Leaving for any journey can sometimes be the most hectic part. We hope to make your travels more enjoyable by providing you with some hints on what to bring in your suitcase as well as what to say when you step off the plane in that foreign country.
- Leave your synthetics at home as they will prove to be too hot in summer and not warm enough in winter - bring materials that breathe. It is advisable to wear cotton in summer as the heat can be like a furnace. In winter wear layers that can be taken off during the heat of the day and put back on for cool evenings.
- Wear loose and flowing garments, which are not only modest, but also practical in a hot climate. Protecting the head and neck from loss of moisture prevents heat stroke.
- Bring comfortable shoes. You will be doing a lot of walking and temple floors are far from even. In summer, wear a hat to protect yourself from the heat of the sun.
- Above all travel light. Get wheels for your luggage and leave heavy items at home. If you don’t bring a camera you will be sorry. Sunglasses are a must.
