hello today I wanted to share with you five useful travel
hacks and I picked up from traveling to over 170 countries and I think will
make your life a lot easier on the road.
so let's jump right into it the first thing I want to share
with you is to ask to sit in the front of the airplane when you arrive at the
airport.
so a lot of airlines are gonna try to overcharge you like
twenty to fifty dollars for booking your seat online but just booked any random
seat and then when you get to the airport you can always say hey I want to sit
towards the front of the plane and they'll always book it for your window or
aisle the chances of the flight being sold out are really slim and then when
the plane arrives you can be the first one out which is really important if you
are flying internationally because you can run and get to immigration first so
you don't have to wait in a long line of passengers.
hack number two is also at the airport if you don't want to
check your bag then simply just distract the airline representative and don't
let her weigh your bag so I have a backpack it's always over a kilogram limit
it's usually probably fifteen or fourteen so I just keep it on my back end in
my smaller bag I keep on my foot so it's hidden and then when I go up there the
first thing I tell her is I'm not checking any bag so then she already knows
and she wants to see it I just show her on my back but I never actually have to
weigh the back because if I weigh it they're gonna want to check it and it's so
easy to distract them distractible conversation and be like oh this Airport is
super busy right now or where the people or you look really pretty today say
whatever you want just to get them to like you because their jobs are pretty
boring to let's be honest.
hack number three is to utilize Google maps offline there's
also another app called map to stab me but I find Google Maps to be better
because it's Google so it doesn't matter where you are in the world all you
have to do is go to the search bar and type in okay maps boom when you type in
okay Maps it comes up is the whole city right here and then you just hit
download now you can do it in Wi-Fi at the hotel or anywhere that you are and
that's it you have the entire map offline so you can track the GPS ticker you can
find your restaurants find your cafe it's the best thing you can possibly do
Travel.
hack number four is to always find Wi-Fi passwords by using
Foursquare is basically a website or an app where people can share reviews and
tips for different restaurants bars hotels whatever and if you scroll down to
the tips section people often share the Wi-Fi password and I'm telling you you
can get Wi-Fi passwords for almost any Hotel any restaurant any cafe it's all
there on Foursquare check it out and last but not least travel.
hack number five is to always travel with an empty water
bottle and just refill it at the airport there's usually refill stations or you
just take it to Starbucks in the airport or you take it to the lounge and you
refill it with water this will save the environment so you don't have to keep
buying water bottles it will quench your thirst because everyone to serve to
see in airports and especially on airplanes you want to bring your own water on
because it takes them forever to bring it and they usually give you tiny cups
so always stay hydrated alright guys that's it for today five useful travel
hacks if I missed anything if you guys want to share your travel hacks please
