TRAVEL TIPS I WON’T REMEMBER TO TELL MY NIECE ✈️
If you’re headed to Europe soon, here’s what no one tells you until you’re standing at security wondering why your toiletry bag suddenly looks suspicious 😅
🧴 Liquids + Toiletries:
European airports strictly enforce the 100ml liquid rule and yes, they mean each product. All your liquids must fit in one clear quart-sized plastic bag. Save yourself the stress and pre-pack your skincare, perfume, and hair products in TSA-approved bottles.
💨 Space-Saving Hack:
Instead of sitting on your suitcase to zip it, grab a vacuum seal bag and small hand pump. It’s a game changer for coats or jeans, keeps things organized, and adds space in your carry-on, especially helpful when budget airlines charge for checked luggage.
🦵 After the Flight:
Eight hours in the air = swelling in your hands, feet, and face. It’s normal! Pack compression socks, hydrate, and stretch in the aisle. Your ankles will thank you later.
🧳 Luggage Reality Check:
Foreign airlines aren’t kind to bags. The cobblestones, transfers, and rough handling can take a toll. Don’t bring a piece you love too much it will get scratched. Instead, go for something durable and hard-shell that can take a beating and still look sleek rolling through customs.
Pack smart, expect chaos, and remember, every wrinkle, dent, or overstuffed zipper is just proof you’re out there living. 🌍✨
