1. Why
To get more from a trip
Experience more authentic culture
2. Where
Some places are easier to live like a local
2.1. Budget
The cheaper, the better
The most famous cities are usually the most expensive
Biggest cost: Flight, use the travel reward card
Figure out a budget
Right before or after the “busy” season would be helpful
2.2. What to do
City or wilderness? Night or daytime?
Follow your heart
Some cities are full of tourist, do some research
Friendly locals: ignore the stereotype, there are good and bad people everywhere
3. Fit in
There are all kinds of thing you should not do, but in fact, you may not offend anyone.
Just be conscious of the people around
