Hello Andrew. Thanks for subscribing! I'm glad you found these tips useful. Please check out the others in the 'Solo Travel Tips' series and feel free to post questions.
@@CORRTravelI will. What’s your advice for those of us who take prescription meds? I’m on the generics for tegretol and geodon for bipolar and the generic for zocor for high cholesterol. I’m painfully aware that my meds are not legal everywhere in the world 😢.
@@abkeener81 That's a good question. I always say go to the US State Department website to read as much as possible on travel advise for a location. Also look at sites for tips like TSA: www.tsa.gov/travel/travel-tips/can-you-pack-your-meds-pill-case-and-more-questions-answered The CDC: wwwnc.cdc.gov/travel/page/travel-abroad-with-medicine# And other sites for international travel like: www.internationalinsurance.com/news/bringing-medication-overseas/ When you do know what you can take, or not, depending on your location, I would think to have it clearly labeled (in the original Rx bottle if possible), a copy of the doctor's written prescription, and always bring enough with you on your carry on (in case your check on luggage gets lost) and more than enough to cover your trip with extras in case of emergency or delays. I hope this helps in getting you started!
@@CORRTravel I have. Not much help. I've even tried contacting the countries I'd be visiting. That's hit or miss. The ones that don't help me claim it's because they are not medical professionals. When I explain to them I don't need medical advice ... I get crickets. What annoys me is that bipolar and ADD both (individually) are already stigmatized enough. I don't need this just to travel 🤬😤.
Thank you for sharing! I am over 70 and travel is a huge motivator for me. I agree with your tips especially doing personal research of the place you’re travelling to - I like to read books based in the destination (fiction or non fiction), it really helps prepping and building the excitement.
You are so welcome! Please stick around because there will be more coming. 😁 Enjoy your travels! If you care to share, let us know where you're off to on your next solo trip!
