Useful Travel Tips TIWIK #2

1. Take pictures. Always. Everywhere. If you forgot/lost your camera, buy a disposable. Everybody will grumble and hate you for being the annoying camera person during the trip, then send you ‘thank you’/‘you’re awesome’/‘will you marry me?’ notes at the end of it.

2. Don’t let anyone near your bags during your leaving party. Or facetious friends might take all your socks out and replace them with several miniature Eiffel towers and one snowboarding boot.

3. Before leaving, scan your ID and send it to yourself via email. Replacement procedure way simplified if it gets stolen!

4. Baby wipes will save you when there are no showers around.

5. Travelling is a lot of waiting. Bring a book.

6. Sand will get inside everything.

7. Buy an extra battery for your camera.

8. Pack a pair of undies, a fresh T-shirt, a toothbrush and tiny quantities of your most important beauty essentials in your carry-on. If they lose your checked-in luggage, you won’t be left with nothing on arrival!

9. Research as much as you can before your trip: there are so many things you will regret to have missed out of lack of knowledge!

10. When travelling, start taking care of yourself like you would of a 6-month-old baby: most of the time, when you’re feeling unexplainably upset, you’re just hungry. Or dehydrated
