Hello there gorgeous readers!
Since I'm going on a little adventure in the Alps next week and all of the packing stuff is on it's way, I decided to make travel essentials kinda post.
If you are with me from the very beginning, then you already know I am in love with traveling. Visiting new places, meeting new people, learning about customs and cultures of others are my big passions besides beauty world. And big role in enjoing your time play things you carry in your handbag. Girls, let's be honest here, sometimes we put half of the Universe there "just because it's really important" and then dying of pain in shoulders and spine. Am I right? 95,9% yes.
I have already had lots of experience like that and it taught me few good lessons.
When it comes to roadtrips, I used to take with me at least two books, notebook, few pen or pencils, two makeupbags - one filled with actual makeup and another with medicine stuff (just in case), at least three skincare products and tons of other things. Who the hell needs that?
I felt so uncomfortable because I couldn't take out anything from my handbag and, basically, it was a complete mess.
Now only goodies that I need are traveling with me. Nothing more.
Here is my list of essentials for roadtrips:
Blanket
I always leave it in the car anyway, so it won't overweight me. My problem is that I can't sleep without blankets. In general, it makes trip a little bit cozier.
Phone and headphones
The reason is obvious. Who can handle lots of hours without music? Not me. And also phone helps me to keep in touch with my friends.
Tablet
Instead of bringing with me tons of books I download them on my device. Also I download few films to entertain me even more.
Camera
It has it's own bag and won't weight down my handbag as well! Camera is such an essential for me wherever I go and most of the time I carry it around because you don't know when photo opportunity happens!
Synergen Toner and Anti-Pickel Gel
Nobody likes messy and tangled hair. Also I want to look like normal girl when going out of car, definitely not like monster.
Maybelline Babylips
Bottle of water and snacks
Well, simple as that.
What are yours travel essentials?
Till next time, Yana x
P.S I hope I'll manage to post normaly whilst I'm away!
Well, well, well. School?
I think everyone would agree that school is a bit of stress and concern for students. But! No need to give up to the difficulties. Believe in your strength and enjoy your time. You don't have to pressure yourself to do all school things, in fact, it is impossible. Take a slow deep breath...and exhale :)
First of all, you are a human and this is a being who makes mistakes. It's okay. Do not worry too much about exams and lessons. This is not the end of the world, I promise you.
To make it easier, make a rational allocation of time. Notebooks and lists to do will help you. Divide your day so that you had time for test preparation as well as just chill with your favorite magazine.
Rule number two is a good sleep. Do not do as me and don't spend half a night watching YouTube videos. Lol. For better sleep, take a warm bath, drink a tea, read a book or listen to calm music. By the way, you can take a nap through the day time. 'Cause why not?
The best way to escape from stress and relax is your hobby. For example, when I sit down to write a post or make video, I forget about everything in the world!
Make sure you follow a balanced diet. It means that everyday you need certain proportions of proteins, fats and carbohydrates (1:1:4). Also eat lots of fruits and vegetables which contain vitamins that are necessary for normal functioning of the organism. Did you know that headaches can be caused by dehydration? So do not forget about water, tea, juice, etc.
One thing that personally me really helps to survive school is traveling. Visiting different places, meeting new people, exploring world around us makes those changes in my head and soul that are vital for my well-being.
