SEOUL: tips on trips 21082014

seoul
never ending story..
lesson learnt

1. always plan ur vacation thoroughly, at least the night before the day you go out
2. having pamplet in hand is good but before you go you should have a scheduled plan and iternary..how to do this? check out blog..travel blog..personal blog etc.
3. subway map should always be in hand
4. prepare emergency food in case of hunger and unable to find a 'place' to eat
5. plan the items you want to buy and do your budget!
6. plan your prayers, how, where n when..
7. get off your room as early as possible! even if you have a child, train them to get up early. it is such a waste going on a vacation but miss the early morning air.. anywhere in the world.. the morning breeze is always the best.
8. always have a bottle carried along for washing (after pee) since most of the toilet have tissue papers only and no bidet.
