So I’m lying in bed in the amazing apartment we have in Omis and have decided to share some travel wisdom… Maybe I should title this: “how to stay married on your honeymoon” heh.

Patience – for your travelling partner even if he’s your husband and he does epic things… Because he does lotsa good stuff too and leaving you behind in a foreign airport like Zagreb is forgivable -.- also for people and other cultures because they are putting up with your weird ass too!!!!
Wifi/cellular access – you don’t need a tour guide, a map or miss out if you can get online. Seriously… I love google and I love google maps. That shit cray
An appetite – there is no effking point being on a diet or not trying at least a bite of everything… You never know if you’ll ever get another taste! Eat everything and be adventurous!
Good walking shoes – comfort over fashion people… I already have 4 bloody blisters and trust me, they ain’t fun
A sense of direction – because going around in circles is a waste of time and you’ll end up frustrated and fighting!
A plan – it doesn’t need to be a 4056374 line spreadsheet complete with blurbs but you’ll need to determine if you want to shop or sightsee or go to museums ... A rough agenda or guide will go a long way. Ex; we took our uncultured asses to the British museum PURELY to look at mummy’s. In and out. Too easy.
Check if it’s a public holiday! – we never made it to borough market because it was closed when we went! God damn bank holiday!
GET A SELFIE STICK – that shit is amazing! And yes, uber Asian tourist 101 but if I counted the looks of jealousy when I used my selfie stick to get ridiculous pics no one else could in dizzying heights, that alone was worth the stigma of token Asian
Be brave – even if you didn’t plan to jump off a 15feet cliff into Ice cold waters, DO IT! You only live once! Make it a trip to remember!
