Avoid doing things on holiday that you could do at home. Embrace local dining and truly experience the place.<\/li>\n<li>Pack light. Depending on your destination, you might end up carrying your bag around. Packing less makes for quicker packing and unpacking. Stick to a colour scheme to easily mix and match your clothes.<\/li>\n<li>Delegate responsibilities. Have someone manage things at home and work while you\u2019re away.<\/li>\n<li>Limit devices. If you need to be reachable, pick one communication channel. \u201cI\u2019ll check texts, so message me there if you need me.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t over-schedule. Create a to-do and to-don\u2019t list. Don\u2019t rush to make it to the spa. Save the massages for home and leave your holiday schedule open to fully enjoy the moment. The same goes for dining.<\/li>\n<li>Post on social media once you\u2019re home. Simple.<\/li>\n<li>Use a luggage tracker. It\u2019s a smart idea to track your bag in case the airline can\u2019t find it.<\/li>\n<li>Keep Zip-Lock bags handy. They\u2019re versatile \u2013 from storing wet clothes to holding ice for an injured companion.<\/li>\n<li>Pack healthy snacks. They\u2019re good for both your body and your budget.<\/li>\n<li>Stay hydrated. Drinking water is essential. Buy plenty when you arrive, and aim to finish it before you leave.<\/li>\n<li>Enjoy yourself! You\u2019re on holiday.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong><em>Compiled by Warren Hawkins Source: Iconic Life<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There is nothing like travelling in summer, whether you\u2019re on your way to the beach, or just getting away from the city, a summer break-away is often a much-needed one.
