“It is Better to Light a Candle Than Curse The Darkness.”

– Eleanor Roosevelt –

“What are you complaining about? Who cares if your hummus in India doesn’t taste 100% authentic or that there is no electricity for an hour or the wifi isn’t as strong as you want? 

Have respect for locals… You’re in a different part of the world, surrounded by a different way of life, a different culture… So don’t complain, understand how your fellow human beings, those who are living in the places you are visiting, live their lives. 

Don’t complain just because it’s not what you expected or you are unable to live the same as you do back at home. Just love and respect others instead, appreciate and experience and share in their culture.”
