<div>
We sat down at an airport café, ordered some food and asked for the check as soon as we got it to save time. We got to the gate in time, and we leaned against the barrier for the moving sidewalk since there were no 2 open seats together. After awhile, we sat on the floor. The announcements said their system was down. Nothing could happen until it came back up. We waited. And waited. Finally, they announced that our flight was cancelled, and we would have to go to the "Need Help" station to rebook. We responded a little sluggishly, but made our way to a line containing at least one planeload of people. By the time we actually reached the hotel room, it was about 3:30am. We determined that we would have to get up around 7:15am to make our flight. With the broken heater baking us, we got very much less than 4 hours of sleep. </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
This is when mistakes get extremely easy to make.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
I don't think you can avoid them all, but here are some easy traps to fall into and how to avoid them.<br />
<br /></div>
<div>
<strong>1.) Don't trust the people you are with.</strong> I pick trustworthy travel companions. They are people that, under normal circumstances, I would follow without question. They have all been intelligent, and most are experienced travelers. Here's the problem: they are as tired as you are, and it's making them dumb. <em>Now, you have to vet everything they say.</em> They don't know where they are going. Check a map or directory. If you are aware of how tired you are, it can be tempting to abdicate and follow someone who <em>seems </em>awake. It's a trap. If you do have to stop someone, though, do it as nicely as possible. No need to start a fight. Likewise, take it easy if someone stops you. This does assume that they've been with you, so you are all equally compromised. If you are with someone who is actually awake and fully functional, listen to them by all means. </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<strong>2.) Don't trust yourself <em>too much</em>. </strong> Did you see how I recommended checking a map or directory? That's because you don't know where you are going either. You need a reference that is not subject to the same mind-melting sleepiness you are feeling. I add "too much" because you are still responsible to make sure you or your companions aren't literally or figuratively going the wrong way. You should all be helping each other make good decisions. If you are traveling solo or in a group, have as many <em>external </em>resources as possible (created or obtained before the trip whilst fully awake): itineraries, apps, maps, audiotours, etc. In general, planning is good because you can make decisions while at your best instead of when you're super tired.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<strong>3. Take care of yourself physically.</strong> Part of the reason you're exhausted is that something has happened to rob you of your ability to do this, but there still may be things you can do. The first thing is hydrate. The second thing is caffeine. If you are feeling aches come on, maybe take some ibuprofen or something. Keep snacks on you to deal with hunger and its side effects. You want to guard your ability to make good decisions as much as possible. <br />
<br /></div>
<div>
<strong>4. If possible, avoid spending money in this state</strong>. I still wonder if it may have been better to get a nicer hotel and spend some money instead of just taking the voucher. A taxi might have been faster than the shuttle. However, these situations just tend to exploit your desire for comfort and sometimes your desperation. Even if we had gotten a taxi and a better hotel, we probably still would have slept for a maximum of 5 hours. As indicated earlier, your reason is compromised. This can also make you a candidate for being ripped off. It's much better to make decisions about spending money when you are fully awake. On a related note, in Rome, don't go with a driver that can get inside the airport. It's more expensive than a taxi outside. We were tired, we took the hit. If you are hungry or thirsty though, it can be worth it to spend a little to take care of yourself. I'm just suggesting you minimize your financial vulnerability here.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<strong>5. Develop character and cultivate experience. </strong> <em>These are long term goals rather than quick fixes and warnings, but they will help you in this situation. </em> I'm a Christian, so I recommend using Biblical methods to develop character. The book itself can help you there. If you have a different philosophy or religion, use it. Patience especially can be useful here since you may be stuck somewhere for a long time. <em>Experience helps because it means that your instincts will become more helpful. </em> You may react just a little faster when needed, even when you're tired. You may be able to judge when someone is trying to mislead you. In general, pursue becoming a person who can handle difficulties in life with increasing rather than decreasing grace and wisdom.</div>

<div>
When I think of generosity, I am reminded of its opposite for some reason. I think of Ebenezer Scrooge. He had so much money but neither used it to improve the lives of the poor who surrounded him nor enjoyed it himself. He sat in the cold and the dark because it was cheap. Why? Why would someone with so much punish themselves and everyone around them like that? I suppose it's simple in Scrooge's case. He viewed the acquisition of money as his purpose. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
But money isn't a purpose. Money is a tool. I think most people understand this in one way or another. People work because they must because they need money to do things like pay rent or buy food.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Generosity isn't just about money. You can give freely of yourself, of your time, of other resources, but I think it's important to remember that it is also about money. Generosity with money means that you see money as a tool and use it for the benefit of others.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Let's temporarily assume that you have enough money that you feel that you can use some of it for the benefit of others. What do you do with that money? I think you should follow your own conscience, but I also want you to consider some of the below questions.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
1. What are the most dire problems facing the world? </div>
<div>
2. What are urgent needs in the world right now?</div>
<div>
3. What are problems in my city?</div>
<div>
4. Is one of my friends or family members doing something that I want to support? </div>
<div>
5. What problems have I seen in my family? </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
An example of the first might be human trafficking or the refugee crisis. From there, you could find <a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?hl=en&q=https://www.ijm.org/&source=gmail&ust=1474123542105000&usg=AFQjCNE26R0npVKyqEfjmwd6kLhgWUWC1w" href="https://www.ijm.org/" target="_blank">IJM</a>, <a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?hl=en&q=http://sharedhope.org/&source=gmail&ust=1474123542105000&usg=AFQjCNFn44qN7KAp95SJnn6F8tLoZnFvIQ" href="http://sharedhope.org/" target="_blank">Shared Hope</a> or <a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?hl=en&q=https://www.samaritanspurse.org/disaster/refugee-crisis-in-europe/&source=gmail&ust=1474123542105000&usg=AFQjCNGCOzEifU4quuz16_cEhxvys_sYXQ" href="https://www.samaritanspurse.org/disaster/refugee-crisis-in-europe/" target="_blank">Samaritan's Purse</a> and send one or more of them a donation. An example of the second might be an earthquake or a flood. <a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?hl=en&q=http://www.redcross.org/&source=gmail&ust=1474123542105000&usg=AFQjCNF-ZxUytm4CUtUu9vizlcn2FPXLUg" href="http://www.redcross.org/" target="_blank">The Red Cross</a> often responds to that kind of crisis. If you are interested in Christian organizations that address crises, there are also <a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?hl=en&q=https://go.efca.org/ministries/reachglobal/crisis-response&source=gmail&ust=1474123542105000&usg=AFQjCNHVjCIhnASoohv3sp9RNc_Ag6zQ7Q" href="https://go.efca.org/ministries/reachglobal/crisis-response" target="_blank">EFCA Crisis Response</a> and <a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?hl=en&q=https://www.samaritanspurse.org/what-we-do/international-crisis-response/&source=gmail&ust=1474123542105000&usg=AFQjCNGvhW6jYUcV0xi1AiF1jKc3V1Fhrg" href="https://www.samaritanspurse.org/what-we-do/international-crisis-response/" target="_blank">Samaritan's Purse</a> (Samaritan's Purse does A LOT). I will say that crises like these do tend to get an influx of donations. A local problem might be homelessness, and then you could Google to find a local homeless shelter (like <a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?hl=en&q=http://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/dfs/factsheets/kkh_familyshelter_factsheet.htm&source=gmail&ust=1474123542105000&usg=AFQjCNGpRyFUIooeCYDebVpsuLxXCvVfaA" href="http://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/dfs/factsheets/kkh_familyshelter_factsheet.htm" target="_blank">this one</a> in Fairfax, VA). I am happy to say that #4 is pretty common for me. Sometimes I support individuals, and sometimes it's how I find an organization I really like (e.g. <a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?hl=en&q=https://www.asianhope.org/&source=gmail&ust=1474123542105000&usg=AFQjCNE12Qpd5kqkUovx_yM7Ckf6HfHFkQ" href="https://www.asianhope.org/" target="_blank">Asian Hope</a>). A problem in your family might be a particular illness like cancer or Alzheimer's. Most major health problems have their own organizations that fund research and/or provide support to families affected (e.g. <a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?hl=en&q=http://www.alz.org/&source=gmail&ust=1474123542105000&usg=AFQjCNHO6nv6N-MMFgflK3xw5TXbukuFgg" href="http://www.alz.org/" target="_blank">Alzheimer's Association</a>). These organizations are just examples, but you can actually check out any charity you pull up in a Google search with <a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?hl=en&q=https://www.charitynavigator.org/&source=gmail&ust=1474123542105000&usg=AFQjCNGZmZf5x5fFydbFTjv7x8DQSUz81A" href="https://www.charitynavigator.org/" target="_blank">Charity Navigator</a>. Just because you are being generous doesn't mean that you have to give blindly.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
There are also a lot of ways to creatively show generosity when it comes to personal interactions, but sometimes it's hard to offer money without injuring someone's pride. And people who are comfortable asking for it are sometimes...parasitic. These situations vary widely, but I would just say use your judgment to do what's best for the person, and don't be an enabler. If you believe in God, this is a good place for prayer. If you find yourself sucked into a situation you think might be toxic, I recommend reading <em><a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?hl=en&q=https://www.amazon.com/Boundaries-When-Take-Control-Your/dp/0310585902&source=gmail&ust=1474123542105000&usg=AFQjCNHA1gXtDj_XFO0SUX-jObBdh7XWSA" href="https://www.amazon.com/Boundaries-When-Take-Control-Your/dp/0310585902" target="_blank">Boundaries</a></em>, which discusses healthy boundaries in relationships.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So far, this discussion has been about a hypothetical situation in which you have enough money that you feel that you can use some of it for the benefit of others. What if you don't? </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This is where things are going to get religious. I've already mentioned some Christian charities and prayer; it's pretty obvious that I am into Jesus and the Bible and such. I still think that a lot of principles of generosity and the global problems I've mentioned will make sense to non-Christians too. We are getting to a place where I think the roads diverge. Basically, the Bible tells followers of God to give a tenth of their income to God. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So, if you're a Christian who doesn't make a lot of money, you are still supposed to tithe. In fact, some people interpret "<a href="https://www.openbible.info/topics/first_fruits" target="_blank">firstfruits</a>" as meaning that you give to God first, so this is 10% of your gross income, not net. Faith in this situation means that you trust God that He is not asking for too much, and He'll take care of you. Writing this out, I can see how you might not like it, but I have to share why it's so easy for me to write this and believe it. My family did not have buckets of money when I was growing up, but my parents always taught me tithing was important, including the pre-tax thing. My parents gave even when they weren't making much money and even when they were in <em>full time ministry</em>, and...everything was okay. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I know Jews and Muslims have their own standards for giving. If you're world view doesn't give you a number, I think you should come up with your own. I think some people just give when the mood strikes, but I do not think that is the right thing to do. I think you'll accomplish a lot more by giving consistently, especially if you can afford it.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Now, if you aren't a Christian or you are a Christian who regularly gives 10% or more of your gross income, you can get back to travel blogging or rewatching <em>Stranger Things </em>or whatever you were doing, because I am going yell at my fellow believers for a bit. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Guys, the statistics* are fairly damning. Less than 10% of us are "tithing," and, on average, we are "tithing" less than 10%. If you are truly struggling, I understand. I would still encourage you to trust in God and tithe anyway, but I understand if you can't take that step. The statistics on wealthy Christians are horrifying. I passionately hope these statistics are inaccurate. Only 1% of Christian families making $75,000 a year or more tithe. Guys, that's really not okay.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
According to a study from 2000, that missing tithe amounts to $139 billion.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
That could send about 3 million people to a 4-year <a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?hl=en&q=http://nces.ed.gov/FastFacts/display.asp?id%3D76&source=gmail&ust=1474123542105000&usg=AFQjCNG8PyLc3WJkRtxe6zlZoJuAAGCoIQ" href="http://nces.ed.gov/FastFacts/display.asp?id=76" target="_blank">college</a>. That could construct over a million <a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?hl=en&q=http://africanwellfund.org/FAQ.html&source=gmail&ust=1474123542105000&usg=AFQjCNFyxuNPkPRsbgx2GUMObejSe5yGjw" href="http://africanwellfund.org/FAQ.html" target="_blank">wells in Africa</a> (the nice ones with the submersible electric pump and the diesel-powered generator). This money could feed a lot of hungry people. This money could fund a lot of missionaries. This money could provide a lot of <a href="http://www.bloodwater.org/solutions">medical care</a>. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
And all that comes from just 10%.</div>

<div>
Marriage changes a lot of things. If it didn't, it probably wouldn't be worth it. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<strong>I feel loved all the time. </strong> I feel loved unconditionally by my husband. I feel that he accepts me. I feel that he is on my side. I say "I feel," because it is one thing for it to be true, but another for it to be <em>felt</em>. I understand it on an emotional level.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
He is also honest with me and leans on me; I am honest with him and lean on him. Not only is it good for us to be honest with each other, but it is an absolute necessity since our lives are so tightly wound together.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This means a lot of things, but one thing it means is that I do not crave those things from other people. <strong>I don't need anyone else to share things with. I don't need anyone else to make me feel loved.</strong></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<strong>The truth is that my relationship with my husband makes a lot of my other relationships unnecessary. </strong></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
In fact, it means that, by comparison, some relationships become painful. With most other people, I feel that I am in a constant state of proving myself. Why would I choose to do that instead of being with my husband who loves me?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<strong>On the other hand, if I choose to maintain a friendship, it is not because I need attention from you. </strong> It's not because I am lonely and just crave love and acceptance. It's not because I need to unload verbally on someone. <strong>If I choose to maintain a relationship, it is because there is something special about you or between us that I don't want to lose, something so special <em>I am willing to give up time with my husband to be with you. </em></strong></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
With regards to work, it means there is someone at home waiting for me.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
With regards to family, it means that I have more of it, and my time now belongs in part to them. I'm lucky, so I enjoy being with them, but it does mean that I now have more time commitments. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
With regard to serving my community, it means that it has to be worth it. I love teaching ESOL as a volunteer, but it is hard to be away from my husband. Nonetheless, most of the time, I come home energized and excited to talk about my students. <strong>Honestly, helping people is one of the few good reasons for me to be away from my husband.</strong></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Not everyone's marriage is like mine. In fact, I believe every marriage is different. But I didn't understand how my relationships and feelings would change, and I felt compelled to write this about my experience.</div>
</div>

The Colosseum is legendary. Seeing it as I stepped out of the metro station literally stunned me. Unfortunately, I found the interior rather underwhelming and depressing. It is a monument to death and little else. The exterior was the most amazing, and I highly recommend seeing it, but it is perhaps unnecessary to get inside. It is your decision though. To get in, there is a line to buy tickets, with a separate, shorter, faster line to pick up tickets. There is another line (more like a mob) to get through to the actual site (see the final image). We used <a href="http://www.coopculture.it/en/colosseo-e-shop.cfm" target="_blank">this site</a> to buy tickets, and we used the Rick Steves audio tour app (which is free). I will add that the tickets also cover the Roman Forum and the Palatine Hill, which were both well worth the time, cost and effort. They do have their own separate line. Getting tickets ahead of time is strongly recommended by pretty much everybody.<br />

We chose to book a tour for the Vatican Museums, and we decided on the Vatican Early Morning Tour from What A Life Tours (<a href="https://www.whatalifetours.com/shop/vatican-tours/vatican-early-morning-tour/" target="_blank">link</a>). Much like the Colosseum, this is one of the sites that gets incredibly crowded, so most sources recommend a) getting tickets ahead of time and b) going early in the morning. When it comes to the place itself, it's overwhelming. There is so much there. It's dense with the art of centuries. I'll let the pictures speak for me.<br />

It was meant to be the tomb of Cestius, but, for whatever reason, his body is not inside. It was built sometime between 12 and 18 BC, and can be seen from the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protestant_Cemetery,_Rome" target="_blank">Cimitero Acattolico</a>. The Cimitero Acattolico is the cemetery for non-Catholics in Rome. Among many others, it holds the remains of Keats and Shelley.</div>

The cemetery is also adjacent to a cat sanctuary and the site where Julius Caesar was murdered. Rome is fairly dense with history.<br />

<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Maria_in_Trastevere" target="_blank">Santa Maria in Trastevere</a> was possibly the most surprising thing I saw in Rome. I had never heard of it. It just happened to be a stop on our <a href="http://www.eatingitalyfoodtours.com/rome/tours/twilight-trastevere/" target="_blank">first food tour</a>. I know very little about it, but it was a beautiful mix of different styles and time periods. </div>

5 days until we leave for Italy! Here's what's going on with us: <br />
<br />
<br />
<strong>Cleaning!</strong><br />
Actually, we got lucky on this one. My sister-in-law stayed with us last weekend, so we cleaned like mad to prepare for her visit. Comprehensive cleaning isn't necessary before a trip, but it's nice to come back to a clean house. The key bits still have to be taken care of: get rid of any food that will spoil and take out the trash.<br />
<br />
<br />
<strong>Shopping!</strong><br />
This is another thing that doesn't always come before a trip, but we are filling in the gaps. Particularly, my husband wanted to get a small bag to carry around essentials. He decided on the <a href="http://travelon%20anti-theft%20urban%20e/W%20Tablet%20Messenger" target="_blank">Travelon </a><span itemprop="name"><a href="http://travelon%20anti-theft%20urban%20e/W%20Tablet%20Messenger" target="_blank">Anti-Theft Urban E/W Tablet Messenger</a>. I guess we'll find out how it stands up to Roman pickpockets :) </span><br />
<span itemprop="name"><br /></span><br />
<span itemprop="name"><strong>Final reservations!</strong></span><br />
<span itemprop="name">We are booking a couple things now that either a) I procrastinated on or b) we weren't sure about. Particularly, we're getting Colosseum/Forum/Palatine Hill tickets. I think <a href="http://www.coopculture.it/en/colosseo-e-shop.cfm" target="_blank">this</a> is the correct site for getting those tickets in advance. I just read a horror story about the lines you are punished with if you wait to get those tickets there, so that needs to get sorted now. We're also probably doing a day trip to Tuscany for a wine tour.</span><br />
<span itemprop="name"><br /></span><br />
<span itemprop="name"><strong>Talking to the B&B!</strong></span><br />
<span itemprop="name">From what I can tell, B&Bs and rentals want to know when you are showing up in general. Unlike hotels, they don't have 24 hour reception, so they kinda need to know that. That also means that we needed to make the call on bus or taxi for our arrival. For time and ease, taxis win. For price, buses win. Note that the <a href="http://www.romapass.it/?l=en" target="_blank">Roma Pass</a> does not help you with transportation to or from the airport. We're probably going to skip the Roma Pass altogether since they only last 2 or 3 days.</span><br />
<span itemprop="name"><br /></span><br />
<span itemprop="name"><strong>Even more research!</strong></span><br />
<span itemprop="name">Just because I did some before doesn't mean there isn't more to learn now. I am still learning important things even in the 11th hour.</span><br />
<span itemprop="name"><br /></span><br />
<span itemprop="name"><strong>Empty and charge the camera!</strong></span><br />
<span itemprop="name">I don't use my actual camera often, so the battery was dead, and it still had my Scotland pictures on it. I just finished charging it and clearing out the old pictures to make space.</span><br />
<span itemprop="name"><br /></span><br />
<span itemprop="name">This weekend is also pretty much reserved for trip preparation. Laundry is high on that list. 5 DAYS!</span><br />

<br />
I am trying to find the best possible tour of the Vatican Museums. I love TripAdvisor, but it is not as helpful about tours as it is about accommodations. It can be pretty confusing researching your options. They tend to be organized by what you are trying to see, and, sometimes, even when it looks like a specific tour company is listed, there are insufficient details to book. That said, it's a place to dig, and I prefer to book some things in advance, so here I am. By here, I mean TripAdvisor.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>WHAT TO LOOK FOR:</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong></strong><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>1. An Early Start Time</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
From what I have read so far, the crowds and lines at the Vatican Museums can get insane. The research I've done suggests getting there early so you can avoid the <em>massive waves of tourists</em>. I just don't want my experience of some of the most famous works of art in the world tainted by a jostling, noisy, sweaty mob or spending many moons in a long line. Lines might be my least favorite thing...aside from human rights violations.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>2. A Decent Price </strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
These tours get costly, so <em>compare</em>. Make sure you find a price you are willing to pay, but remember that this is very possibly an epic life experience. Try find a good tour for a good price. Also, personally, I think private tours are overrated, so I opt for group tours.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>3. The Right Amount of Time</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
These tour seriously vary in terms of time they spend on you. They can be 1.5 hours or all day. If you have kids or older people in your group, you may want to pick a shorter tour. If you really want to squeeze everything out of the experience, make sure you are spending enough time looking at and learning about what you are there to see. I am personally leaning towards 4 hours, but part of that is not wanting to deal with a full day of crowds. We are also staying close by, so we can go back. Entrance to Vatican Museums (also Sistine Chapel, Raphael's Rooms, etc.) is free on the last Sunday of every month, so we can go back after we've had our tour if we want.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>4. Skip the Line</strong> <br />
The other options are more like general guidelines to work with. This is something that should more or less be in the title of your tour. There are a lot of tours that offer this option, so why wait?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>SOME OPTIONS: </strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I am not selling these, it was just trickier to find these details than I would prefer, so I wanted to share with you all:</div>

The Syria peace talks have had some recent help from the Russian withdrawal, but they still face obstacles. The government representatives are still refusing direct talks, but, in my humble opinion the most serious are the complexities of representation and the presidency.<br />
<br /><br />
The only parties at the table are the government and an opposition umbrella group called the High Negotiations Committee (HNC). The absence of IS is understandable, and possibly even beneficial. They have not shown an interest in peace, and a common enemy can motivate the other parties to come together. My chief concern is the absence of the Kurds. The Kurds have been formidable foes of IS, they control a sizable chunk of territory in the north, and they are very possibly on the brink of creating a representative government within that territory. That said, they may also be on the brink of war with Turkey. Also, according to a BBC map, the government held territories and the rebel held territories are all concentrated near the Western border. Geographically, it makes sense for them to address their hostile neighbors first, before trying to address Syria as a whole. In other words, these talks cannot bring peace to all of Syria, but they may be able to bring something like peace to Western Syria. I also think it would be better to be friends with the Kurds rather than enemies. It is generally better to have one enemy instead of two. <br />
<br /><br />
The problem of the presidency is simple to explain, but difficult to resolve. The opposition demands that <a href="http://www.bbc.com/news/10338256" target="_blank">Bashar Al-Assad</a> step down, and the government refuses. It's basic but unmovable problems like this that lead to civil war in the first place and keep people in conflict for decades. <br />
<br /><br />
The peace talks still have promise, but there are harsh differences of opinion that are being addressed and voices being left out of the conversation. While the absence of the Kurds may simplify things in the short-term, it may cause problems later. The leadership of the nation is hotly contested. The government continues to support Assad, but the rebels do not accept him as a leader. The nation seems determined to be divided. Peace is still possible, but possibly distant.<br />

So one of the things I always check before my flights is the carry-on baggage allowance. I am going to start this list with the airlines I am flying on next, but I hope to expand it out to be pretty comprehensive. </div>

<br />
So this is the worst election ever. I am constantly pulled in a dozen directions, and now I can be grateful that eleven of them aren't the election. <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<strong>The Drabblecast</strong><br />
Listen to this podcast and experience some creativity. Then feel bad either because you listened to a tragic story or because you are so incredibly devoid of talent that you just ramble to yourself on the Internet.<br />
<br />
<br />
<strong>I just want to save tons of money and have the leanest budget </strong><br />
So I use all these apps to keep my budget updated, and I've started selling stuff on the Internet. I try to balance out unexpected costs with cuts in other areas.<br />
<br />
<br />
<strong>But I also want to go everywhere and buy everything</strong><br />
Keeping trip costs down in the first world country is difficult, which is why there are so many blogs that talk about how to do it. I would also really like to buy 2-3 long sleeve tees and 2 pairs of shoes. And basically a whole new wardrobe. I never would because A) I couldn't live with myself and B) now that I share my budget with someone, I would just be filled with shame and humiliation. <br />
<br />
<br />
<strong>And I most definitely want to be strong</strong><br />
But also I am tired and many of the paths to fitness are expensive. Awesomely enough, though, my husband and I have just started hitting our tiny neighborhood gym together. I get to work out, and I don't have the gross feeling of ditching my husband. He was also relieved that I am not the kind of person who socializes whilst working out. I will be on this machine with my headphones in my ears. Wave if you require my attention (which you should only need if you are ready to go).<br />
<br />
<br />
<strong>And I want to eat well</strong><br />
So there are almost always fruits or veggies in the mix with a minimum of carbs.<br />
<br />
<br />
<strong>But also healthy food is expensive, and unhealthy food is delicious and often easy</strong><br />
Cereal and toast and pasta are SO easy and tasty. Fish is kinda pricey, especially the good wild-caught stuff. We got a bunch of microwave stuff and heat and serve pizzas and it cost like $70 for a week. <br />

The idea of a small and efficient collection of clothing is not new, but it seems like the "capsule wardrobe" has gotten pretty popular. I totally dig this idea, but it has the potential to create a lot of waste. Several people have talked about and written about how clothing has become less expensive so people buy more, create clutter and waste money on cheap stuff that falls apart (hence the "slow fashion" movement). This is still obviously a first world problem. Talking about having too much stuff just feels fundamentally gross. People who have struggled with scarcity tend to horde things, even to their detriment. But let's look at this. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
What if you build your capsule wardrobe around what you like right now? How fast do trends change? Do you change your mind sometimes? Are you wasting clothes by purging stuff that you'll you'll just end up buying a slightly different version of later? Maybe you have a constant style, so you're more capable of a commitment like this, but, if your tastes change, maybe it's worth just keeping some stuff in a box or just shoved to the back of the closet. Think about it. And don't use this as an excuse to throw out all your stuff and buy a bunch of new things. Be cool.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
What happens to the stuff you decide doesn't fit in the capsule? Lots of people donate clothes and that is absolutely a good answer. Do you need some cash? Maybe use eBay, <a href="https://poshmark.com/" target="_blank">Poshmark</a> or <a href="https://www.thredup.com/" target="_blank">ThredUp</a>. ThredUp isn't going to give you much money, but they sell, donate or recycle everything, so nothing will truly be wasted. Poshmark or eBay will probably get you more money, but it will be more work. From my limited experience, I prefer using the eBay app to the site; I just think it's faster and easier. Again, donating is also a great option. There are Goodwills, second hand stores and donation bins all over the place. All that said, don't try to sell or donate stuff that is in no condition to be worn. Be cool.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This is pretty much the way I talk to myself. I am trying to narrow down my closet and drawers to just things that I really like, but I am keeping some stuff in a box that I think I may want later. Some things have gone on Poshmark and eBay since I am pretty sure I will never wear them again. If we decide to move, anything I don't love is getting purged, though. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I've also built <a href="https://www.pinterest.com/cwthornhill/capsule-vision-board/" target="_blank">an inspiration board on Pinterest</a> so that I can get a more cohesive sense of my own style. I like a lot of different stuff, and I hate a lot of different stuff. I get pulled in a lot of directions. It's been fun to build, but it's also a good way for me to focus so that I don't impulse buy something that I don't need or doesn't go with anything I own. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This is a long rant, but I feel like the capsule wardrobe appeals to travelers. Most of us are already trying to pack light, and having a portable, packable life appeals to us. We see the attraction of minimalism. But, like travel, it can be easy to waste money or resources. Everything should be carefully considered.<br />
<br />
<br />
P.S. If you are looking at more detailed rules on actually building a capsule wardrobe, a lot has already been written. Here are a couple articles I've read: <br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
It's no secret that I am not a skilled photographer. I've taken some pictures I like, and there are some that are absolutely terrible. That last wedding...there are some no amount of editing will save. However, I know a girl who does take good pictures. She happens to be the girl I visited in Japan and Scotland (and one of my bridesmaids). I sat down with her and talked to her about how she got into photography and how she gets good pictures (all the ones in this post are hers). </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>Yes, Training Helps</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Even though we were <em>roommates</em> in college, I did not realize she took a photography class. So she does have some technical knowledge and it would probably do all of us noobs some good if we took a class.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>It's Not All About the ISO Setting</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
However, just because you have the technical knowledge, that does not mean you know how to compose a good photo. One of the things she kept coming back to was that people seem to have trouble grasping that the camera is the most flexible thing in the equation. You can move it anywhere you want. Moving people is harder. Moving monuments is much harder. Move the camera.<br />

<br />
<b>Art History</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Emily's education is in Art History. I also think that having a history of viewing, appreciating and analyzing art has helped her develop a sense of style and composition. You shouldn't try to write if you don't read, maybe your only exposure to photography shouldn't be your own? She didn't loudly disagree with my theory, so I am totally right.

<b>Balancing Quality and Portability</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Good cameras can help you take good pictures, but they are bulky and delicate. A good camera means another bag. Some travelers are pretty hardcore about traveling light (me). Smartphones can take pretty good pictures now, although it is a good idea to specifically look for that in a cell if it's going to be an important feature to you. How do you decide when to take a big, fancy camera, and when do you stick with a svelte phone or camera? Have you been there before? Are you going back? Stick with something small. Is it a brand new place? Is it possible you'll never be back? Take the monster lens beast. Is it somewhere stunning? Are you going to use the term "grandeur" to describe it? Are you going to be shooting from a distance? Take the best thing you can to capture it. For me, the big camera is too expensive right now, but I really like this methodology.<br />

Europe continues to be flooded with immigrants, and they are trying to work with Turkey to take some of the pressure off the destination countries. Some highlights of the current situation: <br />
<br />
<br />
- The EU wants Turkey to take back thousands of migrants who do not qualify for asylum.<br />
- The EU wants to find a way to slow the flow of migrants. Many leave Turkey, enter Greece and then either remain in Greece or make their way further into Europe.<br />
- Turkey is taking this opportunity to negotiate for EU membership or at least some of the perks (e.g. visa-free access for Turkish citizens to the EU's vise-free zone).<br />
- Turkey wants additional financial aid.<br />
- Both the EU and Turkey seem willing to transfer refugees from Turkey to Europe if they qualify for asylum.<br />
- The UK is flatly refusing to participate in an EU asylum plan.<br />
- Turkey's upper hand is unsettling because the government has become more and more politically oppressive. For example: "On Friday, a Turkish court <a class="story-body__link" href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-35729114">ordered the seizure of the opposition journal</a>, increasing fears for media freedom. Two days later it was <a class="story-body__link" href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-35739547">publishing pro-government articles</a>." In another situation, the EU might put political pressure on Turkey to free its press, but, currently, Turkey has the leverage.<br />
- Meanwhile, the migrants continue to face hardship. The luckier ones face boredom and long food lines. <br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<strong>Update 3/8/2016 11:13am:</strong><br />
New plan would mean that all migrants arriving in Greece from Turkey would be returned and for each Syrian sent back, a Syrian in Turkey would be resettled in the EU. Amnesty flatly objects, and many have shown concern that this move is, in fact, illegal.<br />

<br />
<strong>Update 3/9/2016 10:02am</strong><br />
Macedonia has closed its border with Greece to migrants. <br />

<strong>Update 3/21/2016</strong><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
I managed to completely forget to mention something helpful and free for travelers:</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<strong>Duolingo</strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Practice Italian on my morning bus ride? Yes, please. Let's talk:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<strong>PROS</strong><br />
- Free<br />
- Daily reminders and goals <br />
- Practice includes listening, reading, writing, and speaking<br />
- Phone app format + online options make the lessons flexible <br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhm-FTmPjfXH-MxqGrEIgH0q1WOiJ8pWt7vkIo2xFIYmtHBEjYY2xPi-JpaTfeozFuhC6ayg0uyDCgK30sD_5I5m4UBaZQhfR5Qb7_tG6PiU8DsD5ppOKneF1riV5kCUB2u-1WjBfNs3fU/s1600/IMG_0247.PNG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhm-FTmPjfXH-MxqGrEIgH0q1WOiJ8pWt7vkIo2xFIYmtHBEjYY2xPi-JpaTfeozFuhC6ayg0uyDCgK30sD_5I5m4UBaZQhfR5Qb7_tG6PiU8DsD5ppOKneF1riV5kCUB2u-1WjBfNs3fU/s320/IMG_0247.PNG" width="179" /></a><br />
<br />
<strong>CONS</strong><br />
- Limited languages: There are several, but Hebrew and Arabic are both missing (which I care about).<br />
- The sound effects are loud and the voices are quiet. The disparity isn't too difficult to deal with, but it's a little annoying.<br />
- Phone format means you can practice on public transit and such, but that means you'll probably turn off the microphone stuff, meaning you won't practice talking. You means me.<br />
<br />
If the language you want is supported, I recommend getting this app. Even if you end up hating it (and I don't know why you would), it's free. I just love that I can incorporate language learning into my daily life so easily.<br />

<br />
Italy is famous for food. Originally, I thought this meant that we could pretty much stumble into any random door and find delicious food. Guess what? My research has persuaded me that this is not the case. <br />
<br />
Italy does have great food, but, since it is flooded with tourists, it is also easy to exploit the tourist population by simply having a good location without having to make good food or charge reasonable prices. I've found a couple warning signs to look for that will hint at a tourist trap: <br />
<br />
<strong>1. Menus are available in more than 2 languages</strong><br />
It's not unusual for a menu to be available in English and Italian, but when you start seeing more languages, it may mean that they are targeting out-of-towners rather than repeat customers.<br />
<br />
<strong>2. It's RIGHT next to a major attraction </strong><br />
I'm not saying that the food will be mediocre and overpriced just because it's right next to something famous...but it's a solid warning sign. From what I've seen, the good restaurants are spread all over the city, but the Testaccio and Trastevere neighborhoods seem to have higher concentrations of places that locals want to eat and shop. These are more removed from Vatican City, the Colosseum, the Pantheon, the Forum, etc.<br />
<br />
As to finding the right places to eat, my love and I are cheating and taking 2 <a href="http://www.eatingitalyfoodtours.com/" target="_blank">Eating Italy</a> food tours. I'm sure I'll have more to say after the tour. If you don't want to splurge on a tour, I've found a couple links that might be useful: <br />

Refills are not free (As far as I know, this is a general rule in Europe.)<br />

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
American food can be really good. It can also be bland and forgettable. I've developed a near constant desire for "ethnic food". This means that I want Ethiopian, Thai, Chinese, Mexican (ok Tex Mex)...anything that can give me more than a good burger. <a href="http://thirdcultureshock.blogspot.com/2015/06/top-10-bento-recipes.html">I've posted about bento before</a>, and that is definitely one way to get easy, healthy flavor into your life. I've also come across other recipes that give me the flavors I am craving without having to pay for a night out or spend a full day in the kitchen.<br />
<br />
<strong>Frozen Gyoza/Potstickers/Dumplings</strong><br />
We'll start with the easiest and the least healthy (besides instant ramen)! These may vary in quality and availability, but, if you have an Asian grocery store, check the freezer section for these. Remember to make sure the directions are in English. <a href="http://smittenkitchen.com/blog/2011/12/scallion-meatballs-with-soy-ginger-glaze/">The soy-ginger glaze from this post</a> is delicious dipping sauce. It's infinitely superior to just soy or teriyaki sauce, and you can keep it in the fridge...indefinitely?<br />
<br />
<strong>Middle Eastern Salad</strong><br />
One of the things I've seen in Israel and Greece is this salad:<br />
<br />
1 each Yellow and/or Red and/or Green Peppers <br />
1-2 Tomato(es)<br />
1 Onion<br />
1 Cucumber<br />
I cup Olives<br />
Olive Oil <br />
Lemon Juice <br />
Feta <br />
<br />
I am not a big fan of cucumber or raw onion, so I leave them out if I make it. All you really do it cut them up and mix them together. These proportions are very much estimated, buy, chop and mix according to your taste. For something even simpler, Palestinian <em>salat</em> is just diced tomato, diced cucumber, sliced green onion, lemon juice and olive oil. Both versions are fresh, flavorful and taste great alongside marinated grilled chicken.<br />
<br />
<strong>African Peanut Soup</strong><br />
I actually stumbled across this looking for a sweet potato stew after seeing <em>Hector and the Search for Happiness</em>. From what little I have found, the stew I was looking for is pretty labor intensive (and we probably don't have a big enough pot). On the other hand, <a href="http://cookieandkate.com/2013/west-african-peanut-soup/">this version</a> is easy, tasty and hearty. It does take awhile to simmer, but you really can just dump ingredients in a pot. We also keep a stash of frozen rice for bento, so we serve it over that. I always feel full after, but in a clean way. It's difficult to tell how healthy something really is these days, but I feel healthy after eating this. It also mostly uses stuff that you probably have (peanut butter, onion, something green, rice, sriracha, etc.).<br />
<br />
<strong>Flank Steak with Chimichurri </strong><br />
If you are cooking for two and looking for a cookbook, get <em><a href="http://www.amazon.com/One-Pan-Two-Plates-Weeknight/dp/1452106703">One Pan Two Plates</a></em>. I use it almost constantly. The author really understands what flavors go together, and her recipe or flank steak with chimichurri, potatoes, yellow squash and peas is a great example. The sauce is SO flavorful and tangy. Flank steak can be pricey, but, if you are going to splurge, this is a good place to do it. It really explodes with a Beringer Cabernet Sauvignon or another big red wine like a red Zinfandel.<br />
<br />

<br />
<strong>Trader Joe's Indian Dinner</strong><br />
And now we're back to cheating. Get the following from your TJ's freezer: <br />
<br />
Palak Paneer <br />
Channa Masala<br />
Garlic Naan<br />
[<a href="http://justbento.com/handbook/bento-basics/how-freezing-preportioned-rice" target="_blank">Frozen rice</a>]<br />
<br />
I get giant bags of rice from the local Asian grocery, and then I cook and freeze them in individual servings. Cook all that stuff according to the directions. Put a little rice in each bowl. Top the rice with the palak paneer and channa masala. Serve the naan on the side (one piece per person). This is a lot for two people, and I think you could maybe spread it to 3 or 4 with the right amount of rice and naan (or smaller appetites). <br />

<br />
<b>Slow Cooker Chicken Fajitas </b><br />
Tex-Mex is not always my favorite, but I do really like fajitas. I think they do a great job of showing of the flavor of whatever peppers or meat you decide to wrap in a nice warm tortilla. <a href="http://www.cookingclassy.com/2015/01/slow-cooker-chicken-fajitas/" target="_blank">This recipe</a> from Cooking Classy is a pretty easy way to get these into your life. I think I like them a little better on low for the longer cooking time just because I feel like the spices permeate the meat and veggies more deeply. You can get a stack of tortillas and nuke them for 30 seconds or so to warm them up. Personally, I like topping them sometimes with cheese, sometimes with sour cream and often with salsa, but they can be flavorful enough on their own.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Isaac Asimov is probably the biggest name in science fiction literature. <em>Foundation</em> does a great job of showing you why he has the reputation he has. He throws the reader into the middle of the action more often than not, confusing you before slowly revealing the full scenario. My favorite part of Foundation, though, is the questions it raised as you see the story unfold over huge spans of time.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Nerds in general have a reputation for spending a lot of time talking about things that not everyone cares about. It's one of the things that makes them annoying to people in general and endearing to their friends. Asimov does not drop you into wells of exposition, he does everything in medias res. You might start a chapter completely bewildered by a new cast with entirely new problems and assumptions in a new place, but Asimov stays with them long enough for things to become clear. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Most books tell the story of one small set of characters' struggle with their own problems and the resolution they find before the end of their short lifetimes. <em>Foundation</em> follows the broad arcs of history. Individuals play their parts and give detail and depth to the narrative, but they are ephemeral. The story of <em>Foundation</em> is not about even one nation, but all people in a universe that has spread them across solar systems.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Finally, the questions. Are we learning the right things? Are we teaching the right things? Is it enough to be able to work a machine? How deep does your learning need to go? How many people need to know how to actually build it to make our way of life sustainable? How much have we forgotten already? What dependencies have we created? Are they acceptable? What is the role of religion? What is the role of war? How should we handle conflict?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<em>Foundation</em> is not memorable because there of its spaceships and fantastic feats of technology. <em>Foundation</em> is memorable because of the crises you find yourself in the middle of and the massive history those crises are in the middle of. The questions it raises are broad questions about mankind and industry and technology in their most basic and their most advanced forms. It's not about the future, it's about EVERYTHING.</div>

I have been blessed by wonderful, generous and thoughtful hosts all over the world. I find that the best hosts are travellers because they understand the value. That said, hosting is a skill that can be honed as well as a naturally occurring impulse. Here are a couple of tips that I have picked up from some of the most hospitable saints around the world:<br />
<br />
<b>Have a towel for them. </b> In spite of everything Douglas Adams has done to talk tourists into taking towels, they are bulky and annoying to pack. If you can't you can't, but it can be nice.<br />
<br />
<b>Have a plan.</b> Some people I've visited have straight up itineraries for me and that <i>rocks</i>. My friends are pretty cool, so they have plans but they are not really uptight about them. An interesting thing one girl did was take me on a couple bus tours of Edinburgh so then I could get an idea of what I wanted to see up close.<br />
<br />
<b>Show them how stuff works.</b> Basic appliances shift pretty dramatically if you so much as cross an ocean. Show them how to work the shower, the washing machine, the faucet, the toilet, the kitchen, and anything else you've got. This teaching mentality is for both <i>more</i> and <i>less</i> complex situations. In Japan, the toilets sometimes have <i>lots</i> of buttons (and sometimes they have terrifying singing faces in them). In Haiti, the toilet might be an outhouse. In Greece, there was a toilet, but toilet paper was thrown out instead of being flushed. In every case, the newcomer might need a tutorial. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0wbz7duV4EO7UIKrutybbrsbYNWmylNFpXDi6RmXj2FHUcpU-nPzRu0T1x4gD7_VeVEHGY43W0U2_ur8bODO8V4lwPKymCjyfBDSQNJ9lKIF00Hu7UQVNLpUKxorbMYNhuhAmKg_Zqck/s1600/Jerusalem.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="477" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0wbz7duV4EO7UIKrutybbrsbYNWmylNFpXDi6RmXj2FHUcpU-nPzRu0T1x4gD7_VeVEHGY43W0U2_ur8bODO8V4lwPKymCjyfBDSQNJ9lKIF00Hu7UQVNLpUKxorbMYNhuhAmKg_Zqck/s640/Jerusalem.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
I haven't actually addressed some of the cultural differences between the US and Israel and dealing with that culture shock. That doesn't seem quite right, so let's talk. I moved there when I was very young with American parents, then moved back to the US, so the first things I will talk about are what I learned from that reverse culture shock: </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
- Americans do not like to argue the way Israelis do</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
- Americans stand in lines </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
- The car backfiring is not an explosion or gunfire </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The first one is probably the biggest one. It's definitely good to brace yourself for arguing. I recommend embracing it as an opportunity to learn more about yourself and your beliefs. Please also know that this is something that at least can be done <em>affectionately</em>. My mother argued with a guy at the pool to the point of exhaustion before he happily exclaimed, "We are arguing like family!" If you are having debates with someone, they might <em>follow you</em> instead of <em>avoid you</em> (like a normal American would). In fact, they might <em>like</em> you. I always recommend debating or arguing respectfully: listen to the other person, respond to what they say, ask questions and don't pretend you know more than you do. Don't get insulting. Try to remain calm. This is all ESPECIALLY TRUE IF YOU TALK ABOUT THE CONFLICT. That said be honest, and even blunt. Also, let's face it, you might be traveling, tired or just don't want to argue. If this is really not you, I would say you are free to disengage. Israeli culture is individualistic. Be yourself.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When I arrived in the States (still in grade school), standing in a line was not something I knew how to do. This frustrated both me and my teachers. However, it seems as though Israel has become much more cordial than it once was. I don't think this is something you have to worry about adjusting to these days.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Israelis are braced for emergency situations. It's good for you to be too. If you are there or are planning on going there, keep tabs on the situation and keep away from dangerous areas if you can. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now, the stuff I observed in adulthood </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
- Racism </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
- Communism in the Palestian-Israeli community</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
- Wide variety of Islamic interpretation </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
- Wide disparity in living conditions </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Racism was a hard thing for me to see, and I expect that would be the same for many Americans. It seems the least hidden in the Israeli-Jewish community, and the target is obviously Arabs for them. Depending on how much energy you have, you might want to be confrontational (see above paragraph on arguments), or you might just want to let it slide. If you do decide to be confrontational, note that an Arab may have killed a loved one. Just be ready for that. Also, in my experience, Palestinians have not talked to me personally about hating Jews, but some Arabs have adopted a violent and flamboyant rhetoric about Jews, and Israelis take that personally. Their view is that they are defending themselves. Depending on the person, they may see hostile subgroups as the enemy or Arabs in general. I don't claim to understand racism, even in this more limited context, but I thought I would share at least the defensive perspective in hopes that it may help you, especially if you decide to confront someone. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Israel has a history of socialism, and the kibbutzim scattered throughout the country are evidence of that. I just thought I would make a note that Communism was increasingly popular with the Arab-Palestinian citizens of Israel (long PC name) when I was there in 2007. You get a pretty broad spectrum of political ideologies, but I just didn't see this one coming, so I thought I would share.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In Sakhnin, most of the Muslim women dressed normally from an American perspective, with the hijab only being used by older women. The family I lived with was actually mixed (Christian and Muslim), but with some beliefs I would describe as New Age. In Ramallah, the women dressed much more modestly (If I remember correctly, most wore a hijab and a loose dress, but left their face uncovered). Based on other things I have read and people I have met, it seems that you get everything from the most extreme extremists to </div>

Yeah, more of the nerd stuff. <br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="border-image: none; text-align: justify;">
A trip always reaches a point where you can't just remember what you've found so far. I've written before about <a href="http://thirdcultureshock.blogspot.com/2014/06/israel-itinerary.html" target="_blank">using a workbook to plan a trip</a>, and it's been helpful for our Italy trip too. I thought I would talk in a little more about <em>how</em> I do that so you can use the same tactics for your next trip: </div>
<br /><br />
<strong>Tab 1: The Itinerary</strong><br />
<div style="border-image: none; text-align: justify;">
To me, this is the foundation of the trip even though it isn't necessarily the first thing finalized. When you'll be where doing what is the whole trip. You need to always make sure the story you're telling makes sense. If you have a calendar or something like it, you'll notice immediately if there is a schedule conflict. That doesn't sound exciting until you realize it could mean a missed flight. Your flights are your bookends. Then, as you decide what you want to do and when, add what you'll do and where those things happen. Remember, your first draft definitely doesn't have to be your final draft.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="border-image: none; text-align: justify;">
<strong>Tab 2: Stuff to do</strong></div>
<div style="border-image: none; text-align: justify;">
Especially with places that have a lot to offer, I like making a giant list of everything we could possibly do, then narrowing it down. Obviously, if you are traveling with companions, you have to collaborate the whole time, but I would consider this the most important area to work together. You don't want someone missing the one thing they really wanted to see. For the megalist, make sure to track what it is, where it is, how much it will cost and any relevant links. It might also be good to add details like hours of operation.</div>

<strong>Tab 3: Places to stay </strong></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This is a big deal. Gotta have a place to sleep. Unless you're a vampire. Or one of the serious partiers that can literally go for days. I like sleeping. I didn't even really do all-nighters in college. I did sleep on a hotel room floor, but that's not what I would call Plan A. This is another great place to make a big list of all the options then narrow it down. I can end up researching places for hours on TripAdvisor, but that doesn't mean I can remember the name of <em>any</em> of my favorite B&Bs in Rome. Yeah, my memory sucks. I start writing stuff down fast. For Italy, I listed places, cities, types, costs, notes and links. "Types" is key for Italy since they have so many kinds of housing. If you are just going to be staying in hostels or just in hotels, you can ditch this detail. Remember to always read reviews when looking at housing.</div>

<strong>Tab 4: Transportation </strong></div>
<div style="border-image: none; text-align: justify;">
I didn't do this with the Israel trip, but I wanted to record prices for trains, so it got its own tab. This will obvious vary depending on how much traveling you are planning to do once you get to your trip, and whether you are <a href="http://thirdcultureshock.blogspot.com/2014/06/driving-in-israel.html" target="_blank">renting a car</a> or leaning on public transit.</div>
<div style="border-image: none; text-align: justify;">

<div style="border-image: none; text-align: justify;">
<strong>Tab 5: Cost </strong></div>
<div style="border-image: none; text-align: justify;">
What you plan to spend on a trip is probably not what you will spend on the trip. That said, I feel compelled as an adult woman with a job and car keys and such to try to estimate my expenses using something besides my intuition. My money intuition served me pretty well, but I just know Italy is going to slap my bank account in the face if I let it. I listed the plane tickets, non-free activities we want to do, a food estimate, housing and transportation then ballparked the numbers based on Internet research. I listed the costs per person and then the total it would cost us. Then there is a running Grand Total at the bottom. Like the Itinerary, this is something that needs to be updated as your trip evolves. It's not as much fun, but seeing that total can help you restrain yourself when you need to.</div>
<div style="border-image: none; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="border-image: none; text-align: justify;">
I hope this is helpful! I actually hated Excel for a long time. I am partial to Word, but tables can be really helpful when planning stuff like this.</div>
<div style="border-image: none; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="border-image: none; text-align: justify;">
Sidenote: I am trying to be general with the details intentionally, here. Don't be too open about your trip before it happens.</div>

The real stuff is starting to happen! We have the plane tickets! We are right on the edge of booking our housing and tours! <br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Plane tickets are an area of uncertainty for me. There are some resources on how to do this well (links to travel blogger advice), but timing is always questionable. I feel good about our purchase, though. We paid about $800 per person, and our flights are short for the distance we are travelling (give actual times). That latter factor is all the more important to me since I married a man who is 6'3". That's a lot of man to cram into coach (or economy or whatever the non-first-sapphire-luxe-gold class is called on the airline). I found that Bologna had some inexpensive tickets (and it might be a really good base with it's central location), but Rome had more flexibility in its flights and shorter flights. Bologna didn't even have daily flights, which is something I've gotten used to. I also couldn't figure out how to not get tracked, so I used a bunch of different devices to spread out my search without making the prices climb (home, work, smartphone...). I ended up finding the flight through Kayak and booking through Webjet (links). I did try out Skyscanner, and I appreciated getting the price updates on my phone, but I had that set up for Bologna and I ended up with Rome. Stopping the alerts was easy, too. I also talked to people to get a ballpark of what they had paid for tickets, and I researched the best times to travel early on (link).<br />

I've done pretty much all my hotel/B&B/rental research on TripAdvisor. It is in some ways trickier with Italy because there are so many kinds of places to stay, and there are more B&Bs than hotels. We're opting for a rental in Rome, then hotels and B&Bs for brief excursions to Venice and Florence/Tuscany. I really would have loved to stay at a convent's guest house in Venice, but they required longer than a one-night stay. I really wish we had more than a week, but we really don't. We're using an inexpensive rental in Rome (still with great reviews) and splurging a little on a hotel in Florence. I am having a little trouble picking a place in Venice. We will have to use a hotel or a B&B because they'll let us stay just one night (I think). </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div style="border-image: none;">
Booking places to stay means we already have a basic itinerary: we'll arrive in Rome Wednesday, stay until sometime Saturday, one night in Venice, one night in Florence and back to Rome. In Rome, I've decided I needed to do three major things I wanted to do in Rome: the Vatican museums (which includes the Sistine Chapel along with other wonders), the Colosseum and...I don't feel good about this, and I would like points for honesty...a food tour, specifically with Eating Italy. Essentially, all that means at least three days in Rome, at least at our pace. We have no interest in feeling rushed and not leaving time to just enjoy ourselves. </div>

David really wants to see Venice, and it has been recommended by friends. I've also heard that it's not that great, and it should only take up a day or two. We'll see, I guess.<br />
<br /></div>

Florence might have lost against Bologna or Assisi, but, along with its own virtues, like the Uffizi<em> </em>Gallery and Il Duomo, it is also in the heart of <em>Tuscany</em>. Even with just a day, I think we can see some of the city and spend some time in the wine country.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I want to see Bologna because I have read <a href="http://theplanetd.com/bologna-things-to-do/?utm_content=bufferaeafc&utm_medium=social&utm_source=pinterest.com&utm_campaign=buffer">lovely</a> <a href="http://historyinhighheels.blogspot.it/2015/04/top-five-most-underrated-destinations.html?m=1">things</a>. It has a reputation as a mid-sized Italian city without the tourism so prevalent in the famous cities, but still with the charm and delicious food that tourists come for.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assisi">Assisi</a> looks stunning (pictures), and I think <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francis_of_Assisi">St. Francis of Assisi</a> is a fascinating figure, along with <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clare_of_Assisi">St. Clare</a> who abandoned her life as a noble to embrace poverty. It seems to be well-removed, but it is accessible by train. Most visitors seem to have cars, so I am not sure how easy it is to get along without one (we're not planning to rent a car). <br />

I will say, compared with long-term travelers (the typical travel blogger), this is going to be an expensive trip. Some of that is because it is Italy. If you really want to save money, southeast Asia and India have very low costs associated. The good news is that the dollar (USD) is almost equal in value to the Euro right now, which is not always the case. I am also not single and traveling with friends. David and I could stay in hostels, but the truth is that this is something of a honeymoon, and we want to be able to be alone. If we had more time to spend in Italy, using rentals in each city and/or staying in monasteries or convents could be a great option. As far as I can tell, these places won't let you stay just one night. We are also planning on booking some tours, which will cost money. I am planning to do some research on my own, but I am thinking that a guided tour might be worth it for the Vatican museums and the Colosseum. Also, food tour. Basically, we are trying to be careful with our money, but we could make this trip cheaper if we really wanted to. We've been budget-conscious, and we won't be spending more than we can afford.</div>
