When leaving to go on holiday clean your house before you leave, when returning you’ll be a lot less stressed than if you come back to a messy home

Get a Heat-It smartphone powered insect bite healer. You can't always prevent getting bitten by mosquitoes, but you can treat the itch with this. Each application works within a few seconds and lasts around 10-12 hours. I've used it for 3 holidays so far and it's worked wonders.

Pick up your sunscreen & toiletries from a well-known chemist airside at the airport. No need to worry about the 100ml liquid limit and you don't have to worry about breaking your carry-on weight limit either!

Roll your clothes instead of folding them, you'll get so much more into your suitcase and keep your baggage charges low.
