A "to Do" List For A Smooth Vacation

Finally, it's that time of the year again! You are going on holiday

. No more worrying about deadlines, financial reports and you can even forget about your boss and his complaints. All that's on your mind right now are plans on how to relax, get that beautiful tan you've been yearning for all winter and even meet some interesting people. But, before you can go and do all that, there are some things you must take care of.

If you are not planning to take your pet along in your vacation, you must make arrangements for his well-being. It would be great if some friend could take it in for the time you will be away but, if that's not possible at least make sure someone will come feed him every day. It's the least you could do for your best friend. Also, remember to ask one of your neighbors to check the house every once in a while and water your plants.

If you are not taking your pet along, you really should arrange for someone to take care of it while you are away. A relative or a friend might even take your best friend in for a couple of days so you won't be feeling too guilty for leaving it behind. Also, remember to ask a neighbor to come every once in a while to water your plants and check the house. If possible, ask him or her to come at different hours instead of establishing a tight schedule. This way people will see activity inside the house and will know someone's home.

Pay your bills. When leaving home, the only date you know for sure is your departure date. When it comes to your return, you never know what may come up. It is better to take care of your debts in advance. After all, the last thing you want when returning from your holiday is facing penalties, right? Plus, you might find yourself facing the uncomfortable and embarrassing situation of your credit card being rejected while youre shopping or dinning out. This could really ruin your party mood.

If you are going abroad then you really should consider getting both health and travel insurance. If you're traveling within the EU, apply for your European Health Insurance Card. It enables you to access state-provided health-care in all European Economic Area countries and Switzerland at a reduced cost or sometimes free of charge. Also, remember to check if you require vaccinations and, if the answer is yes", ask your doctor to help you with those.

For those traveling abroad it is very important to get health and travel insurance. If you're traveling within the EU, apply for your European Health Insurance Card. It enables you to access state-provided health-care in all European Economic Area countries and Switzerland at a reduced cost or sometimes free of charge. Still, you must keep in mind that, although a health insurance is very important, it is not a substitute for travel insurance. You also need one of those. It will save you a lot of trouble and money in case your flight is canceled, your baggage gets lost or you encounter unexpected problems when getting to your hotel.

And last but not least, make a list of things to check right before you walk out the door. It must include things like turning off the gas, switching off electrical appliances and locking all doors and windows. In all that excitement, you might forget one of these small things and you don't want to spend your entire vacation wondering if you locked the front door.
