handy tips voor women and travelling budget with c

countdown: 3 days to go: what is good to be done before you catch the plane?

How you can spend less time behind the mirror and still looking reasonable in fotos? This is lifetime problem especially for women. You travelling with kids how needs your attention and something to do most of the time. Actually, I have to say that it is certainly more girls thing to catch attention. Well, selfish or not I'm starting with myself. My hair is typical scandinavish thin and colorless hair. I am little bit lazy to go to hairdresser (even I get use to be one 5-year-long). Earlier,when I travelled the world with my 20kg stuff with me, I came to conclusion to keep braiding during travelling. Ah, how much it safe space and weight in your luggages!! No hairdryer, foams or sprays needed. Only some piece of tissue or elastics to be able to tight it up is enough. It is cool, no need daily washing (easy, when you're doing budgettrip or staying in wilderness. when you come and go out from the sea, no worries. Hair is always nice. but be careful, if you make it very long and it's wet, because then you have suddenly 1kg more weight on you head. At least it feels like that. It is heavy duty for your neckmuskels to keep your head up. But warning!!! If you never had them before, do it min. 2 weeks before to be able to get use to it in any case. first few days are a little bit less confortable, because they are very tight. Few days and it wil be better. You can also thinking of doing then while you travelling. Maybe cheaper, but mostly not nicer, at least experiences what I had. Even too thin and you look half bold or they making it sooo tight that your eyeballs are braded as well. Well, free face lift certainly. :laughing: But do you want to spend half of your trip in pain? or spend a full day sitting on that same chair? No, no thanks! advise is to let it done good in time. Same thing with coloring you hair. If you go to tropics is no use to take highlights before. You wil get them free for sure. Just resassure to have good protection oils or cream also for your hair.

wel, this was just a hint for those , who wants to have vacation also from daily fighting with your hair. other little woman-thing are eyeslashes and eyebrows. Eyebrows I color always before leaving, no need to paint them every day. Ideaal for blondies again! Eyelashes they have those extensions what stays 3-4 weeks. also handy if you don't have sensible eyes, but even some permanent colour gives little more deepness for your eyes. so, these little tricks and you're almost make-up-free. Ah, what a freedom! The best part of it is of course photos of yourself, this time you can even use them in album :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

ok, then there's children. we're going to Seychellen where most of things are imported and that wants to say = expensive! :shocked_face_with_exploding_head:Depends where you live, but hier In Holland we have shops where you can buy for example swimming ring or airbed for few euros. if you looking for them near beach, you have to pay 10 time more. So, best way to safe costs and letting kids to have some fun and nieuwe things: do it just few days before you're leaving and back them straight away into luggages. This helps! Kids happy, you happy and saved few more euros to spend on your trip. Think of divingglasses, swimmingrigs, ball, frisbees, waterballs , which are light and small. Otherwise you wil be in bankcrub after first days in paradise. ;D

Because of Miska's diabetes we also take sugarfree limonade with us, in case you can't get any sugerfree drinks from supermarket or restaurants. Other less common product is dextros (fruitsugar when he is going too low too fast with his bloedsugars) All these things safe from you tens of euros certainly and gives him chance to have "relaxed"vacation without special dieet.

and at least, let kids to choose their own clothes.Then you never need to hear on the way: oooo, I don't like this shirt, I look like awfull in it. :tired_face::triumph:

Just make list together how much and which clothes you need for 2 weeks,and then snip still half of it away, because most of the time you stay at the beach or swimming pool (if you're at beachvacation of course).

one of the most important thing what is forgotten very often is to have few memorycards and enough batteries to you're camera and you're mobiel. You can get them from airports too, but you pay some more.

I hope you have got some tips from here; how to safe money, when travelling with kids or make it easier with your womanproblems. ;)
