[travel] Old-school organization

[mattbell]

I'm compiling little "country guides" for myself that are essentially cheat sheets for 90% of the relevant info I'd need to get around that country.

The cheat sheets cover
- Major things I want to visit, how I get to them, when they're open etc.
- Bus/train/plane schedules and fares
- Contact info for local places to stay.
- Maps (photocopied from my travel books)
- Currency conversion (which I'll have memorized by the first day anyway)
- Basic phrases (photocopied from travel book)
- All the advice Ive received about stuff in that country, in really really small text. 

Basically, it's a hell of a lot better than thumbing through a tour book every time I want to look something up. 

Are there any other things you all can think of that I should have on the cheat sheets?

Location and contact info for the US Embassy, just in case.
