Holiday packing tips

Today is the day that we all truly put Christmas behind us and start thinking about our summer holidays. It may only be the first day back at school, but today is apparently the busiest day of the year for flight bookings, peaking at about 1pm as we all rush online in our lunch breaks, desperate to get away already after only a few hours back at work.

    Hm, I guess winter skiing in Alps (we usually go to Austria but Switzerland and Czech Republic happend, too and it was amazing) and summer chilling in South Europe or visiting family in the Eastern part :) After so many vacation I already have such a chart in my mind – and it terrifies me to go anywhere to be honest. But as the years go by it gets easier, thank God! :) Hope you were able to book your trip and it will be fantastic!
