Travel is amazing! It’s one of my favorite things to do. When planning a trip make sure you consider these 3 questions:
1) What will the weather be like at my destination?
- Take a look at the highs and lows and plan your outfits accordingly. Will you need a hat, sunscreen, winter gear, etc.
- In addition, make sure you bring layers (and cardigans) to keep in line with heavy air conditioning.
2) Will I have down time?
- What can I do with my free time? Do I need to bring appropriate clothing (sneakers, bathing suit, sandals, or workout clothes, etc).
- Bring a book (paper or digital version). This way you are not waiting for things to happen you have something to do (especially in the airport).
3) What can’t I leave behind?
- Use a packing checklist. This way you won’t forget anything including toiletries, medications/vitamins, money, business cards, passport, license/ID
- Start early so you can re-think your choices (and not over-pack).
