As we are starting to get ready for the great holiday migration.
\nHere are some handy travel hacks:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. If you forget the wall plug-in for your phone charger, check the back of your hotel TV. There might be a USB port.<\/li>\n
  2. Turn a cereal container into a trash can for your car when on road trips.<\/li>\n
  3. Scan your passport, ID, and itinerary and email it to yourself so you have a digital copy in the event of loss or theft.<\/li>\n
  4. DIY Ice pack: Saturate a sponge, place in a bag and freeze, also ensures it won\u2019t drip everywhere when it melts<\/li>\n
  5. Boost your immune system before you leave with lots of water, sleep and vitamins to help protect you from illness.<\/li>\n
  6. Book an extra day off work and don\u2019t make plans so you have time to relax, do laundry and catch up on everything at home when you return from holiday.<\/li>\n
  7. Use soap to soothe an insect bite, rub it on the bite and leave it to dry.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    We all know that ever-daunting task of packing for a holiday.
    \nHere are some packing tips to help you on your next holiday:<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Use a packing checklist<\/li>\n
    2. Roll; don\u2019t fold. This saves space and time<\/li>\n
    3. Cover your shoes with a shower cap to protect your clothes from the dirt<\/li>\n
    4. LEAK-PROOF BOTTLES: Before you pack, take the lids off liquid cosmetics and cover the top with cling film, then do the lid up tightly over the top. This prevents any annoying leaks<\/li>\n
    5. Pack the heaviest items close to the luggage\u2019s wheels.<\/li>\n
    6. Put loose wires like your charger cables in a sunglasses case<\/li>\n
    7. Put your breakables, like perfume, in a sock<\/li>\n
    8. Pack an empty tote bag for your laundry.<\/li>\n
    9. Going on a flight? Choose luggage with a distinctive pattern or colour to easily identify your luggage.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
