Can you use apple cider vinegar for sunburn? Or will you end up smelling like a packet of Walkers salt and vinegar crisps?
It’s not a good look, is it? The first week into your perfect vacation and there you are with bright red cheeks and scarlet shoulders that send you into orbit if a piece of clothing brushes them.
Who doesn’t want to look like an Italian? If you are heading over to Europe and are wondering what to wear in Italy then I have just the post for you.
Going on vacation can go one of two ways.
Either you can ease yourself into it nice and gently, have no expectations and experience the best three weeks of your life
or
you save up all year, get stressed out of your brain, worry about anything and everything, freak out because the kids aren’t as excited as they should be and after two weeks you come home feeling broke, frazzled and exhausted.
And you have sunburn on your shoulders.
You swear that the next time you take a break it will be a stay-cation.
Sound faintly familiar? Just a teeny bit?
Remember when rain ponchos were the ugliest thing in the world? Long, plastic, see-through monstrosities that only someone very desperate to keep dry would wear? Well, lucky for us travelers, things have moved along in the world of ponchos and now we are searching out the best rain ponchos on the market so we too can stay dry and look stylish.
Why do you need a travel checklist? Because there is only so much information can you store in your brain at once.
That’s why.
Whether you are going on vacation or taking off on a long term worldwide travel adventure, your poor head will be whizzing with everything you need to do beforehand.
My family and I recently returned for a year-long backpacking trip around the world so I know what you are going through. Here is a handy travel checklist that we compiled just for you.
So that you don’t have to have a fuzzy head as I did.
Meaning that all you will have to worry about on vacation is whether or not to have a glass of red, white or rosé.
Enjoy. (more…)
Don’t be boring when you travel. Life is too short. While I love Paris, Rome and New York as much as anyone else, there is no greater pleasure than discovering the more unique travel destinations that are hiding, (mostly undiscovered) around the world.
Those destinations that are perfect for people like you and me, who take extended vacations; those who travel on a budget but still want the full bifters when it comes to experience. (more…)
