I tend to do things the hard way. My planning before a trip may not always be spot-on: it took years to learn how to pack lightly and I still struggle with bringing too many clothes, too many books, too many lenses; I’ve forgotten to book Eurostar well ahead of time and have paid a premium for that oversight; and I’ve tried so many ways to sleep on the long-haul flights and many of those early attempts, especially, have left me haggard and exhausted or still in a sleeping medicine haze on landing (which caused me to lose a beloved and precious journal and is definitely not a safe way to travel solo). I’ve learned a lot and, now, with this new section of Impressions Travelogue, I hope to share some of these lessons with you so that, perhaps, your trip will be more streamlined, calm, and yes, safer!
