As we know there are different ways of
traveling depending on budget, likes and of course the destiny. However, I’m
going to try giving some general tips.
First and most important thing is to know
where you’re going to. Not physically, cause it obvious that you know where you
are traveling to, but to know your destination´s required documents, vaccines
or health advices, traditions and general norms. If you don’t so, you may get
in trouble and that is not what you want, ha? I recommend checking if all your
documents are updated nearly a month before departing so that you avoid that
last minute stress because your passport is expired. Believe me; they won’t let
you board the plane.
Next step is packing. I personally hate
packing. It takes out the worst of me. That’s why I do a list with the things
I’m taking and go checking them as I pack. However I always start by saying
“ok, I´ll travel light this time” and end up sitting on my suitcase pushing my
weight against it.
Anyway, I recommend checking the weather
two weeks before going and planning what you are taking with you based on that.
It doesn’t matter whether you are going to the beach or a big city. There are
some items that I always take with me. Some comfortable shoes are really
important for me as well as a basic jacket that matches any clothes. A good
raincoat and a good hat are a must too. Oh and also take some socks. I always
forget the socks.
When packing my daily needs I never take
things I know I have in the Hotel so as the hairdryer or towels. However, I
always do take sun cream and my moisturizer. They are necessary when spending
the whole day walking the streets of a city.
Regarding to electronics I take the items
depending on how long, who with and where I’m going. However, I always do take
my phone and its charger, an IPod and of course at least one camera.
Finally, I suggest doing your own map of
the place you are visiting. Highlight only the most important things to you and
use that as your main map.
So this is it. This is my little tiny piece
of advice when organising the next adventure.
