    Being a traveler is much more fun than being a tourist. Tourists just waste money and time. In worst case, they form a ugly perception about the country of his/her origin to locals. Respect locals, try to learn from your trip. It will be more memorable!

    Please, please don't be a tourist when you travel... it is more about the personal journey than the destination.

    While you're traveling, make an effort to get chatting with local people. Don't stare at locals behaving in a manner different to what you're used to; don't treat them like sightseeing objects; and most importantly, don't think they're inferior if they don't have an iPod or have never seen a computer. Real travelers know that people are extraordinarily similar the world over.
