"If you consciously choose to EXPERIENCE a city rather than just visit it, you will take home so much more than just a fond memory." ~Sherry

Embrace the feeling of the city, it's culture and it's people. Notice your reaction to it. You may feel strength, intimidation, inspiration or joy. Engage in conversations with strangers, relish in new experiences and at times quietly observe the activity around you.

Take time to look up.

Notice the stars, the trees, exquisite clouds, the balconies on buildings or rooftop restaurants.

Remaining open to the possibilities of a new city can create tremendous personal growth, spark a new passion, change your perceptions or teach you something about yourself. Taking the time to look up has greatly enriched my traveling adventures.

Need Packing Tips? We've Done It a "Couple of Times!"

I've compiled a travel packing checklist that may help you to not forget anything while packing for an upcoming trip. I especially use this list if I have to pack quickly.

But really, as long as you have your essentials-contacts, glasses and medications you can buy anything you forgot. Remembering that takes a lot of pressure off while packing!
