Travelling opens you up to a new place, its people, different food, allow you to learn from different culture, tradition, and history. It is about knowing your boundaries and capacities by pushing you outside your comfort zone. The idea of vacation brings along an adrenaline rush, thinking of all the new experiences.

But we cannot detach exhaustion from traveling. Day-Long sightseeing, trekking or indulging in adventure sports can leave you fatigued. The difference in the environment (food, air, water) is added on to which our body reacts. Nevertheless, there are ways to help you keep your energy levels pumping high and prevent you from diseases throughout the experience.

1. The EHR Rule

2. Ensure Safety

Going on a road trip with family or friends? Ensure you are loaded with enough resources not only for yourself but your vehicle as well. Unfamiliar roads can bring unforeseen circumstances. Have a good understanding of your machine to be able to do basic repair works yourself. Carry the right tool bags having a good amount of space and good durability to sustain its rough usage. When it is in our control, we can make the best out of the journey.

While talking about road trips, deciding upon a right conveyance is also imperative. Be it a short trip or long you need to know what suits best for the travel. This depends on the road conditions. For ones who love traveling around the world in bikes, a Honda CRF can be the most enduring and apt for a tar road, gravel road or even mud and sand. It is a light-weighed motorcycle with mechanism needing no intricacy to understand and can withstand the harsh journey.

Now, the least we can anticipate while traveling is getting robbed or getting attacked. To make certain that does not happen, know the place through travel experiences shared by tourists. Besides knowing what to do or where to eat also know those streets you need to avoid.

3. Know What to Carry

Air travel or railway travel timings are not under your control. A long dragged travel means a longer duration of immobility. Do you know what can help? Chocolates! Yes, read it right. Chocolates, especially dark chocolates, have proven to be beneficial for travelers as it contains flavonoids which are also found in fruits, tea, and red wine. Flavonoids have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties which can support your cardiovascular and nervous system. Nonmoving may lead to a blood clot or vein dysfunction in legs. And we thought chocolates are only to pamper someone. Do carry a chocolate box now when you know your travel is going to last for hours.

You need to carry a first aid box beside packing all other fancy items. Medicines for any common ailments like cold, cough, stomach ailments, acidity, band-aids, and ointments to prevent from bug bites could all be initial aids before you see a professional.
