You are going to read the following text, entitled: 'Signs you're A Traveller, Not A Tourist'.

It may seem like splitting hairs, but there are major differences between being a traveller and being a tourist.
Being a traveller is sort of like being a part of a Newtonian law: A traveller in motion stays in motion, yada yada yada.
While being a tourist is sort of like intentionally plopping yourself down somewhere to say you went there. Fancy yourself a traveller? See if the below rings true first.
You dream about your next trip during your morning commute. Solo travel is your thing. You wouldn't be caught dead doing this. Like EVER. You love it so much; you made it your job.
Homesickness happens, we know. But you don't make it a point to head to the nearest McDonald's / Starbucks / Pizza Hut every chance you get.
You understand that not all money looks like American dollars. As such, you don't refer to foreign currency as "play money." It's real. Very real.
You have maps stashed on your walls / in your wallet / underwear drawer from favorite places.
Your Facebook cover photo is a destination you love / just got back from. Your phone has the weather and time zone of your favorite spots just because you like to know.
You know how to say "hello / goodbye and thank you" in many a language. You name cities by airport
codes, aka CDG, LHR, ORD. Your passport is your favorite personal item. Instagram shots of your
friend's vacations on Mexican beaches just isn't really traveling, in your book.
You rationalize trips as "well, that's a month's worth of electricity" or "I can't watch 'Homeland' this season"
so you can afford your adventures. Your New Year's resolutions always include places you want to visit
in the coming year.
Friends come to you for packing tips. You've never gone anywhere “just to check it off the list.” You know
how to get through security in the least amount of time.
This is you: a traveller. NOT a tourist!
