Travel Tips: Before You Leave Home!
Are you planning on going on vacation? Do you have a large amount of luggage that you cannot possibly hope to take around with you on your travels? Well if you are new or experienced in going on vacation it is still important that you know how to pack the perfect carry on, and that you ensure that you have everything that you need whilst you are visiting different areas. This article will go through some of the essential tips you need to consider when packing your carry on, and what things you do not need on your ventures.
What you should pack.
When it comes to what you should pack when going on vacation, you need to know what you should look to keep in your suitcase, and what you should pack in your carry-on bag. To start, you should take note to how many days you are planning to travel for. There is no reason to pack a week’s worth of clothes if you are only planning to travel for a couple of days. Similarly, you should not pack a couple of days’ worth of clothes if you are looking to travel for a week. Now, in terms of what you should pack in your carry-on instead of your suitcase, you should be looking to pack anything that you might need, before you can access your suitcase. This includes another set of clean clothes, anything that you might need during the flight as well as some other items that could serve as use to you. It is important to not pack too many large items into your carry-n bag, as not only are the bags not massive in size, but they also need to be able to fit underneath the passenger’s seat.
What you shouldn’t pack.
In terms of what you should not pack in your carry-on, you should always evaluate what you definitely need before you have access to your suitcase, and what you could probably do without. This way, you can first pack everything that you will need prior to gaining access to your suitcase, and then pack anything else if there is any space left. Of course, you might have some issues with determining whether you will need something or not, but generally, this is a great rule of thumb to follow. Nevertheless, remember not to pack anything that is not allowed on the plane, as you may be potentially putting your life, and other passenger’s lives in danger.
Why it is important to pack wisely.
At this point you might be wondering why it is so important to pack wisely anyway. After all, you will eventually get access to your suitcase once you land, so it shouldn’t really matter what you pack. Although, the truth of the matter is that it is essential that you make sure to pack at least some spare clothes and important items in your carry-on, as you never know when something may go wrong. For instance, if you have asthma or some other problem that you have medication for, and you have not packed the necessary medication in your carry-on, it might just cost your life. Additionally, if something goes horribly wrong where you lose your luggage, without a spare set of clothes, your wallet and medication you could find yourself in a particularly troublesome situation.
With these points in mind, you should now be able to pack your carry-on bag more wisely, and hopefully prevent any issues that can happen when traveling on vacation. Whilst it is probable that you might not be able to pack everything that you need for the journey before you gain access to your suitcase, having some of the bare necessities is more than valuable.

A Glowing Vegetarian Lifestyle
This is a simple chart depicting the principle of an 80/10/10 lifestyle. The 80 is dominated by the consumption of calories from fruits while a 10 from the fractions of the remaining two 10s is from leafy greens and the last is from fats from seeds and nuts. #EatThemRaw.

Herbal Mint Strawberry Water
For you pad: Plant mint in your garden to keep nasty
bugs (like ants and flies) at bay. At the same time, you’ll be luring
in the good guys (such as honeybees and hoverflies) to help your plants
thrive.
For your palate: It’s probably no surprise that we’re going to suggest you make ultra-refreshing mojitos with your mint sprigs. Most people have the whole “mint, rum, lime and sugar” part of their mojito recipe down pat, but we have a suggestion: add strawberries. You can muddle them along with your mint leaves, and it will give your mojito a refreshing, fruity taste!
