It’s that time of the year again.  The sun is at its peak, suitcases are being zipped and aircraft are getting ready to fly off. The blissful vacation season has arrived!

Traveling isn’t that hard as most people make it sound. Here are a few hacks that will help you get rid of the hassle and instead focus on making your traveling experience worthwhile.

Plan Ahead

Unless you’ve got your private jet all fueled up and stationed in the backyard of your Beverly Hills mansion, planning ahead can help you stay within your budget and save big.

There are several sites and apps that let you track the cheapest travel dates and hotel deals. The mantra is simple; the earlier you plan and book, the more you save.

Just to hand you a few more direct trips; Tuesdays are usually the cheapest days to fly on. Experts say that erasing your browser history can help you avoid getting high fares in your Google search.

Travel Light

If you’re a frequent traveler, you already know how important this is. And if you know that, you also know how difficult it is to follow.

But the key to having a smooth journey is to travel light. This takes away most of your exhaustion from lugging around your baggage everywhere and also leaves space to return with all your new shopping!

Pack Smartly

Yayvo’s new travel line features including pouches and bags; these take minimum space and offer maximum storage. The luggage variety, along with being very spacious, is also versatile enough to fit your travel needs no matter where you are headed. Delivering the #YayVoYahanVahan promise, Yayvo’s products are adaptable to the snow in Antarctica and to the sandstorm in Dubai.

Stick to the essentials when it comes to your travel look. Get that perfect pair of sunglasses, comfortable shoes, a backpack, and accessories to throw on with anything to get the show on the road!

Capture it All

You know what’s even better than travelling and collecting memories? It’s to have your adventures captured for you.

It’s imperative to live in the moment and enjoy what you’re experiencing, but it’s also best to ensure you don’t regret not capturing these precious moments later on.

Collect those cruise tickets, movie stubs and café receipts. Get yourself a phone camera lens, selfie-stick and safety covers from Yayvo to eliminate the need to carry expensive equipment everywhere. Don’t forget to get a good power bank and fast charger so that when you see that famous celebrity walking down the street in a foreign country, you can avoid that “…but my phone is dead” situation.

Go Above and Beyond

As important as planning a trip is, it can often be very restricting. Especially for all those spontaneous souls out there, the best thing to do would be to keep your plans open-ended.

Yayvo has partnered with a few forums that let you expand your plans. The Travel Diary and Let’s Home are a couple of travel guides that can save you last minute or guide you on must-visit places at your favorite destinations.

You also have the option to explore new and adventurous options at FindMyAdventure.com if you prefer sticking to a group and leave the planning to someone else. It’s vital to be able to have options – but too many options is never a good thing, is it?

Discover As Much as You Can

This is the most important hack. Let those few weeks in a different place be your solace, therapy and thrill. Don’t shy away from new experiences, learn about new cultures, make new friends and collect memories that will last a lifetime.

Whether it’s that constant pair of jeans, a Swiss knife or a travel wallet – get all your travel essentials from Yayvo Travel Essentials early on so you can stop worrying.

Happy travelling!
