Welcome to the world of travel! There are so many places to go to, see and experience. It can be very exciting! No doubt, you want to make the best of your time away from home! Following are some handy tips others have found helpful, read on:

Don't tempt robbers! Especially when traveling abroad or in unsafe areas, don't make your belongings look tempting to steal. Instead of carrying around shiny new backpacks and gear, use older things. If you don't have any older gear that will work, stick some duct tape on your new pack to give the impression that it is older.

Plan your trip early and use the time to sign up for newsletters from hotels, car rentals and airlines. Use a junk email account to handle the potential clutter but take advantage of any specials that might come your way. These newsletters will often offer discounts and specials that are not available to the general public yet.

If you're about to embark on a long road trip with your children, pack one or two cookie sheets. The sheets can be used as a flat surface under coloring books or to play cards. If you have little ones, you can bring magnetic letters and numbers for educational fun.

If you're going to be driving to your destination, especially if it's a long trip, try to travel at night. There's a lot less traffic on the roads so you can most likely get their faster. And if you're traveling with kids, they can curl up in the back seat and sleep the drive away.

Keep prescription medicine in their original bottles. While space is often at a premium when packing, it is important to keep your medications in their properly labeled containers, especially when traveling internationally. Each country's drug laws can vary, and if you are prescribed a narcotic (which are more closely regulated), get a letter from your doctor to avoid potential legal troubles.

Now the choice is yours, so get out there and enjoy finding new places and people to challenge your preconceptions. Armed with a little extra knowledge now about the experience of traveling, you can expect a few less bumps on the road to your destination.
