10 things which say you're an International Traveler


Today, while I was looking at the statistics of the nationalities of my readers, it hit me.
There are so many possible different origins one can have, but somehow there are always people, such as me, who feel like they belong everywhere and nowhere at the same time. Having lived my whole life in some of the biggest cities in the world, I should know about the incredible melting pot they all are, and yet we can still identify to one another.

So I thought it would be a fun thing to write about how do you really know if you're an International person:

#10_ You know approx. the hours of flight it will take to get from one country to another place on the planet

#9_ You can name at least five other currencies than the Pound, Euro, Yen and US Dollar

#8_ You wear appropriate clothes, which fit with the country's culture (no tank tops in India for example)

#7_ You can stand swapping your diet with another country's without suffering too much

#6_ You know Hong Kong is not in Japan

#5_ You've lived in two continents or more

#4_ You speak two languages fluently and are learning at least a third one

#3_ You know how to say "thank you" in five different languages

#2_ You pack your suitcase in an hour the night right before leaving and know the list of what to take by ♥

#1_ You know the Airport routine better than your own name and never wear a belt that rings or high heels

So here it was, my personal list of statements you can identify with if you're a very International person.


  • If you got 0, you have not discovered yet what the world had to offer
  • If you got 1 to 4, you're in the process of becoming a world traveler
  • If you got 5 to 7, you know what you're talking about
  • If you got 8 to 10, you have been through it all, the best and the worse, and know your cultures 
Hope to see you here again soon ! :)
