🎒 Neighborhood Travel Tips

Bring a hat for sun protection.

Don’t litter — carry trash until you find a bin.

  • Pack Light: A smaller bag makes moving around easier. Most people wear only half of what they pack.
  • Try Local Food Safely: Street food can be amazing, but look for stalls with long lines and fresh turnover.
  • Stay Curious: Ask questions, try new things, and embrace the unexpected. Travel is about discovery.
