Use Your Emotional Intelligence When Traveling Abroad
Part 2
by Susan Dunn

Page: 1 2 3 4

Stress Relief

Remember the things that can help you relax, stay alert and take care of business. If you start "flooding," breathe deeply until you can think clearly again. Use meditation or yoga techniques.

You will have preconceived notions and surprise emotions wherever you travel. EQ means accurate and rapid reality-testing, overriding unhelpful emotional responses and focusing on what needs to be done. Remind yourself of how to do this. (Get some EQ coaching!)

Time Zones & Currencies

There are lots of tools to help you. Buy a handheld computer, or print out a chart from the Internet, laminate it and put it on your wallet. Then you can pull it out when needed. It's called "one less thing to worry about."

Learn Basics In The Language

This is one of the most emotionally intelligent things you can do. Why? Because emotional intelligence is the universal language, and will be understood globally.

Being able to say a few essential words in the new language ingratiates you to people -- it makes them feel good and so they treat you better. Acknowledge the people you meet as individuals. The same things "work" the world over -- respect for others, good manners, acknowledgement of people as people.

The times we thanked people who helped us, using what Russian we knew, produced stronger results than tips, believe it or not. We got free drinks, free matryoshkas, free flowers, key chains, and a bump to the front of the line. This wasn't the intent of our actions, but it was honest emotional exchange, person to person.

Carry a piece of paper with the name of your ship or hotel, and the address and phone number with you, preferably in the native language. Learn a few key phrases in the new language -- Where's the toilet? I need a policeman. Where's my ship? I need a doctor. In a pinch, using just the noun will work -- police, ship, toilet, hospital.

Clothes & Packing

If you're traveling for pleasure, you want to be comfortable and look presentable, but it doesn't have to be a fashion show. Nearly everywhere, it's good to have layers.

Russia can be cold in the summertime, so I brought along an old windbreaker I have that had torn. I just discarded it along the way, along with some other old clothes I'd brought along.
