In this episode, Yamel covers:
- The importance of starting your planning early - keep notes in your phone of where you want to visit and consider a spreadsheet to keep everything organized and in one place.
- Delegating someone in the family to be across travel documents and, importantly, make sure your passports have 6-months of validity or this could scupper your travel plans!
- Preparing for different eventualities is key, from checking the local weather of your destination, packing things for your kids’ entertainment should there be a flight delay and ensuring you have potential medication on you should someone get sick. Grab your Summer Medicine Toolkit Guide here.
- The importance of flexibility! Keep in mind things take longer when travelling in a family group and prepare for the unexpected - you may have delays or changes of plan but keeping an open mind and staying flexible will ensure Summer success.
And much more!
