2. Prepare to combat turbulence

 

We are all a little  afraid of traveling.  Having to get on a plane makes anxiety inevitable, but you don’t have to worry,  flying by plane is safer  than it seems. These vehicles are increasingly prepared for any incident.

If the turbulence does not let you rest during the flight, one of the  travel tips  that you should take into account is  to reserve a seat near the wings.  In that area of ​​the plane,  turbulence is felt less strongly.  Don’t leave  check-in  until the last minute if you want to get one of these coveted seats.

3. Don’t forget to pack an adapter

 

You may not know it, but  the electric current in other countries differs  from the electric current in the country where you live. Therefore, it is advisable  to keep an adapter in the suitcase. Better to prevent than to see your electrical devices break down due to  voltage overload .

Ah, but don’t settle for taking a simple adapter…  Take a power strip so you can charge all your devices  without any problem. Keep in mind that some hotels are a bit stingy with plugs, so now you know!

4. Do not overload your suitcase

 

Have you heard about fines for overweight luggage? So, avoid them and  take what you are really going to need.  Don’t be one of those who pack a lot of things “just in case”, and end up using half the suitcase. Pay attention to these  travel tips  and  wear clothes according to the climate  of the place  you visit and that you know you will wear.

5. Take a  power bank with you

Photos, videos, posts on social networks and  apps  for travelers  will make your mobile battery last less than a gust of wind. Thank you blessed technology! that has a solution for everything…  Carry a  power bank  or portable charger in your backpack, so you can  charge your mobile whenever  and wherever you need to.

6. Do you have your passport up to date?

One of the  travel tips  that we never stop giving our readers is that  they have their passport and documents up to date.  We have heard from people who in the middle of their trip  discover that their passport has expired  and are faced with an avalanche of problems and paperwork to solve it.

What do you have to check? First, make sure your passport is up to date and  valid for the duration of your stay.  As a second point, make sure that your passport  does not expire in less than 6 months,  because you could be denied entry to the country you are traveling to and lose all your money.

oh! We almost forgot…  Make a copy, physical or digital, of all your documents  so that in case they are lost or stolen, you can access them and show them to the authorities whenever necessary.

7. Wear comfortable clothes for the flight

We all like to look good… Especially those girls who want to look like Hollywood stars when traveling by plane, but when you’re facing a 20-hour flight, it’s not style that matters, but comfort  .  Save those stunning clothes for your stay and look as comfortable as possible.

In your  hand luggage  you cannot miss a pair of headphones, a good book, an eye mask, a pillow and, if you are intolerant of cold like some of us, a blanket or a coat.

8. Get a good accommodation

 

If you are  traveling alone  and you don’t mind staying in a luxurious hotel, one of the best  travel tips  we can give you is  to stay in a hostel.  There are very comfortable and pleasant places, so you just have to find one that you like and that has good reviews.

Many people criticize hostels, because they find them ugly and uncomfortable, but we have stayed in hostels on more than one occasion and it has been a very cool experience. In them we have met great people and  we have saved a lot of money.

9. Do not buy flights with airlines directly

If you have bought your plane tickets with the airlines,  let us tell you that you have lost a lot of money since  you could have gotten them at a better price.  What do we recommend you do? You can use  Skyscanner , for example, and get your flight to  Australia ,  Canada ,  New Zealand  or any destination at the best price.

10. If you are going to buy souvenirs, make them worth it

 

Virtually every country in the world has local markets where artisans provide visitors with quality work, so do  n’t spend money on generic  , characterless souvenirs. Invest in artifacts that will remind you, throughout your life, of the incredible adventure you are living.

11. Take some cash with you

Incidents happen, and when traveling, this is no exception. It is always  a good idea to carry cash in your bag , so one of the  travel tips  that you should not ignore is  to go to an exchange house to get some money  in the currency of the country you are going to visit.

Of course,  find out how much money you are allowed to enter  the country so that you are not fined at the airport for carrying more than the allowed amount.

12. Don’t keep all your money in one place

Wherever you go, you run the risk of being robbed without realizing it. It can be your backpack or maybe your wallet, but regardless of this,  it is important that you distribute your money well  so that you do not lose everything if you are robbed.

Carry a part of it in the pockets of your pants, in the pockets of your shirt and in the places where you can keep it and know that it will be safe and sound, and above all, protected from the hands of others.

13. Take out health insurance

If we learned anything the hard way, it was to  take out medical insurance every time we travel. Accidents happen when you least expect it. If you suffer from a sprain, are poisoned or suffer from an allergic reaction, you can go to the nearest hospital and  receive the best care  without worrying about all the expenses.

In addition, to travel to many countries,  having health insurance is a requirement,  so you better inform yourself well and start looking for options that fit your budget.

14. Have a good attitude

Many times, we arrive in a foreign country without speaking the language or mastering it very little, and that makes us feel lost. For this reason, one of the  travel   tips that we could not leave out of this list is to have a good attitude. Remember that a smile  can open thousands of doors.

If you show yourself kind and friendly, it is almost certain that  you will find someone to help you  better orient yourself and adapt to this unknown place; In addition, a good attitude is the hook to make good friends and get the most out of your trip.

15. Take a course!

Traveling not only has to be synonymous with pleasure, but also with growth. During your stay  you can study a short course. Depending on the country you are in, you can find many options, but in our list of  travel tips , we recommend an intensive English course.

Why an  intensive English course ? It is a great opportunity to learn the universal language. Also, as it is an intensive course,  you can learn it more quickly. Courses  can last  from 2 weeks to 3 months.  And as you well know,  studying abroad  has many benefits that you should take advantage of.

Well, we have reached the end and we already share with you our best  tips for traveling ; however, we have one more to give you and it is the one we consider most important:  get out of your comfort zone!  Out there, there is a huge world to discover and many adventures to live, so go for them, because we know  you won’t regret it.
