An Easy Way to Share Your Travel Tips

You contacted us saying "You should tell your readers this..."

...or... "This is the credit card I carry..."

...or... "I pack this..."

The truth is, we can't think of everything. Some of your tips are for things we already do, cards we already carry, but we haven't mentioned those tips yet.

So we wanted to make it easier to help us out, we're asking you to sit right down at your computer and Share Your Tips Here. 

That link will get you right to the form to start writing!

We've Collect Tips Anywhere We Can Get Them

Once when we were in Lahore, Pakistan we happened to meet an older traveler having tea with the director of the Kipling Museum. We were invited to join them.

John was driving from England to the south of India. He had been making that trip once every two years since he retired. In the alternate years, he made the trip north from India back to England.

We called him John the Harvard Vagabond. (Yes, he was from England, but he had gone to Harvard.... part of a great story for later.)

He had many words of advice and travel tips....

Travel Tips From John The Harvard Vagabond

• Always find your hotel by about 4 or 5 o’clock... but for sure before dark.
  
  The times we’ve had the most problems finding a hotel were when we didn’t heed that advice. We never kept in touch with our teatime friend, but we have quoted him on many occasions when we’re driving down a lonely back road hoping a hotel would show up around the next bend.
• Always carry some food and water in the car.... you just never know when you won't be able to find a restaurant.
• Always keep the gas tank more than half full. It’s just easier than worrying that you’ll never find another gas station in time... or that your credit card might not work!
  
• Always ask to see the room before you take it.
People are happy to accommodate this request, and we've found they are not offended if you say that the room is not quite right and you would like to keep looking.

We read many travel magazines, and reader travel tips in them often give us the best ideas from the whole magazine.

We have pages where you can write about your travel stories,

...share funny signs,

...and tell us about your recent travels, but we wanted a place for your travel tips.... and we're serious...

We want you to share them!  Just a small request... 

We can't really publish a tip with only a couple of words, so write a little something about your tip.  If we get many one or two word tips, we may try to combine them... but in the meantime, see what others have written below.

Now wasn't that simple? We all thank you!

Find a few more travel tips at World Travel Options.  We shared a travel story with this Aussie who loves travel as much as we do.

Happy travels... even if you don't travel the world... just remember that life is a journey... embrace and enjoy it! Judy and Mark
