I will absolutely be posting about my recent trip. I just have to sort my photos. And catch up on work…it’s taking a while.

But I am going to do an update on tips for smooth travel. With most people not worried about COVID any more (although we do seem to be seeing a very mild summer surge, which is timed with a massive heatwave, so I’m sure it’s people hiding in the A/C), I’m not going to talk about that too much.

2. Invest in sun shirts, if you’re going somewhere that is A. hot and/or B. high. Sunscreen is great. But a sun shirt protects you not just from UV, but from wind burn and bug bites too. No, you won’t end up too hot.
