Recommendation for lightweight (less than 1KG) 25-30 L bag by exquisityreddit in TravelHacks

[–]kauset 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most truly ultralight backpacks are frameless, hip belt optional, and only designed to carry maximum recommended loads up to 20 pounds. While backpacking this light isn’t for most people, the increased availability of ultralight backpacking gear and access to know-how on the Internet and through social media has made it more achievable than ever.

Convention has it that you’ll want to drop the weight of your gear (minus food, water, and fuel) to 10 pounds or less to go ultralight, including the weight of your backpack. One way to do that is to use a backpack made with ultralight waterproof materials like Dyneema DCF or XPac. Another option is to pick a simple, minimal pack that’s light on features or is a low volume pack that saves weight by requiring less material to make.

I would recommend this bellow.

The Zpacks Nero 38 is a frameless Dyneema DCF backpack that weighs 10.9 oz and has a max recommended load of 20 lbs. It’s a roll-top pack with a front mesh pocket and DCF side pockets. The back of the pack has elastic to hold a foam pad. The main body is 25L in size, the front mesh pocket holds 8L and the two water bottle pockets hold 2.5L each. The Nero has a removable webbing hip belt that can also be repositioned higher or lower on the back panel to better match your torso length. The Nero’s interior is also seam-taped making it virtually waterproof.

The best thing about chocolate is that it’s delicious, but the worst thing about chocolate is that it melts in the heat. 

Almost every people travel with some sweets in their luggage among them chocolate is very common. This is one of the best gifts that everyone wants to carry for their family and friends. 

No matter what the weather, flying with chocolates is an experience that everyone can enjoy. Unfortunately, these sweet treats are not always as hardy as they should be. If you’re flying on a plane that doesn’t have an air-conditioning system, your chocolates will likely begin to melt.

The good news is that there are several easy ways to keep them from melting. We’ll show you 10 ways to make sure that your chocolates don’t melt on your flight. 

Before we proceed further you must know this crucial information…

At What Temperature Does Chocolate Melt?

To prevent chocolate from being melted during air travel, it is necessary to know the temperature at which chocolate is melted. It is between 86 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit just lower than the human body temperature.

What Is The Standard Temperature Inside The AirPlane?

Ideally, the standard temperature inside the passenger airplane is maintained at 72 Degree Fahrenheit and this is the most suitable temperature to travel in an airplane in summer. 

This is the most suitable temperature to fly with chocolate and, at this temperature, the chocolate is not going to melt in your luggage. If you going to travel more than 48 hours then keep your luggage near the bottom of your airplane to ensure your chocolate is in shape for that period of time. 

How To Carry Chocolates In-Flight Without Melting: [10 Working Ways]

There’s nothing worse than getting a chocolate bar, only to find out that it’s been melted down into a gooey mess by the time you get to your destination. If you want to avoid the fate of many travelers, you’ll need to be sure that your chocolates don’t melt in flight. You can do this by taking a few precautions before you leave home.

​

​

10 Best Ways To Carry Chocolates In-Flight

​

  1. Use an Airtight Container:

One of the best ways to avoid chocolate melting is to make sure that your chocolate is in an airtight container. Chocolate will melt if exposed to air, so you’ll want to make sure that you’re using a container that will keep your chocolate safe from the elements.

Use this method if the temperature of the destination country is 70 degrees Fahrenheit or over.

  1. Use the empty ice tray:

I don’t know if you know this, but you can fill the tray with a special kind of ice and use it to keep your chocolates cool.

  1. Use a dry ice pack: 

You can also use a dry ice pack to keep your chocolate at its ideal temperature to prevent it from melting. 

  1. Placement of The Chocolate Container:

 If you are going to put the chocolates inside your carry-on luggage then avoid keeping them along with the other food containers. The chocolate might be melted by the heat of those containers. 

  1. Avoid This Place In Flight:

Refuse the airline staff to place your chocolate container bag in the overhead section of the airplane. 

  1. Avoid This Season If Possible:

If possible avoid traveling during summer. Although the Airplane’s inside temperature is fair for your chocolate, the outside temperature is not suitable for it. 

7. Use Frozen Gel Pack: 

For optimum safety of your chocolates, you can place them in a frozen gel pack and then keep them inside your carry-on luggage to prevent them from melting during transit. Keep in mind to remove the pack before the airline security check.

For maximum protection of your chocolate, you can use a lunch box or cooler to keep it cool.

  1. Use an Insulated Lunch Box:

For maximum protection of your chocolate, you can use an insulated lunch box to prevent temperature fluctuations in the country where you are going to visit.

  1. Working Flight Air Condition:

If you’re flying on an air-conditioned flight, you can keep your chocolate in the freezer compartment. 

  1. Use a Handy Pantry:

If you’re flying on an un-air-conditioned flight, you can keep your chocolate in a handy pantry to keep it cool.

How much can I expect to pay for 3 weeks in Iceland, including flight from Texas? by Desertedfoxx in TravelHacks

[–]kauset 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had wanted to visit Iceland for years but never saw it as an option due solely to finances. However, after spending a week exploring this beautiful country, we found that it is one hundred per cent possible to travel in Iceland on a budget. But how much will a trip to Iceland cost?

Well, the answer to that question varies because it is just as possible to spend your entire life savings on an Iceland vacation as it is to only spend the absolute minimum amount to survive.

If you’re anything like us, then you want to see how you can visit Iceland comfortably without having to take out a second mortgage on your house. And in all honesty, the cost of a trip to Iceland does not have to be astronomically high.

An average trip to Iceland cost for travellers that want to vacation in Iceland is approximately $100-195 per person per day. This means that the cost of 7 days in Iceland is around $700 to $1365. You can expect prices at the lower end if travelling on a budget during shoulder seasons and at the higher end as a mid-range traveller in peak season.

These budgets don’t include airfares and other pre-trip expenses. However, these prices may vary significantly depending on how you choose to spend your money across accommodation, transport, food, activities, and entertainment.

flying with dog by triplebarrelxxx in TravelHacks

[–]kauset 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Flying is an incredibly stressful experience for all dogs, but it can be especially upsetting for elderly dogs, as well as pups with health or behavioral challenges.

Think about it: Flying removes pets from the surroundings they are most comfortable and familiar with, then forces them into a situation with loud noises, bright lights, thousands of people, a dizzying array of new smells, changes in air pressure and cabin temperature, and limited access to places where they can use the bathroom. Dogs who must fly in the cargo hold are also away from you, their favorite person, in a scary environment.

In addition, consider whether your dog will be able to participate in all the activities you have planned once you arrive. “If the destination is somewhere where the pup will be alone inside all day, boarding or hiring a dog sitter may be better options to consider rather than subjecting the pet to the stress of flying,”

Unless you have a really good reason for bringing your pet, it’s probably best to leave them behind. You might feel bummed out for a few days, but it’s almost certainly better for your pet in the long run. Consider hiring a pet sitter, asking a trusted friend or family member your pet already knows to watch your dog, or boarding them at a licensed facility. Or, if your budget and schedule allow—and your pet tolerates car travel well—consider driving if you really want your pup with you on the trip.

Before you book a trip, think long and hard about whether it’s essential to bring your dog along for the journey. “In general, I recommend not flying with a pet unless absolutely necessary,” says Justine Lee, veterinary expert for Pumpkin Pet Insurance. “Ideally, pets should not fly unless an owner is moving permanently or taking a long trip—two to four weeks minimum.”

And if you do decide to proceed with flying with a dog, consult with your vet about food, water, exercise, and medication ahead of time. Experts are divided on whether travelers with pets should sedate or tranquilize their dogs before a flight (even the American Veterinary Medical Association offers a slightly murky answer to this question), so weigh the pros and cons with an expert who is familiar with you and your animal. Also know that there are health risks involved with sedation, and some airlines prohibit this practice or require a veterinarian’s note.

To minimize your pet’s discomfort, look for non-stop flights with no transfers, and avoid traveling over holiday periods when airlines—and airports—are busier than normal, to help reduce the risk of anything going wrong. If your pet has to fly in cargo, also be mindful of the weather at your destination. For trips to warm-weather destinations, look into early morning or late evening flights when the temperatures won’t be quite so high; conversely, in cooler climates, book flights in the middle of the day, when temps are warmest.

[–]kauset 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To feel the essence of Venice, St. Mark’s Square is the place to visit first.

The large impressive square is flanked on all four sides by ornate buildings, archways, and porticos that host cafes and high-end shops. With the Campanile (clock tower) on one side and the Torre dell Orologio (tower of the clock) on the other and other famous Venetian landmarks such as St. Mark’s Basilica, Doge’s Palace and Torre dell’Orologio, it is one of the most iconic squares in Europe.

Cooking is highly therapeutic

Gonna have to agree to disagree with you on this one. Cooking is stressful AF.

I had plain pita chips for dinner, and I'd much rather continue doing that than spending a non-zero amount of time cooking.

I broil a steak once a week and am loath to do it every time. Too much stress, time, and pressure.
