  • Pamper Your Feet

  • - Your feet can suffer greatly during travel! There are lots of soothing products on the market you can easily pack to provide yourself relief at the end of a long day. I find that the Body Shop has a particularly good line of footcare, including refreshing sprays, soothing gels, foot soaking granules, peppermint lotions, etc. Often, they'll give you a sample of 1 or 2 products if you ask the sales clerk. Then you can have a tiny container of just enough product to relieve your aching feet. I'm sure other stores and brands have similar products. I find it very rewarding to take care of my feet, especially if I'm on them all day sightseeing!

  • Pants with Detachable Lengths

  • - I have found that a pair of lightweight pants that has 2 detachable lengths is very convenient. Not only are they in style, they make "changing" into shorts or long pants easy with just a zip!

  • Perfumed Cards

  • - I save the free perfumed cards and strips that often are found in department store bills and magazines and place them inside my luggage. When I am ready to travel, I throw away the old perfume card and replace it at the end of my trip with a new one. My luggage always has a pleasant smell and the perfume is never strong enough to effect the things I pack.

  • Pests in the North Country

  • - When traveling in the North Country during summer months, be sure to pack and carry an effect insect repellent. Black flies and mosquitoes in particular can get nasty, and you can never carry enough. The most effective product has a high percentage of DEET, but it has power to melt plastics and can cause reactions in some people. Sometimes soaking a work handkerchief in insect repellent and tying it around the neck, and wrapping rubber bands around shirt sleeves and pants legs at wrists and ankles, will keep the majority of the pests away.

  • Photo Log

  • - Take a small (about 4x6) notebook to log the photos you take. That way when you get them developed you'll remember where/what/when and won't have stacks of 'cathedral in England', 'house in France'. You can label the photos accurately.
