All I Need When I Travel




Yemen

I have decided to write what constitutes a good trip.
All I need when I travel is…

Passport/money/ticket/tooth brush

Spoon

Black wool shawl

Reading book

Knitting

Notebook

Pen

Flashlight

Alarm clock

Camera

Lungi

Good conversation

Walks

Cafes

Mountains

A rainy day to relax

A funny guide

Cheap bus transportation

New places

Not to get sick

A stolen kiss

A moment in time

A peaceful sunrise

A romantic sunset

A friendly face

Local song/dance

No mosquitoes

New people

The unusual

A post office

Patience with annoying kids

A hot shower every three days

Decent chocolate

Moments of awe

A church for escape and solitude

Local cuisine

Post cards to write

A local contact

A roof top terrace

A nail clipper

A light load

Comfortable shoes

A reminder to reconfirm flights

No bed bugs

No biting dogs

Some local language

A kind stranger
