Wanting to see iconic sights like the Eiffel Tower or the Sydney Opera Hosue is perfectly fine, but let’s face it—there are times when we visit an attraction simply because everyone else does it. And when we get there, we find out these famous spots are not exactly all they were cut out to be. To spare you some disappointment, we gathered a few worldwide tourist attractions you can skip, according to locals.

Champs-Élysées in Paris, France

Champs-Élysées avenue in Paris seems to always be packed with tourists, but according to many Parisians they actually do their best to avoid it – the shops and restaurants are overpriced, and it’s not the prettiest street the city has to offer. At night, it can even be quite dangerous.

Casa di Giulietta in Verona, Italy

Casa di Guilietta (the house of Romeo and Juliet’s leading lady’s house in Verona) is always overcrowded, and many tourists stick love notes to the walls with chewing gum. Not exactly the most hygienic tradition.

Myeong-Dong in Seoul, South Korea

The Myeong-Dong shopping district in Seoul appears in many travel guides, but it tends to be overcrowded with tourists. Some less busy alternatives with traditional Korean products and street food are Insa-Dong and Ikseon-Dong.

Cancun, Mexico

Cancun may be pretty, but by now the whole town has become one big tourist trap. If the Spring Break Forever atmosphere is not what you’re after, Tulum, Valladolid, and Mérida are much better options.

How do we pick the best sleeping bag? Here are a few criteria to pay attention to when shopping for one.

Where will it be used

There are many uses to sleeping bags, and it’s always best to go shopping for one with an idea of what we want to do with it. Will it mostly be used for indoors sleeping, in hostels, or RVs? Will you be carrying it on your back or are you planning to go camping in a car? Do you normally travel in a cold or warm climate? Answer these questions to help figure out the weight and insulation you need for your perfect sleeping bag.

How do I travel

Besides having an idea of whether you travel by car or by foot/public transport, ask yourself if you mostly travel alone or with your partner or spouse. If you travel with your significant other it might be nice to get sleeping bags that have the option of connecting to a double sleeping bag, keeping your options open.

My budget

While it’s important to know your travel habits and intentions to figure out what would be your perfect sleeping bag, those can end up quite pricey. Start from finding the ideal option and slowly compromise down to a realistic budget.

Sometimes, the most stressful and worrisome part of traveling apart from your actual trip can be organizing, cleaning, and storing the clothes for your journey.

If you have trouble with your clothes while traveling, here are some tips that can help make your life easier and make your travel experience less stressful.

Carry a Bag for Dirty Clothes

I always hate when, while traveling, I lose track of what’s clean and what’s dirty in my bags. This is especially dangerous when it comes to smaller items such as socks and undergarments.

To simplify your life and remove this stress, take a bag with you that you can use for the storage of your dirty clothes.

Stain Remover is a Must

Not planning on washing your clothes during the duration of your travel? That’s fine, but it doesn’t mean that your clothes are going to stay perfectly clean. If you were planning on wearing a sweater twice but you get spaghetti sauce on it your first day, that’s going to be a problem! This is why you should definitely pack stain remover and carry it with you.

Woolite Travel Packets: a Lifesaver

If you find yourself needing to wash clothes while traveling, these little guys are a godsend. You can easily wash clothes in your hotel sink with them if the need arises, and they’re super small and portable.

There are some cities and countries that are thought of to be relatively cheap, but watch out, some of them throw in hidden costs that you otherwise might overlook. If you want to be a savvy traveler, let this guide help you out.

Cover Fees

Italy’s biggest cities are huge touristic attraction, and for the most part, fairly affordable. However, one area that they can get you with hidden fees is a cover fee at restaurants. While most young people are accustomed to covers at bars or clubs, a restaurant is an odd place to find them. Although not every place has them make sure you look at the menu to see what it is before you sit down.

Water

Many countries in Europe, but especially Spain, will not serve you tap water at a restaurant. Instead, you have to buy either a bottle of water or occasionally a locally sourced mineral water that they have on a special tap. This might not seem like a big deal, but if you are a big drinker or are traveling during the summer, it can really start to add up.

Bathrooms

In many countries like the Netherlands, you have to pay to use the bathroom. Even in places like gas stations, you still will have to pay a fee, so go where it’s free whenever you can!

Whenever you go on a trip, there’s always that feeling of excitement when the bus stops or the plane lands. But, once you disembark and collect your things, what to do first? Here are some helpful tips to get your vacation started off right.

Money

The first you should do is to pull out at least some money from an ATM. Avoid converting your currency into the local one because normally you’ll lose quite a bit of money. Instead, pay the fee that your bank might charge you and take out money from an ATM.

Time Zone

If you’ve gone somewhere that’s in a different time zone, fight your jet lag and get onto the local time. If it’s night, try to go to drink some herbal tea and sleep. If it’s daytime, get a coffee or a juice and start meandering! Also, make sure your phone and watch is set to local time.

When you first get to a place, there is so much excitement and you’ll probably want to get started site-seeing right away. Make sure that you remember to take pictures because there’s a chance you might not go down the same street twice!
