1. Check the hipmunk app for the best flights and fares
2. Check tripadvisor for good hotels and restaurants that will fit your budget
3. Check Booking.com for hotel rates
4. Pack 1-2 neutral colored coats and boots (if you’re visiting some place cold)
my favourite grey coat from Urban Outfitters
5. Take 2-3 scarves to brighten up your outfit
scarf from Zara and TF Sunglasses
H&M Scarf and Valentino sunnies
6. Bring flats/ sneakers that will go with the clothes you’ve packed. For long haul flights, I put my slippers in my hand carry and wear them during the flight but please make sure you have pretty toes and do not take them off during the flight or you can opt to wear socks 🙂

7. Buy mini containers for your lotion, shampoo, conditioner, creams, etc at Muji or Watsons
great for traveling – containers in all sizes from Muji

10. Take a photo of your passport with your phone
11. have a fully charged power bank in your bank and don’t forget the power cord
super power bank that can charge my phone to the brim 2-3x over
12. I also check the www.toursbylocals.com for private tours of the city I’ll be visiting.
* When I know I’ll be buying a lot from one city, I make a list of their available door to door/balikbayan box service available in the area to avoid the stress of having overweight luggage at the airport
