The moment a person leaves the shelter of his home and is on the move, he is on his own. It is only his self-confidence on which he may rely during his journey. He has to meet a host of people, different kinds of people even if hels of a silent and quiet type and in the course of his dealings with porters, railway or airport staff, hotel personnel, taxi-drivers and so on, he learns how to tackle people / and project his own personality on them. This type of personality, however, he can acquire only as and when he gathers experience. It goes without saying that there may always be a few first times when he may find himself duped or in an impossible position. Since such an experience cannot be emulated or acquired vicariously, a person travelling for the first time has to throw himself at the mercy of a whole lot of persons without whose assistance he cannot successfully complete his journey.
Irrespective of the etiquette and manners that a person may like to show, he has to follow the simple rule of behaving strongly with the strong and gently with the weak. If he does not have the courage to .give back what he takes, he may have to finish his travels with constant fear and insecurity. But there are no grounds for becoming rude and rough, and the friends that a person makes through gentleness and good behaviour may be of immense help to him during his journey. The use of common sense is essential, and with it an eye for the genuine and the good. If he can at once guess through conversation who is a good man out to help him and who is not, he may be able to save or get ever much of the trouble that may come his way. Just as he is to be self-protecting in case of aggression or impediments, so also he has to be helping and sincere when he is face to face with a kind and likeable man. The idea is not to keep oneself shut up during travels but to collect as much treasure in the form of good contacts and advice as possible.
