[quote=Anonymous]People I know who travel all over for work often have a picture book - you can point to the picture to communicate what you want. Also, get someone at the hotel to write down the name and address (some places have cards) in the local language. If you really want a feel for the local culture, look into home stays in whatever country you're going to. Kickbacks to your guide for taking you to a friend's resturant is common in many places, you'll just have to relax about that thing up front. With or without a guide, you'll probably pay higher than the local price for things but again, you've just gotta chill out about that kinda of thing.[/quote]
