How To Stay Unhealthy When Traveling
 
Your travel time is precious. Since we do not get to travel all the time, we tend to cherish each and every minute that we are in a foreign land. The sad thing is, there are some unfortunate things that might happen along the way which can ruin your trip. One of these is getting sick.

Avoid doing these things and you will surely feel like a champion on your next trip:
  • Put your hands in the airplane’s seatback pockets.
According to statistics, the seatback pockets of the plane seat is the dirties place in the plane. Keep in mind that planes are less frequently than you think and the cleaning process done is just superficial. There is nothing wrong in getting the emergency information from the pocket but try to avoid rummaging through the pockets.
  • Change your diet.
When you are at a foreign land, it would be exciting to do things the way the locals do their things. However, there will be some consequences when you change your diet radically. If you have decided to go on a diet before the trip and you eat mostly fruits and vegetables only, then do not eat pure meat when you travel. Just shift your eating habit gradually if you wish to avoid the consequences that come with it.
  • Try to quit on caffeine.
If you love drinking coffee, it is not reasonable for you to quite coffee just because you are traveling. Keep in mind that it is quite difficult to let go of bad habits. When it comes to caffeine, it is impossible for you to withdraw from it without experiencing withdrawal symptoms. The symptoms may last for a few days and even up to a few weeks.

That is why they tend to jam pack their schedule with lots of sightseeing activities. For your information, there is no better way to get sick while traveling than ditching rest.  Keep in mind that sleep is your best weapon against illnesses so you must prioritize sleep at all times. Do not abuse your body if you wish to make the most out of your trip.
