  • Tube for Posters and Prints

  • - If you want to buy posters and prints in the location you are heading to, I suggest taking a tube like architecture students use to carry plans in. I'm a university student, and I found these big black plastic carrying tubes at my university bookstore. They are cheap, and sturdier than the cardboard tubes you get at the post office. They don't take up too much room, and you can stuff them with small items for the trip over. For the trip back, you can mail the tube home ahead of you to make room for more goodies!

  • US Residents - Take New US Dollars

  • - If You Are From the United States: If you aren't changing all your Dollars to the currency you need overseas before you leave, make sure you have the new American bills with you. Many overseas banks will no longer accept the old $100s or $20s due to conterfeiting.

  • Use Your Free E-Mail Account

  • - Instead of only photocopying all your important documents and carrying them with you, scan everything and e-mail the scans to your e-mail account as attachments. Use a free e-mail account such as hotmail.com so you can access your documents from anywhere in the world.

  • Velcro to the Rescue

  • - Sew or iron on some Velcro to the pockets of your swimming shorts - and your loose change, keys etc. stay safe while you swim. Can also be used in trousers to stop pickpockets.

  • What Happens if you Lose your Travel Documents?

  • - Always scan and send an email to yourself of your travel documents, such as passport and tickets. If you lose them, you will have easy access (in most places around the world!) to the Internet, and you will be able to check your email to obtain the relevant information. You can also copy these onto a USB, although I would password secure the folder.
