Books

Whenever I am going on vacation to a place I try to read a few books about its history first. It gets me psychologically situated for what I’m going to experience and I also find that people appreciate it and are even touched to find that you know a bit about their history.

Reading deepens your enjoyment of life. I don’t know if I’d enjoy travel so much if I wasn’t aware of all the layers of history beneath a place that I was visiting. I’m planning to travel through a few countries in southern Europe later this year and am reading books in anticipation.

That is the right way
If you don't know the history, you can never understand the present completely
