Spring Break is just around the corner and we want to make sure you have the best time ever! So we’ve gathered the Best Travel Tips our students have sent us and put them below to make sure this Spring Break is memorable! Have a look! Watch your drinks! This one is pretty self-explanatory Date a local. What better way to get to know the culture, right? Volunteer! Look for volunteer programs in the places you are staying. Not only is it rewarding, but it's a great way to meet natives and learn about a culture from within! Just go for it! Everything good and bad is a learning experience and they all make great memories! Be flexible and learn to laugh at things when things don't go as planned. Get a towel and a lock. Invest in a pack towel and a small lock. The towel is super lightweight, small and dries fast. And you always need a lock when staying in hostels. Two small things that make a big difference! Go with the flow! Stick to nothing except your budget and your friends! The only plans you really need to keep are the ones that will make your belly full and your memories last! Other than that, be flexible and adventurous with your time. Pack a big scarf. A scarf can be used as a neck warmer, pillow, blanket, hairband, belt, beach cover up, towel, knapsack and handkerchief! Let go! Be happy with the way things happen even if they don't happen as planned. Many obstacles can and will get in your way while traveling and it is important to not let it stop you from enjoying yourself, so don't be afraid to let go. Travel in the now. While photos and videos of your travels are amazing things to have, don't spend your whole experience staring through a lens. Pictures may last longer, but nothing can ever replace a moment entirely. Travel in the now, not in preparation for the future.
