Preparing for a trip:
Empty your pockets
Count coup
Pull apart the wash-bundled paper for pale glyphs
Sort coins to little ruin piles
Clothes are paramount
Only travel naked by boat
Footwear is imperative
A loose and fatalistic attitude is like the wind at your back
Saint Christopher takes up too much space
he's pushy besides
Nothing is like a good travel guide:
open immediately
then discard it
Be open in everything except luggage
Be generous of time. Be greedy of experience
Be gregarious with food and music
Be picky with travel companions
Bundle them with wool and coffee
Practice your traveling walk -- long strides
In some places --
look people in the eye
In other places -- dont
This is called organization
or lack thereof. I heard that once
I walked the other way
Walking is your best friend
a pencil never hurt nobody nor a small knife
Avoid planes unless absolutely necessary
Roll your clothes Roll your towel
Roll your coins Roll with the punches
gather no moss
Reserve space for soveniers
Only bring home small stones and good rugs
Travel by rug if you can
