Things I have learned while travelling:-
1. When the man in the tour shop says the treks are all "easy & flat", don´t believe him, he is lying.
2. You will never have your antibacterial 'no water needed' handwash with you when you really need it & it will lie unused in your rucksack.
3. Your camera will run out of charge on the same day that your IPod and phone run out of charge and your chargers will be in your luggage 3 hours away in the jungle with no electricity even if you did have the chargers.
4. I will never like Bob Marley no matter how many times other travellers play his songs at me.
5. Always spend good money on a decent raincoat & torch. You will appreciate it & feel smug.
6. I don´t hate all teenagers after all, just most of them.
7. It can be surprisingly hard to find some time alone.
8. Waiting for an internet page to load is the new 'watching the paint dry'.
9. The 'ferry' is a euphamistic term for a 13-seater deathtrap. Always take a spare carrier bag for yourself or someone else to be sick into.
To be continued.........
