Traveling can either be a wonderful experience or a stressful one, depending on how you handle it. Here are a few travel hacks that can help you lessen the stress while you’re traveling in a big colorful city or hiking. These hacks might save your life, so check them out!
#1 Exercising prevents jet lag
A day prior to your actual flight, run a mile or do any intense exercise to prevent jetlag.
#2 Great airline deals happen on Sundays
A recent study suggests that an airline ticket booked on a Sunday is over 70 USD cheaper than Monday.
#3 Getting rid of luggage smells
Don’t like your luggage’s smell? Then, put dryer sheets at your luggage’s bottom before you pack your clothes, so you can get a fresh laundered smell. If you have dirty clothes, try putting them in a laundry bag with a bar of hotel soap. This way, your dirty laundry won’t stink up your suitcase.
#4 Tic-tac holders
Planning on taking a long escapade in the great outdoors? Then, use empty boxes of tic-tac as holders for your spices.
#5 Chips are great tinder
A bag of Doritos will not only make a tasty snack for your trip, but it can also be used as tinder for your camp fire.
#6 Crayons as candles
A box of crayons can be more than just a coloring instrument to fuel your kid’s creativity and artistry. As a camper and travel junkie, you can also use crayons as emergency candles during your outdoor retreats. Each crayon burns 30 minutes or more.
#7 Keep your undies in your carry on, just in case
If your luggage gets lost on the way to your destination, you’ll still have plenty of clean underwear to keep you going
#8 Store your loose chargers in an old glasses case
This way, you won’t have to dig around the bottom of your bag when you’re in need of a charge. Plus, you’ll keep the cords tangle free.
#9 Look into home stays instead of hotels to save money and feel like a local.
Home stays have become a thrifty accommodation alternative — sometimes they turn out to be even nicer than hotels! Plus, they give you a sense of what it’s like to actually live in that city.
#10 Use a weekly pill container
Store and sort your jewelry in a weekly pill container. Earrings and rings are easy fits.
#11 Turn layovers into sightseeing time
Often, flights with stopovers are much more reasonable. Opt for a stop-over flight and turn your one vacation into two!
Have a fun and worry free trip!
