Have you ever left a place knowing you have “visited” all the attractions in the guidebooks ,but feeling like you know no more about it than before you visited it? One way to make your travels more memorable is to seek out local food, people and activities.     1     Here are some detailed ways to experience local culture during traveling.

Taste local food.

When we travel to a new environment, our senses are excited by the sounds, smells and tastes. Food is no longer just a necessity to maintain life — it's a tale and even a custom.    2     Try local food instead, and you may encounter food that you will never forget.

Stay with locals.

    3     However, compared to that, a local's home is where you'll find everyday displays of deep local culture and values, as well as meaningful connections with people who are just like us. For most of us, what we remember most about our travels probably are the conversations with strangers and, sometimes, newfound friends.

Go on cultural tours.

There's no better way to learn about a place than from locals. Some cities have free tours where local guides will take you on a tour of a city while sharing fascinating facts.     4    That's because extra reward will get the tour guide to give you extra service.

Context Travel, which is a small-group cultural tour led by scholars, is also a great choice.

    5    .

The best way to explore a destination is on foot. The second-best way is by public transportation. When you go slow and let yourself wander, it's no longer a task to get from Point A to Point B — all the sights around you will become an unforgettable ink drawing in your mind.

A.Draw it in your mind.
B.A hotel may be comfortable.
C.All you have to do is tip them.
D.Walk or take public transportation.
E.They welcome you into their homes.
F.By doing so, you'll learn more about a place.
G.So stop going to the fast food chains you're familiar with.

【推荐2】How to Be a Good Listener to Your Family

Communication is important for family relationships. However, if you don’t truly listen to others, it can be difficult to communicate.     1    

Listen actively. When listening to a family member, do not let your mind wander to other things. It’s important to make your family member feel heard and valued. Put your phone away and give them your full attention. Never think about other things when someone is talking.     2    

Repeat what has been said. Briefly summarizing what the speaker has said can go a long way towards effective communication. Everyone wants to feel valued and heard, so repeating a family member’s point can show you were listening.     3     It can really allow you and your family to communicate better as well.

Do not interrupt.     4     Always allow a few seconds of silence after someone finishes talking before offering your response. This allows you to make sure the speaker has finished talking. Do not talk over someone either. No matter how curious you feel about a subject, do not start talking until the other person has finished.

    5     Never rush the person into talking. Do not break in before the speaker is finished just to hurry the speaker along. Never say things like “Can you get to the point?”. This will make it seem like you are not interested in the conversation.

B.Instead, focus on what’s being said.
C.People tend to pause when they speak.
D.Interrupting can put breaks on effective conversation.
E.It can help you make sure you understood the speaker.
F.When someone finishes talking, ask questions if necessary.
