Dress in layers and you are sure to be ready for any weather.
Weather can be unpredictable, especially if you are visiting an
unfamiliar place. By having several layers of clothing, you can
add or remove pieces depending on the temperature. This is
especially useful for all day adventures which start in the cool
morning but warm up later in the day.
One simple tip for hotel safety is to carry a small rubber door
stop with you. It can pack easily inside a shoe or even be carried
in a jacket pocket if you're short on space. This door stop can be
wedged under the door at night, to prevent midnight visitors.
If you are taking a cruise, bring a tackle box and use it to store
your valuables. Most thieves are only interested in what they can
quickly find and get out with. They probably will not think to
look in a tackle box for valuables.
If you are traveling overseas, find out whether the country you
are in, offers a menu of the day. This option introduces you to
inexpensive food, that is native to the area that you are visiting.
Most menus have several courses that even include a glass or a
bottle of wine. You can save a tremendous amount of money,
eating out this way.
Keeping organized during the hectic schedule that you can often
experience, right before you are about to travel, ensures that you
do not forget any key item that you want to take with you. As
things get chaotic before you leave, you will need to remain
level-headed.
