I spoke Italian moderately well, but I went for a walk and couldn’t find a way back to my hotel. I saw a person watching me struggling with the map, and walked over to ask if he could help. I told him that I couldn’t find my way back to the hotel I was staying at. Not only did he sh…

Are there small local brokerages like there are small local banks? The general advice for a checking account or other banking services is to use a small(ish) local bank or credit union, and I have had good success doing so. But, the small banks in my area do not offer brokerage accounts (I asked). I am also only aware of large brokerage companies (Chase, Fidelity (see my post history for why I hate this one), S…

Reminder: If a local offers to meet up, prioritize it for the beginning of the trip! As someone living in a major tourist city, I’ve had several cases where acquaintances have waited to meet up near the end of their trip, because they got caught up wandering around in the first few days.
