There's nothing better than travelling the world, looking for new exotic places and white beaches.
As a successful entrepreneur I spend much of my time visiting new destinations, for me life is a world venture.
It's a good idea to plan ahead and make sure that you follow simple rules as a traveller.
Here are my top five tips for making any journey more pleasurable.
Mini wash-bag Keeping fresh on a journey is essential and I have found that I like to be able to brush my teeth, re-apply deodorant etc.
Many chemists and stores now sell a range of mini versions, which are ideal even for air travel where they will only allow 100ml per bottle.
Foldable toothbrushes and mini toothpaste, individual wet wipes and tiny aerosols are available and make it easy to include in your hand luggage, either on a plane, or a coach or railway journey.
Essential Documents Photocopy all your essential documents such as passport, driving licence, and travel tickets.
This way if they get stolen you will be able to prove ownership.
It is now very difficult to obtain another passport if you don't have the registration number.
I would suggest having a set at home and also with you in a different location to where you keep the passport.
This can save a lot of heartache in the event of a theft.
The Big Sticker! Find a Large sticker, the easiest is one from a children's shop.
Something that will stand out on a Luggage carousel.
It doesn't matter if you have just bought a shiny new Pink suitcase, it seems as everyone has had the same idea! Plonk a whopping great sticker of Barney the purple dinosaur on your case and you'll spot it the other side of the airport! An alternative is to tie a colourful scarf from the handle.
Postcard solution Everyone likes a Postcard from one of your exotic destinations, but isn't it a faff filling out their addresses? The solution is to fill out their addresses on large stickers before you leave.
I print the on a PC using Comic Sans which looks partly handwritten.
This tip could save you enough time for an extra dip in the clear blue sea! Get your head down Last but not least, there's nothing worse than being uncomfortable on a long journey.
Arm yourself in advance with a simple squidgy tube cushion.
Avoid the ones that wrap round your neck, they look stupid and just don't work.
I found them cheapest on eBay but you can probably find them at a local discount store or market.
Don't wait till you get to an airport they charge the earth! Wherever you go have a great journey - and - send me a postcard!
