is critical to do research about the country. Research will inform you on the cultural customs the country may have and how to properly adjust. Researching can benefit you on a trip as well. Having a general idea of places and museums you would like to visit on the trip can cut out a lot of time. Be sure to research the language knowing simple words in the language of the country you’re in will benefit you during the trip. For example, in France, they speak French knowing how to say “where is …” can truly help during your travel because you will be asking for directions a lot of the time since the place is unfamiliar to you. Research can help you with the timing of your trip. It’s essential to understand if a country is punctual because being late is seen as a disrespectful to them in some cultures. To avoid this assumption, do research and arrive on time to scheduled events.
