When traveling by air, wear lightweight, comfortable shoes that can be easily slipped on and off. You may need to take your shoes off during security checks.

TIP! Before boarding your flight, get a quick workout in. Long flights are found to be hard to sit through.

If you travel with eyeglasses, make sure that an extra pair is in your luggage. Do not take the chance of going on a trip with only one pair. Put them in your suitcase, so that if your bag was stolen, you still have them.

A little research before hand about the laws and customs of the place you are visiting, can save you from a possibly embarrassing situation. Some behavior you find normal may be offensive or even illegal in another country. Show your respect for the laws and the people through your behavior.

While seeing exotic locals can be fun, its not the only way to take a fun vacation. There are plenty of vacation spots in your state or perhaps one that is close by. You can support your local economy by traveling close to home. There can be some really amazing trips just a quick drive away.

Use a list to help you pack your essentials. Between one week and three months before you leave for a trip, sit down and write down every item you are going to take with you. Even if you won’t have time to pack until the last minute, having a list will keep you organized.

TIP! Consider buying an electrical adapter prior to leaving the country for a trip; a voltage converter may be a good idea as well. It’s best to purchase one before you leave, because you will pay much more if you wait until you reach your hotel.
