  • Take a Travel Book With You

  • - Always use travel books like 'eyewitness' or 'Fodor's'. Carry them with you to know all the best spots, cheapest restaurants, best food, places to stay, and hundreds of insights about your destination.

  • Take Care of Your Health

  • - Plan carefully before traveling. Pack coldeeze, or zinc lozenges to fight off colds. (Builds up your immune system.) Carry those little bottles of germ killer lotions in your purse or pocket. (These are handy to wash your hands before eating out at a restaurant.) Also, don't forget to get a flu shot before leaving. It might be a good idea to get a pneumonia vaccine shot, too. That shot is good for 6 years.

  • Tip for Tent Campers

  • - Cooking is always hard for the tent camper. An easy solution is a griddle. It's all you need to cook your bacon, eggs, burgers, hotdogs, toast, pancakes, hot sandwiches - and a lot more! It's small and easy to pack. Get rid of your bulky propane portable stove.

  • Top Ten Holiday Travel Safety Tips

  • - There are some very important safety precautions you should follow when traveling. Being prepared in case of emergency on the road could mean the difference between life and death, both for you and for your fellow travelers.

    Below are ten tips for safe travel to assure you arrive at your destination in one piece:

    1. Make sure your vehicle is ready for a trip by checking all fluids, air in the tires, your spare tire, and fuel.

    2. Be sure you have an emergency first aid kit in your car at all times. Even if you and your passengers don't require first aid during your journey, you could very well come across a fellow traveler who does.

    3. Place a map in your glove compartment.

    4. Be sure you carry your cell phone and a car cell phone charger.

    5. Pack non-perishable snacks in case of a breakdown, such as raisins, crackers, nuts, and other protein-packed snack foods that will not spoil.

    6. Blankets should definitely be in the trunk of your car at all times during winter months, even if you aren't traveling long distances.

    7. Another thing you must have in your car at all times, even when not traveling, but especially during road trips, is a flashlight. Be sure to check the batteries, and even carry a new pack of batteries with you, just in case.

    8. A smart thing to carry is snow chains for your tires.

    9. An AAA or other road-side assistance membership is invaluable, especially when traveling. If you break down, they will assist you on the road or have a wrecker there to pick you up in no time.

    10. Careful driving. This is the most important thing to carry with you - an attitude of defensive driving and calm demeanor while on the road.

    Health and Safety Source is your source for personal, industrial, commercial, and specialized health and safety needs.

  • Travellers' Water Boiler

  • - When planning to stay in a small inn with no microwave or coffee maker, check local power requirements and bring a traveller's water boiler. This comes handy when you need a hot drink or a cup of noodles. It works especially when you are visiting a high-cost city. A small water boiler only costs the price of 6-8 hot drinks.
