FAQ
When traveling, what should you remember?
Traveling is a time when you are often faced with situations that require quick decisions. Be ready to adapt.
You could be stuck there for hours, days and even weeks. If you have a plan, you'll be able to provide food, water, shelter and a place to rest. You may need to improvise if you don't plan ahead.
In these cases you will need to rely on your best skills. That means taking quick decisions based only on intuition and experience.
Sometimes, however, you will not have any other choice. You might find yourself in an area without cell service, out of gas or robbed. You will need to be flexible to any situation that presents itself.
It is important to remain calm, keep your eyes on the prize and be decisive. Don't panic. Instead, keep your eyes on the things you can control.
You can, for example, choose the direction you want to travel if you get lost in the woods. For those who are hungry, berries and mushrooms can be eaten. If you're thirsty, you can drink rainwater or melt snow.
You can also rest if you are tired. You can wrap up if you're cold. If you get wet, you can put on clothes. Whatever your choice, staying positive will help you feel better.
Do you ever worry that you might forget something when you travel?

Travel light as you never know what may happen. For instance, if your bag is lost or stolen, you won’t have any clothes.
