What is there to do where I'm going?


This is the question that everyone eventually asks. Usually you have a specific reason to go to a place, but maybe not. You can research what to do by simply keying into a search engine on the web the phrase
"things to do in whatever your destination is". This is easy. I went to Google (http://www.google.com/) and keyed "things to do in London". A list of sites came up and the third one said "Top ten things to do in London: London for free". Free that appealed to me so I had a look. There were listing for museums, botanical gardens, parks, and other things. Now do the same thing for the country of Turkmenistan and you will also get a list of things to see and do.

Of course you may be taking your journey to visit some one. If that is the case the you should find out from that person if they have plans for you before you make plans. Both your and their plans could fit together easily but you will only know if you consult one another. Let them know what you might like to do and they may be able to arrange it for you. Be flexible. There may be something you have strong desires to accomplish when you are on your trip but you may find something more compelling after you arrive.

Another great source of information are the people you know where you live. You would be surprised by the number of people who have been to your destination. Listen to their advice, weigh it with your discoveries and make your decisions on what to do. Your friends and acquaintances are wonderful sources of information. Good luck with your search.
