General Guidelines

 

Every vacation destination requires a rearrangement of the own way of life if one wants to enjoy not only the pool landscape in the tourist strongholds of the country.

The real face of the vacation destination opens only the one who leaves the well-worn tourist paths to adjust to the lifestyle of the inhabitants in the everyday life a little.
Who can say goodbye to the normal hygiene conditions will be able to learn completely new taste experiences at the pleasure of the local cooking. Also folkloric events are often different from the events offered in tourist centers.

You should always buy suntan cream or medicine against "Montezumas revenge" in the country you stay, because these are coordinated with the conditions of the host country and achieve the best effect.

Behave so as you also would expect from your guests at home.
