Do you plan on traveling around the world this year? If so, I’m sure you’ll want to stay healthy at all times. It’s not a pleasant experience when you’re sick in foreign countries. Travel insurance won’t be able to help you out.
By the time you need it something will already be wrong. Instead, you should rely on gadgets to keep you safe. Especially those small enough to squeeze into your backpack. Let’s discuss a few good ones you’ll want to take with you.
1. Wear The Right Watch On Your Wrist
These days, a good watch doesn’t just tell you the time. They can all do something a little special. Have you looked at the affordable watches for nurses they’re investing? You’ll love the features built into them.
Some come with a special secondhand designed to keep track of your vitals. You can turn to your watch if you think something is wrong. I’m sure you know it’s better to seek help before disaster strikes.
2. Start Using Noise Cancelling Earphones
What will you do if you have to sit beside a screaming child on a bus? By the time you reach your destination your head will be sore. In fact, any time you have to endure loud noises it will affect you.
If you wear noise canceling earphones you’ll be able to keep the external sounds out. Listening to music is also more enjoyable when you can actually hear it. It’s a crucial piece of kit when you’re traveling.
3. Always Keep A Backup Battery With You
Walk down the street and you’ll see everyone staring at their phones. It’s the same when you go traveling, which is kind of sad. If you’re out all day there is a good chance your phone battery will die.
What will you do if you need to call the emergency services? It’s a situation you never want to find yourself in. Carry a small backup battery around with you and you’ll always be able to call an ambulance.
4. Reading Your Books On A Kindle
You can’t carry hundreds of physical books with you. If you enjoy reading you’ll be forced to read digital books while you’re away. Don’t try to read them on your smartphone or tablet if you value your eyesight.
If you stare at a bright screen all day you’ll end up in tremendous pain. Your eyes will sting so much you won’t be able to see right. It’s worth investing in a Kindle Paperwhite because it’s similar to reading a paper book.
5. A Filtered Water Bottle Is A Must
If you don’t drink enough water you’ll end up in big trouble. Drink unfiltered water in certain countries and it’s nearly as bad. You’ll be curled up in bed wishing you were still dying of thirst.
When you’re on your adventures you want to feel safe when drinking water 24 hours per day. The only way that will happen is if you carry an effectively filtered water bottle around with you.
You’ll Be Able To Come Up With More
Think carefully and you’ll be able to come up with even more gadgets you should take. Your health should be your number one priority. Hopefully, these suggestions have sparked your imagination.
