πŸŽ’ Packing for Pets

Always pack a spare outfit in your carry-on in case your luggage is delayed.

Travel light β€” less luggage means less fuel consumption.

  • Carry a Power Bank: Phones die fast when you’re navigating, taking photos, or translating. Keep a spare battery handy.
  • Use Local Transport: Buses, trains, or tuk-tuks are not only budget-friendly but also a great way to experience daily life.
  • Respect Wildlife: Avoid feeding animals or getting too close. Observe from a distance.
