A vacation can be a magical time. An opportunity to get away from the everyday rat race, and to experience all sorts of beautiful, exciting, and new vistas.

For many of us, the annual vacation getaway is something that we look forward to all year long, and try to experience as deeply and enthusiastically as possible when it comes along.

Of course, there are always better and worse vacations, and there are various things you can do that could contribute to making a particular vacation experience either significantly more, or significantly less, positive and life affirming.

Here are a handful of tips for feeling great on your next vacation.

  1. Pack outfits and personal grooming products that help you to feel sharp and confident

One sure way of putting a damper on your vacation would be to turn up at your destination without any of your regular personal grooming products, or favourite outfits, and – subsequently – to find yourself feeling less confident than you would when walking around town back home.

Of course, the primary point of a vacation is not to put on a fashion show or anything like that – but you can still be sure that the overall experience will be more positive, if you pack outfits and personal grooming products that help you to feel sharp and confident for the duration of your trip.

You might even prepare a special travel kit in advance, including things like strong hold hair paste, and a selection of your favourite accessories that don’t weigh much and are easy to transport.

  1. Stay well fed and catch up on some sleep

In all the excitement of a vacation, it can sometimes happen that we end up missing out on sleep, eating too little – or eating too irregularly – and consequently end up feeling moody and fatigued while travelling.

While you should definitely keep yourself in check so that you don’t just spend all day in your hotel room sleeping and snacking, you should certainly also do what you can to catch up on some sleep and stay well fed, even if you’re hopping from place to place on a dynamic backpacking adventure.

It’s easy to underestimate how much things like regular meals and a good night sleep can impact our overall moods.

  1. Push your boundaries and try things you’ve wanted to do for a while

One of the best ways of turning a vacation into a great and memorable experience that you will carry with you for the rest of your life, is to use it as an opportunity to pursue personal boundaries and to try something that you’ve wanted to do for a while, but have never got around to.

Maybe on your next vacation you can go SCUBA diving, or learn to kayak, or cross some items off your bucket list – such as singing karaoke in a foreign city.

Whatever the case is for you personally, you’ll almost certainly find that you’re way more energetic, way more upbeat, and way more enthusiastic, when you arrange things in this way.
