“ Celebrate diversity,

       practice acceptance
       and may we all
       choose peaceful

       options to conflict.”

       Minding your manners





       while holding your own







        It’s important for any traveler to learn the cultural norms of their
        destination, but it’s doubly important if you are a woman traveling on your
        own. After all, many of the different behaviors and attitudes you encounter
        will have to do with gender, and being prepared can save you (and your
        foreign hosts) plenty of discomfort. Keep an open mind, focus on the
        positive, and be mindful that how you comport yourself abroad reflects
        on all Americans.
