[ad_1]

Traveling should be fun. Staying safe takes little effort – so follow these 16 tips:

1. Travel with a friend or group. The saying, "there is safety in numbers," is certainly true.

2. Get good directions and have an excellent map. One of the bigger print ones is my favorite.

3. Make sure your map is new. Old maps carry outdated information.

4. Plan your route and let your friends / family at home know where you are going.

What To Bring When Traveling To A Tropical Country?

[ad_1]

It is nice to escape cold winter season by having a long vacation in a tropical country. But before that, you should know what to bring with you when you are travelling.

The first thing you need to do is to look for a fair-sized luggage. The size of luggage you are going to buy depends on how long you are staying in that country. You can bring a couple of clothes and just rely on the laundry services of the hotel or the inn you are staying. It is better to limit the number of clothes you are bringing with you so you still have room in your luggage for presents and souvenirs.

You would want to bring the following things as well:

1. Light clothes

The temperature in these countries is usually high all year long, with the exception of rainy seasons. Buy clothes with fresh fabrics …

Guest Friendly Hotels in Pattaya

[ad_1]

Pattaya is a city with multiple personalities. For some it is a place to learn about Thai culture, for many it is a shopping paradise, for families it offers a host of activities that everyone can enjoy and for a millions of single men, it’s a nightclub centre and a place to meet some of Thailand’s most beautiful women.

You can meet Thai girls at bars, go-go bars, at the beach or just about anywhere in this friendly town. The question that guys often ask is where do I find a guest friendly hotel. If I want to invite my new friend back to my hotel, does the hotel welcome an extra guest, is it “girl friendly” or will I be charged a “joiner fee”?

5 Star Hotels

While many people think of Pattaya as Asia’s most vibrant nightlife centre, this is just one part of the tourist activities …

What to Pack for Travelling

[ad_1]

This is what I consider to be essential items for any traveler / backpacker. These are items which I have used in my past travels, and have served me well.

Backpack

The first most obvious thing for any traveler to decide on is whether to use a backpack or a suitcase. During my first solo travel experience to Southeast Asia, Korea and Japan, I travelled with a backpack. For under 50 I bought a Eurohike 55 litre backpack with a rain cover, which came in handy during the monsoon season! The pack was top-opening, and did not really offer much by way of security. I therefore bought a special backpack transit case which I put my backpack into and made it secure from theft, but also made it secure from airport conveyor belts. I had heard that the conveyors in airports sometimes broke clips from backpacks if they were …
