No matter where you travel, it's important that you have an exact plan of what you will do for the next few hours after you land at your destination. Whether you arrange for someone to meet you at the airport, or whether you book a hotel room in advance - it's always better to know exactly what you'll be doing once you collect your luggage and mosey on your way.

The reason for this is that we often underestimate how tiring traveling can be. You may arrive at your destination more fatigued that you imagined you would be, and/or the travel may make you disoriented. Because of this, it's always better to plan beforehand exactly what you will do and where you will go upon arrival.

This advice is especially true for foreign travel. While there is something romantic and alluring about just showing up somewhere and seeing where fate leads you, it's best not to have this attitude when you've just come off of a 6 or 8 hour flight. You can leave your adventuring for after you've rested and gotten on your feet a bit. Until then, stick to a plan and get some rest!
