How To Layer Winter Travel Pin 1

Layering clothes for weather below 70˚ is a skill I simply did not have.

For people who live in cold climates, this is all basic stuff. But for people like me who live in warm climates, (and who start shivering when temperatures dip below 72 degrees), figuring what exactly you should be wearing at different temperatures actually took me a lot of trial and error. If you have ever looked at the temperature at your travel destination, only to think something like, “Okay, 39˚, how cold is that? Do I need long underwear?” then this post is for you. Keep reading to find out how I layer my clothes for the most confusing temperature ranges!

Honestly, is there a worse time to get sick then when you’re on vacation?

All you want is to enjoy your trip and make the most of your time. And then, boom! A cold. Or worse. You’re away from the comforts of your home, more effort is needed just to get simple remedies, and visiting the doctor you’re familiar with isn’t an option. It has happened to all of us.

On the bright side, there are precautions we can take to reduce our chances of getting sick while traveling. I used to come home sick after every single trip, without fail. After I started doing these things, I almost never spend the last few days of my trip coughing and sneezing, and then confined to my bed for several days after getting home.

Here are my top ten tips on how to not get sick while traveling!

We’ll likely be wearing face masks for a long time. Might as well figure out ways to actually enjoy it.

And even after this is all over, you’ll probably still find me wearing my masks from time to time. I know, that’s hard to imagine coming from someone who was born in the USA and who 2 months ago believed masks belonged exclusively to healthcare workers and painters.

I sewed some of my own homemade masks in early April when masks became a requirement where I live. But they just didn’t fit right. The shape wasn’t right for my face and the masks were constantly sliding down. And therefore I was constantly readjusting and touching and defeating the purpose of wearing the mask at all. I decided I wanted to be cheap and live with my homemade masks for the few weeks they would be necessary. But that “a few weeks” assumption quickly went out the window (it’s more like a whole year now,) and so I felt it was time to invest in some masks that didn’t make me miserable. I took a chance on these, and I am glad I did!
