Travelling for the first time
Travelling for the first time
Being able to travel the world is a dream that many people would like to achieve. And if you're one of those lucky enough having the means to do so (whether for business or pleasure), then congratulations! If it's your first time out of the country, though, there's nothing to worry about; observing and exercising forethought ensures a smooth sailing travel all the way.
The key to preventing stress and all kinds of mishaps from happening is to invest in proper preparation. First off is to accomplish all your paperwork clearances, flight bookings, passport, visa approval, travel insurance (if applicable), etc. Make sure that all the necessary documents are ready and completed.
Next would be to come up with an itinerary and to do a bit of background research on the country you plan on visiting. Even if you intend on going backpacking and just roughing it, it would be best to inform yourself of what to expect and what conduct to carry out, especially in nations with several social taboos. With this now done, send copies of your itinerary, travel details and necessary passport pages to friends or family. Should anything happen to you overseas, they'd know more or less how to reach you.
Pack lightly. No matter how much you're tempted to pair your clothes with different shoes or to bring lots of gadgets along, pack only the essentials. It'll spare you from overweight baggage fines and it will be much easier to keep track of your belongings.
By the time you reach the airport, make sure you have money in the currency of the country you're traveling to and in US dollars. The reason for the latter is that it's pretty much a universal currency. Do a last minute double check of your documents and belongings. When you've boarded the plane, you can now sit back, relax and enjoy the trip stress-free. Happy Holidays!
