If you worry about the expensive places to spend your weekend, check out for the nearest resort or private pool with inexpensive entrance fee. You can bring packed lunch and snacks to save on meal expenses. You may choose to commute, but others prefer to hire a private car to bring them to their destination without much hassle.
You can enjoy family outings without spending a lot; you just have to learn to look for cheaper alternatives as if you’re looking for discount perfumes in the market.
What do you usually do during a long car trip? Are you the type who easily falls asleep when you hit the car seat or do you spend the long drive listening to an audiobook or your favorite songs on your 8gb ipod nano. Me, I spend more time sleeping when I travel. On the other hand, I also listen to music to keep me company. I’m fond of listening to the music of the 80’s, 90’s and some contemporary songs. Most of the time, relaxing music put me to sleep during a long trip.
Packing your things for travel requires a bit of handy work and knack at creativity to make sure you don’t end up in disarray en route to your dream destination, or worse discovering when you arrived that you have not packed some of the essentials you needed while traveling. To be a pack-savvy junkie, you might want to consider the following tips:
· Pack light and bring only what is necessary, so you might want to skip that paperback, you won’t need it anyway when traveling to a new place
· Pack your stuff in order so you’d know where to find things when needed. Wrap a set of clothings, a pair of shorts, a shirt or a blouse together with your underthings, in individual baggies, for easy retrieval. You can easily place your soiled stuff in those baggies after use, too.
· Be organized, so make sure you make a list of all the things you need to pack and bring so you won’t end up forgetting something.
· Make you’re your valuables are in a safe container. You can also bring some cable ties so the cables for your cameras and phones are orderly even in transit.
Keep these tips in mind and packing for a trip will be easy-breezy!
