The Ten Commandments of Travel

1. Thou shalt not expect to find things as thou hast at home, for thou hast left home to find things different.
2. Thou shalt not take anything too seriously, for a carefree mind is the start of a good holiday.
3. Thou shalt not let other travelers get on thy nerves, for thou hast paid good money to enjoy thyself.
4. Remember to take half as many clothes as thou thinkest and twice the money.
5. Know at all times where thy passport is, for a person without a passport is a person without a country.
6. Remember that if we had been expected to stay in one place, we would have been created with roots.
7. Thou shalt not worry, for he that worrieth hath no pleasure, and few things are THAT fatal.
8. Remember, in Rome, be prepared to do somewhat as the Romans do.
9. Thou shalt not judge the people of the country by the person who hath given thee trouble.
10. Remember, thou are a guest in other lands and he that treats his host with respect shall be honored.
