Plan and pack like a pro

Travelling is one of the best things that a person can do to make his or her life a bit happy and relieved. You can go with your friend circle or alone or with your family and just spend some wonderful time. Here are some tips and tricks which will help you a lot to make your experience a memorable one. Just have a look!

1.       Make a good seat-mate choice

Well, if you are travelling alone and by any chance you get the opportunity to choose your seat-mate, just be very sure you sit away from babies or a huge group of friends or women. The last one is because they always tend to visit the toilet more, making it a quite uncomfortable journey.

2.       Sleep or at least pretend sleeping!

If you face an embarrassing moment, such as farting in the bus, when there is complete silence, pretend that you are sleeping. This will help you to manage at that time and get away with all the embarrassment and awkwardness.

3.       Pack less

Try to carry minimum stuff with you, if you really want to enjoy your journey. Otherwise, you will just be busy with handling your side bags or trolley bags or slings.

So, what are you waiting for? Pick up a destination and get going.. Have a nice trip!
