βœˆοΈπŸ€” What are your favorite traveling tips?

Some of mine:

πŸ›„ Only bring carry-on luggage. Often cheaper + less time waiting
πŸ›’ In case of doubt, don't bring it. You can buy it at destination too
🎫 Ticket prices vary wildly. Do your research. (kiwi.com momondo.com etc)

πŸ’¬ Meet people through Meetup, Couchsurfing, Nomad List, Tinder
πŸ“… Stay flexible by not planning too far ahead (my preference anyway)
🏨 Pre-book hotel/airbnb for only first few days, research more when at destination
πŸ’³ Use @RevolutApp for easy payments (not a sponsor haha)

βœ… Make checklists for prep before flight, and arrival
πŸ’§ Stay hydrated during flights
πŸ› Select specific in-flight meal during check-in. You'll get food first + your choice. AFAIK there's never an additional cost for choosing beforehand
🎧 Noise-cancelling headphones for flight

πŸ—Ί Add trip to nomadlist.com to receive arrival email with local tips (which sim card to get, tipping percentage, etc)
πŸ‘• You can wash clothes during travel. No need to pack weeks worth of clothes.
πŸ’Ί Use SeatGuru.com to find the best seats in plane
πŸ‘Β Enjoy

I learned many of these tips from @levelsio (@nomadlist), and @jelmerdeboer's book: thuisblijvenisduurder.com
