Many people dream of devoting their lives to traveling to different parts of the world. Visit the well-groomed cities of the old woman of Europe, explore the mysteries of the East, enjoy the sunsets on the island of Bali, plunge into the American consumer paradise and embark on an endless journey to yourself somewhere in the Indian spiritual center. And in each of these wonderful places, you will have to change the time, and perhaps even change an entire era, not only getting used to the new time zone, but also rebuilding according to the course of local time, which, they say, flows differently in different countries.
Instructions
Step 1
Our planet revolves around the Sun and around its axis - we know about this since school years. The Earth makes a complete revolution around its axis for a period of time, which scientists equated to 24 hours. And thanks to the fact that every moment the Earth turns to the Sun with a new side, when dawn comes to some countries, others already go to bed. Therefore, when going on a trip, familiarize yourself in advance with the world map of time zones, as well as the peculiarities of switching to summer and winter time, if applicable in a particular country.
Step 2
If you take a laptop with you on a trip, for example, preferring to always be in touch with your friends, then a special function of the operating system will help you change the time. If you have Windows Vista, go to the system date and time settings. In the window that opens, go to the "Additional clock" tab, check the boxes next to the "Show this clock" option and select the time zone whose time you want to see. From now on, the computer will show the current time in several time zones, and in order to see what time it is, you just need to point or click on the clock in the taskbar. In Windows XP and earlier, you will have to manually change the time zone in which the computer is counting the time.
Step 3
You will also need to change the time to local time in your cell phone. In addition to the standard ability to simply move the clock forward or backward a few hours, some devices provide two good opportunities.
• First, use the Operator Time feature, which will allow your phone to automatically sync with your local time zone.
• Secondly, look for additional functionality in the time settings. Some phones, like computers, allow you to see the time in several cities and countries at once, located in different parts of the world.
