fashion choice in the Czech Republic. Just accept it.
