I know a lot of travelers have very spontaneous personalities… not me. I have a set of guidelines for travel that I follow. Actually I have guidelines that I follow in almost all the important areas in my life (travel, health, relationships etc) and I believe that most other’s do also – perhaps you call them morals – so I guess these are like my morals for travel.
I treat these guidelines for travel in the same way that I treat all of my guidelines in life. I follow them most of the time, but I do not let them get in the way. Everything is flexible.
I find that having guidelines in life has many benefits, the major ones being:
Increasing efficiency (important when your aim is to minimise work time)Saves money (I budget $50us/day max)Helps with decision making (and therefore problem solving)Keeps me healthyBert’s Personal Guidelines for TravelThe guidelines are broken down into various areas.

Never spend more than $20usd on any tourist attraction unless it is something unique to that place which I am unlikely to see anywhere else.
If there is no rush to get from one place to another, never spend over 4 hours on a single journey.
If it is too far to walk take public transport – I very seldom take private transport (such as a taxi).
