Make sure your body and mind are in correlation with each other. You should be prepared mentally and physically for your trip. Since you will be in some remote location, it will not be as easy as travelling to a city or a town.

If you are not physically ready to be at your destination, never try to compromise with it. Health is the first and foremost priority, so do not undertake any risk, especially if you are a newbie. There may be challenges throughout your journey which in turn will lower your morale.

Get to know each and everything about the location, from the weather to the surroundings and the local customs. Do not assume things on the basis of factual errors. Go through different articles and blogs written about the place, and if you are planning to visit some secluded and unfrequented spots, make sure you are moving with details.

Different locations abide by different sets of rules and regulations. Sincerely research the people and their traditions if you have planned a journey to some tribal setting. Avoid planning in the nick of time.
