Where Am I?

My Expat-terns

52. Book early – Flights, hostels, and work arrangements. Be organized and pay beforehand. For long trips, I’d say schedule a few months in advance.

71. Nothing is more refreshing than a little flirting on the sidewalk with a new friend after a long night of dancing even if you get a bit lost in translation; that’s the cute part.

38. People often travel to escape and start fresh. I’ve done it; I am not ashamed. However unless you are truly nomadic, you will have to return to dwell in familiarity eventually. Always make sure you have a home waiting for you. Of course, “a home” is a loose definition.

8. Fried Haitian food is delicious, but proceed with caution (similar to #1).

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!

47. Cherish every moment before a long journey. Savor every amenity you possess, but also get drunk on the excitement that is about to unfold. The intoxication of the pre-adventure process is so joyous.

110. Tel Aviv is literally the gayest place ever. Ever. As in, there are so many gay people.

70. I have met a handful of older Czech men who have just scared me shitless. I don’t know about you people, but when an old Czech man starts rambling on to me about chakras, fascism, and his deceased family, I get the fuck out of there!

55. It’s best not to be a picky eater when traveling, and personally, I think this is true about life in general. It just makes everything so much more complicated. And, complications during travel should be avoided even if they are small. It’s not the end all be all though.

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.
