Travel tips

Travel tips aren’t just lists of things to pack. They’re insights gained from hundreds of hours spent at the airport, on the bus, or preparing a backup plan B. In this section, you’ll find advice that we’ve tested ourselves.

We write about how to pack efficiently for a trip that combines camping and a formal evening in a single backpack. How to save money on plane tickets without resorting to tricks that don’t work anyway, how to navigate public transportation in foreign countries, and how to handle situations when traveling stops being romantic. You’ll find guides to travel insurance, tips on travel apps we actually use. Honest reviews of gadgets we wouldn’t set out on a trip without today.

Ad space: We travel to the fullest and add a new experience to our journal every time. We search for accommodations on Booking.com and compare flight tickets and car rentals on KAYAK, where we see real prices with no hidden fees at the end of the booking process.

Choose a topic that interests you and start reading. Good preparation is half the fun and poor preparation is half the disaster.
