One day, I read something like this “It’s
been said before, but it’s worth repeating: travel is like a drug. The more we
do it, the more we need to do it.” Yes, traveling makes us see new places and
cultures, hear new languages. In my opinion, travelling is about enjoying the
very moment, not thinking about the past and future. Plus, as a woman, I care
more about how to take care of my skin and hair when I am on the go, LOL.
1. Use Zip-lock Bags For Storage & Organization
Zip-lock bags
are used to organize all the mess-ups before journey, to protect your luggage
from cosmetics or liquids. Choose those with a slider. They’re more durable and
it is easier to get a good seal.
2. Stash Extra Cash
To cover things
up in an emergency, make sure to stash some cash in a few different places. Experts
recommend at least a couple hundred dollars. If you do not carry the wallet,
your card is out of balanced, or the ATMs run out of money, you’ll be glad you
did.
3. Silk Pillowcase & Eye Mask
Keep a hydrated
skin and glow hair would be a tricky when people are on the go, therefore, as
many celebrities and stylists do, carry a silk pillowcase and eye mask with you
so that you do not have a puffy eyes and bad-looking face.
4. Carry A Ping-Pong
What for? Well,
it’s a trick of mine. You can use it to release the pain of your leg or for
relaxation if you can not feel your legs during the trip. It is like a magic.
Believe it or not, I find it amazing in reducing the pain and relaxing my
nerves. The ping-pong is very convenient to carry, truly.
5. Music- Good Companion For Trip
What are you
going to do if you have to spend 10 more hours on the road? I would like to go
for music. Listening to my favorites makes me forget all the troubles and humdrum
on the road.
6. Read Magazines When Phones Are Out
What if your
phone runs out of battery and you do not have an Ipad around you? Magazines
will help you spend a long time without boring! Yes, paper-reading is not that
popular now, but it indeed is a good helper for travel.
7. Wake Up Early To Explore
Yes, wake up
early to explore something fantastic while avoiding crowds after you have a
good rest in the night. It’s also a magical time for photos due to soft light
and few people. As the famous traveler said: “Honest hardworking people wake up
early; touts, scammers, and criminals sleep in.”
8. Treat Your Body Well
Travel can throw
your body out of whack. Here are some advice, get enough sleep, carry your
skin-care essentials, drink water as much as possible, have a lot of fruit or vitamins.
9. Photos Are Important
Take Lots Of
Photos when you are away from the place where you are familiar with, otherwise,
you have to leave all the beautiful views in your brain. I mean, why? After the
long-distance journey, all the toil should be credited, right?
10. Meet Local People
You will never
know the real life until you go the extra mile, see the local people. Be
impulsive and say yes when someone randomly invites you. It’s these unexpected
and unplanned stories that make your travel more impressive and interesting
