They say the English only ever talk about the weather and I guess it is true.  We have been gripped in cold temperatures for the past five days and there is probably more to come.  If you are travelling over the holidays the best way to keep your luggage weight down is to get yourself one of the top quality fleece jackets that weigh almost nothing but keep you very warm.  If the weather turns warm they will no weigh you down.

Welcome back!

It is a fact of life that most of us have far more plans for travelling than we can actually afford.  That is one of the reasons I have started working with an advertising company called bloggerwave, who offer creative bloggers the chance to gain extra income from their travel websites by featuring the occasional post promoting a relevant service to the blog readers. I think this is a great way of increasing my travel budget.

To avoid making yourself obvious to potential pickpockets and scammers, stay calm and take your time.  Running around gesturing at the directions or shouting across to your travelling companion will just mark you out as a target.

A friend of mine recently travelled to Italy and while she was there she noticed some very food quality baby clothes at low prices. She had driven through France by car so she was able to carry quite a lot back with her regardless of the luggage weight. So she bought a job lot and is now selling them to friends at home. She has covered the cost of the vacation!
