Starting to travel is a cherished dream for some, but why are many people afraid to realize it? Independent travel requires preparation: you need to think over the route, make visas, purchase tickets, a backpack, clothes, shoes and other equipment. And, most importantly, you need to be bold and decide to go on your first journey!
It is necessary
- - route plan;
- - tickets;
- - visas to the countries of interest;
- - guidebook;
- - country map;
- - backpack.
Instructions
Step 1
First of all, travelers think over a route. This is very important, as information about the places you are going to will come in handy on the road. Experienced travelers say that collecting all the necessary information on the countries and cities of interest, finding hotels and hostels where you are going to stay, making a list of attractions and a detailed travel itinerary takes about the same time as the trip itself.
Step 2
On the way, you will most likely need a guidebook and a map. Just in case, all important information, especially information about hotels and hostels, check on the Internet, since the latest data is collected there.
Step 3
Visas and tickets. You should buy tickets in advance, so you can find cheap options. If one visa is required for travel, then it is best to make it in Russia, starting with it (with the exception of visa-free countries or those where the visa is placed upon arrival). But if the route includes a consecutive visit to countries of a certain world region (for example, several countries in Asia), then it is often easier and cheaper to make visas on the road or right at the borders. Find out about this in advance.
Step 4
Equipment. Any traveler needs to put things somewhere. A comfortable travel backpack is best suited for this. Determine the volume based on your own requirements, but remember that too many things can be difficult to carry with you. It is very important to take the right clothes and shoes on your trip, which will not tear or get wet at a difficult moment. Camping equipment manufacturers offer a variety of clothing, footwear and backpacks for travelers in their collections. The advantage of buying gear from a sports store is reliability.
Step 5
The most important thing you need is courage and determination. Going on a trip on your own is scary, but practice shows that this is the most interesting and convenient way to get to know the world.
