Travel Hacks: De-stress your vacation

• Roll your clothes rather than fold them. You will have more suitcase space and it prevents creases.
• Pack a travel guide. You can’t always guarantee cell service and guides in your language might be hard to come by.
• Take a picture of all your important travel documents with your cell phone. Include plane tickets, boarding passes, passports and booking confirmations.
• Grab yourself a multi travel adaptor.
• When booking, use incognito mode on your browser and clear your cache. Travel sites keep a check on whether you have been there before. If you have, up go the prices.
• Get free wifi at airports.
• Learn the common scams where you are going.
• Planning to use your credit cards abroad? Let your credit card company know. The last thing you need is them thinking the card has been stolen and cancelling it.
