  • Hostel Necessities
    - Don't forget to take a padlock and keys (spare set) for any day(s) you might want to spend in a hostel. The hostel may have a locker for your gear and a facility to padlock the door.

  • How to Pack Light
    - The best dressed travelers travel the lightest. They pack coordinating clothes in wrinkleproof knits and take nothing that doesn't serve at least two purposes. For example: I always pack a pair of workout tights in black. I can wear them under a dressy sweater with heels to dine out, and a T-shirt to lounge around my hotel room or for a jog.

  • If it Makes You Feel More Secure ...
    - Don't leave home without disinfectant wipes! Clorox/Lysol have large containers for their wipes, so I rip off a few and put them in ziplock bags to keep them from drying out. As soon as I get to a hotel room, I wipe down anything that I will touch or that I know others have touched: door knobs, light switches, remotes, faucets, phones, etc. Not only does it give you piece of mind, it could prevent you from catching colds or other unpleasant things that could ruin your trip! (note: read instructions carefully - some wipes contain bleach and should not be used on certain surfaces or on things like dishes and utensils).

  • Important Medications
    - When packing, don't forget over-the-counter meds. What I find works best is the following combination: 1 small bottle of Neoproxin Sodium (Aleve), decongestant, and/or Day/NiQuil, Exedrin Migraine (women, also useful if you are sensitive to air pressure in flight cabin), and Pepto Bismol.

  • Increasing Shower Water Pressure
    - I hate not having enough water coming from the shower head. RoboGrip or ViceGrip pliers allow you to remove the shower head and pluck out the flow restrictor.
