Do you like to drive when you go abroad? If you're even remotely contemplating driving on your next trip, one of the best ways to get ready is to learn how to drive a manual transmission.
Why should you bother to learn to drive stick? If you haven't needed it now, is it really worth it? It's simple: money. Most cars for rent in Europe, for example, only have manual transmission. If you need an automatic, you'll likely have to upgrade to a more expensive car. Learn this great skill ahead of time and save yourself some a lot of money down the road.
If you weren't lucky enough to learn when you started driving, how can you learn? The simplest way may be to find a friend who knows and convincing them to teach you. If you don't have a manual-driving friend, look around for classes at driving schools or on Craigslist, or you could make an attempt at learning by yourself. Expert Village has a good video introduction to learning how to drive a manual transmission.
