FAQ
Here are some things you should never forget about when traveling.
When traveling, you will often find yourself in situations without the ability to make informed decisions. So be prepared to improvise.

What size luggage should I carry?
The amount of luggage you take depends on the length of your trip. If you are traveling by plane, you only need hand baggage, usually less than 20kg. However, if you are taking a train or bus, then you will need more space.
At the airport, you will receive a form that you need to complete with your details. This will include information like the weight of your bag and whether you need assistance in checking them in.
You should always check this before leaving home. You might find yourself stuck waiting in line for hours as everyone else inspects their luggage.
It is best to travel light because you never know what might happen. For instance, if your bag is lost or stolen, you won’t have any clothes.
What cheap accommodations are available when traveling abroad?
You can find cheap accommodation in hostels, hotels and guest houses as well as bed & breakfasts.
Hostels are affordable and provide dorm-style rooms in which guests share bathrooms and living spaces.
Hotels are typically located in tourist areas.
