Traveling can be pretty stressful and hectic, even for seasoned backpackers. As a matter of fact, it can leave you sensitive and extra concerned about ticking everything off your list of things to do. When these things happen, stop, and take a deep breath.
Forget about the bus schedules, closing times, and fitting in that trekking trip before lunchtime. Take a look around, enjoy the sights, listen to the crashing waves on the shore, observe the locals in the habitat, and feel the sands. Slow down, and experience the delight of the place you have worked so hard to get to.
