Always pack duct tape. It held together the latch covering my camera battery on my most recent trip to Paris, and thankfully held together the front end of a rental car for a 7-hour drive to Sydney, Australia after I had a little mishap when touring some oh so worth seeing sandstone caves!

The credit card issuer Capital One does not charge any foreign currency conversion fee on overseas transactions. We keep on of their cards for exclusive use on our frequent overses trips. RE: Packing light. Ex Officio sells a line of ultra light underwear for both men and women which is 94% nylon and 6% spandex. Briefs and T-shirts are available in black, gray, and white. They are so light that they can be easily washed while showering and are always dry in the morning. Use the 2 method of one set on and one set drying. Works great and they take up almost no space in a case because they are so light. They may have other more feminine pleasing colors for women, not sure. Two Comments:
