Ash's Travel Tips


Tip #1- When packing laundry detergent in the powder form, do not, I repeat DO NOT put it in small zip-loc baggies. This may or may not look like bags of cocaine and may or may not get you a nice visit from Custom’s officers.

Luckily, I packed mine in tupperware containers.

Tip #2- Europeans drive on the left side of the road. Therefore, when it looks like your bus driver is going to run into an on-coming vehicle or bicyclist, do not yelp or screech in your seat. This draws unnecessary attention to the fact that you’re a tourist and from Texas (the cowboy boots alone just weren’t enough).

Tip #3- Plugs over here are not the same, and your hair equipment WILL NOT work on the same voltage. It will overheat in 2.3 seconds and start burning anything in sight (i.e. my bangs).

As I hold an ice-bag to my head and the aroma of burnt hair fills our room, you can tell that I had to learn this the hard way… 

TEXAS FIGHT FORVER
