To
be quite honest we pack a lot of stuff before we travel and then when we arrive
at the destination we miss out on plenty of things. I have been traveling alone
for quite some time now and made the same mistake couple of times myself. So
far I have decided to provide you with 5 travel hacks which are essential for
Indian as well as Foreign travelers traveling across India.
Nowadays
most of the travelers carry a lot of electronic gadgets with them including
cameras, Mobile or cell phones and perhaps many other things as well. Here are
the top 5 tips or hacks that will help any traveler who are travelling across
the Country.
1. MULTI PLUG TRAVEL ADOPTER OR 3 PIN PLUGS
I
will keep the multi-plug on top of all the other things believe it or not I
have faced this problem many times. Many hotels which you book have a single
power socket, and if you are traveling with a group or even alone, you have
more than one items to charge. So a multi-plug travel adopter definitely comes
in handy in which you can charge more than one electronic gadget. These travel
adopters comes in different shapes and sizes and thus carrying them isn't that
hard either
There
is a solution for those who are on a tight budget as well if you have faced the
similar problem then next time when you travel try to carry a three pin plug
with you. A 3 pin plug is small, handy and cheap. Just take it inside your bag
when you travel and use it when you need it to charge multiple items.
2. POWERBANKS
Powerbanks nowadays are a necessary item for
everyone, just plug in your electronic gadgets and charge them on the go. There
are still many remote places across India where they rely on solar power, and
quite honestly they are not sufficient enough to charge some energy consuming
electronic goods like big battery phones. So do not forget to carry a powerbank
with you next time.
3. OFFLINE GOOGLE MAPS
The
next thing on our list definitely won't cost you a penny except for your Mobile
data. Google Maps have helped travelers since technology was made accessible to
everyone. The best thing about the offline Google maps is that you can download
them quickly on your phone before you leave for your destination and can use it
even when there are no Internet connections.
Thus
next time when you are on the road alone just download the map before you leave
your home and never get lost. All you need to do is just download the map and
access it anytime you need. But if you are not a tech savvy then I am afraid
you will have to depend on plain old paper map.s.
4. CAR CHARGER
Although
this equipment might seem unnecessary for many while they travel without their
car a small car charger actually might come in handy. If you go somewhere by a
vehicle for a long distance, you can carry a little car charger along with you which
can be used to charge your electronic gadget or mobile phones while you rent a
car to reach your destination. Trust me it has worked for me many times and the
best thing about the portable car charger is that they are small and handy and
does not burn a hole in your pocket either.
5. LIFESTRAW

Although
like my previous travel gadgets this thing is little different but is a life
saver. Most of you have already heard about the Lifestraw by now. This small
but useful device comes in handy if you are traveling to some remote areas
where you might not get fresh drinking water just use the straw and drink it
from anywhere you want including streams.
I
have used this thing couple of times as well, and the lifestraw can purify upto
1000 liters of water efficiently. Once you buy it, I am sure it can last and
provide drinking water supply for the user for a year.
