The post 3 Packing Tips for Outdoor Festivals appeared first on Traveler Master.
]]>Always Bring Warm Clothes
You may well have checked the weather forecast and seen that it’s due to be hot and sunny the whole time you’re there. However, weather can always change, and even if it is super hot then often in the evenings and nighttime the temperature can drop suddenly.
Use Smaller Compartments in Your Bag
There’s nothing worse than being in a hot tent and having to rummage through a big bag to find something you need. If you have smaller bags within your bag and work out some kind of system then it will be much easier to find things and you can save lots of time and energy.
Bring Spare Underwear
Due to the nature of festivals, you’ll likely end up getting yourself and your belongings dirty or wet at some point, so having spare socks and underwear to rely on in these moments is a lifesaver.

]]>Suit Case
The benefit of a traditional suitcase is that you don’t have to carry it or hold it all of the time. The wheels on the case mean that you can roll it along as you move through an airport or train station, and this is generally less exhausting than lugging around a holdall or a backpack. However, if there are unavoidable stairs—or if you’re in a sudden rush to catch a flight or a train—a suitcase can become more of a hindrance than a help, as you will need to lift it and its hard exterior can make it much heavier than a softer holdall. A suitcase is a good option if you’re taking quite a lot with you on vacation, especially if it’s going into the hold.
Holdall
A holdall is a great option if you’re traveling through a smaller airport or train station, as carrying it long distances can get tiring. It also works well if you’re only going away for a few days, as most holdalls can’t carry that much luggage. Another plus is that they can be squashed down to fit into most airline’s cabin baggage requirements, so you can avoid paying for hold luggage if you pack sensibly.

If you know that you’ve got quite a walk between the airport and your hotel, or if you think you’ll need to move quickly through crowds, a backpack is a great option to carry your luggage. Once it’s on your back you should barely notice the weight, and like the holdall most can be squashed down to fit the cabin baggage requirements. Do be aware that if you’re intending to speed walk with your backpack on in a warmer climate, you can get very overheated. It’s also good to remember that museums and some shops won’t want you bringing it in, just in case some precious artifacts get knocked onto the floor.

]]>The post 3 Hair Products You Need in Humid Environments appeared first on Traveler Master.
]]>Hair Oil
Hair oil is great at smoothing down frizz and taming flyaways, and it can also seal the hair follicles against that pesky humidity. It’s best applied to damp hair, at the end of your styling regime. You can also smooth a tiny amount over dry hair, but take care as just a bit too much can leave your hair looking oily and lank.
Leave-In Conditioner
If you’re someone who can normally wash your hair and go, you may find that you need to allow a little more styling time in a hot, humid environment. Once you’ve washed and conditioned your hair, applying a bit of leave-in conditioner can really help combat frizz and lack of volume. If your hair is fine or shorter, start with a dime-sized amount, or opt for a lighter spray-in conditioner. Rake it through your damp hair with your fingers before drying.
Dry Shampoo
For some people, a hotter, more humid environment can actually lead to increased oil in their hair, resulting in a greasy look. Pack a small bottle of dry shampoo, to combat oily roots. This will also save you time when you’re on vacation, so you can focus on checking out another bar or lounging by the pool, rather than re-washing and styling your hair.

]]>The post Things You Should Not Bring on a Short Trip appeared first on Traveler Master.
]]>Non-Versatile Clothing
When you travel for a short time, only bring clothing you can mix and match. The moment that something doesn’t go with all or most of your outfits, it’s only taking up space unnecessarily as you’ll have to take extra clothing to make up for its shortfall.
Toiletries
While some toiletries are essential, it’s important to remember that hotels give you soap, shampoo, and sometimes, conditioner. For this reason, there’s no need to bring extra supplies as this will make your bag baggier than necessary.
Large Bottles
If you are bringing all of your toiletries, avoid packing large bottles as you’re only going away for a brief time. Instead, pour the liquids into smaller bottles that will be sufficient for such a brief trip.
Non-Versatile Shoes
Don’t pack too many pairs of shoes as they can be quite bulky. Wear some versatile shoes that you’ll use a lot and pack those kinds of shoes that can be suitable for an array of situations.

]]>Are You Headed Somewhere with a Lot of Rain?
This may seem like an obvious thing to consider, but it’s something to be taken very seriously. If you’ve ever experienced an intense downpour in inappropriate footwear then you’ll know just how unbearable it is. If there is likely to be rain while you’re there then make it an absolute priority to have some properly comfortable, waterproof shoes.
Will You be Walking a Lot?
Maybe you’re planning to spend every day sat by the pool, or already have some bus tours scheduled so you know walking won’t be a huge part of your trip. If however, you are planning or expecting to walk far even for just a few of the days that you’re there, then comfortable, walking shoes or boots should be on your packing list.
Will You be Heading Out for the Evening?
It’s a classic issue to forget to pack for those nights out when you want to dress a bit more fancy. Maybe you’re not bothered about wearing scruffy trainers to the restaurant, but if you are then factor this into your decision-making.

]]>Consider the Materials
While you want to pack clothes that look and feel good, consider what they will look like when you unpack them from your suitcase. Some fabrics, such as linen and cotton twill, crease more easily when you pack them in a bag, so consider packing clothes that are less likely to wrinkle so that you don’t have to get them ironed.
Pack According to Your Schedule
If you know what you want to wear on which day, then make sure to pack the first thing you want to wear on top. This way, you don’t have to rummage through your bags in order to find what you want to wear, meaning that you don’t raise the risk of creasing other clothes.
Use Plastic Bags
When you pack clothes together, there is a risk of items rubbing against each other and potentially getting tangled and pulled. This can ruin your garments forever. Put plastic laundry bags between each item if you can to keep them protected throughout your travels.

]]>Bathrooms
Before you check out, do a quick scan of the bathroom to make sure you’ve packed all of your personal toiletries and disposed of any trash. It’s fine to leave the big stuff, like wiping down surfaces and cleaning the shower, for housekeeping, but there’s no reason they should need to clean up your dirty tissues. Additionally, make sure all towels are either hanging or in a pile on the bathroom floor, as wet towels can damage wooden furniture.
Beds
Bedsheets are always changed between guests, so there’s no point in taking the time to make the bed yourself. However, it’s a good idea to shake out the sheets to make sure you haven’t left any personal items, and if you’ve used additional blankets or pillows, return them to their original places.
Other Clutter
Once you’ve packed your belongings and thrown away all trash, give the room a final sweep to put any remaining miscellaneous items in their appropriate places. For example, if your room includes a kitchenette, put used dishes in the sink or dishwasher. Leave room service trays on an elevated surface so no one trips over them.

]]>The post Most Common Items That The TSA Is Asked About appeared first on Traveler Master.
]]>Razors
While razors are essential for keeping clean-shaven, the fact that they consist of a blade does pose a security risk. According to the TSA, however, some razors are permitted while others are not. Electric razors generally are allowed in carry-on bags, however, traditional blades generally must go into your checked baggage.
Deodorant
Given that deodorant can come in many forms, including spray, roll-on, and gel, some travellers are unsure if it is permitted because of liquid restrictions. Ultimately, the TSA explained that all deodorants are treated like liquids, so make sure that each bottle you bring in your carry-on bag meet liquid requirements. Otherwise, pack them in your checked bags.
Makeup
Solid and powder makeup don’t face any restrictions. Liquid makeup, however, follows the same guidelines as other liquids, so make sure they’re packed in bottles that meet liquid requirements.

]]>Too Many Shoes
The urge to have options for every occasion is understandable, but do you really need five pairs of shoes for a week? Opt for one or two versatile pairs that can take you from sightseeing to dinner without weighing you down.
Toiletry Overkill
Leave the mega-sized shampoo and conditioner bottles at home. Most hotels provide basic toiletries, and you can always pick up travel-sized essentials along the way.
(@beautybykay12)Heavy Guidebooks
No more heavy guidebooks taking up precious space in your bag. Replace them with travel apps or use online resources for maps, restaurant recommendations, and insider tips.
Expensive Jewelry
While it’s tempting to accessorize, leave the bling at home. Wearing flashy jewelry while you travel can actually increase the risk of loss or theft. Keep it simple and focus on enjoying your trip.
Excessive Clothing
Do you really need that extra sweater? Pack strategically by choosing versatile pieces that can be mixed and matched. Check the weather forecast and pack accordingly, opting for layers for flexibility.

]]>Remember Your Personal Item
What’s great with many airlines is that they allow you to bring a personal item on board the aircraft in addition to your carry-on luggage. This could be a purse, laptop bag, or even a musical instrument. Make sure to take advantage of this perk so as to maximize what you can travel with. A large tote bag could also pass as a personal item, making for a great way to bring extra baggage.
Use Packing Cubes
In addition to keeping items separate and easier to find, packing cubes are also good at compressing these items and minimizing the space they take up. Simply divide up your possessions by category and pack them in separate packing cubes before putting those in your carry-on.
Pack Cosmetics Carefully
Even if you are intent on applying makeup on vacation, remember that you don’t need to take your entire collection with you. Also, consider decanting large bottles of liquids into smaller bottles that are more appropriate for the shorter trip.
