✈️ This one travel tip will help you not get pickpocketed 💙 1. I practice pulling out my wallet or reaching for euros before my trip, like a Christmas Market trip, for example. 2. But the most helpful tip is to wear a crossbody bag with a wire in the strap. The mesh panels are also laden with mesh wires. And they do not make the alarm go off in airport security. The slash-resistant strap slows down a criminal from stealing your valuables while traveling. 👨🏼‍✈️ I’m a Houston pilot wife sharing tips to help you “travel the globe without a worry in the world” on YTube and IG. traveltips pickpocket woman over 40, travel style, travel essential, anti-theft travel, travel gear, tips for tourists LTKTravel LTKOver40 LTKItBag

✈️ Travel Must-Haves for a Conference (especially if you are a speaker) 💙
1. Pack these travel essentials for speaking at a conference:
tissues
2. Individually wrapped floss sticks since you will most likely be eating before you speak (MEN: for your wallet too)
3. Waterproof stretchy bandages since you may wear high heels you do not wear often and therefore have blisters.

How to tie a scarf for travel outfits ❤️
I want all the leopard patterns in the scarf to show. Then fold in half and drape it around your shoulders so that the fold is on one side and the two ends are on the other side.
Now thread one end through that fold. Travel tip: 100% silk prevents frizzy hair! So in a cold airplane, wear it like a bonnet if you have to.
Open your hand like a baby shark mouth and open that fold into a hole. Twist the hole up.
With the other end, open it up so that one color shows. Thread that end of your scarf through the baby shark mouth hole.
What most people forget with their travel outfits is that at the end is when you can customize your scarf. Make it looser or tighter to your neck or spread it out. Manipulate the fabric so it works for you!
I have a longer video with 11 more ways to tie a scarf if you tap the play button.

✈️ Fall ballet flats for a travel outfit 💙 Comment SHOP for link.
Ditch the sandals and wear the slip on dressy flats. When your foot swells from midlife, the strap stretches. I am an 8.5 wearing my true size. But I maybe could have worn the 8. Since no socks, I wear that sole insert with lots of holes. Travel tip: spray Scotchgard on lighter suede fabric for any other passenger's stains or rain.

✈️ Airport Security Updates if Flying to a Foreign Country 💙
In Amsterdam, Netherlands, my carry-on bags had to be second hand screened. The airport security officer wanted me to open my backpack. Travel tip: I did tell the officers I had prescription shampoo, and they told me to keep it inside my bag. I was THE EIGTH passenger in line! Travel tip: arrive at international airports 3 hours before departure! Then they allowed me through.

✈️ 2 Items I Pack for Europe Trip 💙
Because of dry air in the airplane I pack lip medical gloss and eye drops by Systane in individual vials for traveling to Europe.
Electronic cord adapters for Europe when your plug is USB-C but the boutique older hotel only has USB ports for charging.
For a long flight my travel tip is to move your eye drops and lip gloss to your pouch just for the trip to Europe. Then pack them where you want them during the vacation.

My flight canceled in a foreign country. Travel tips for canceled flight:
Book a hotel near the airport if you are nervous about staying the night by yourself.
Pack a few days extra medicine.
Save some liquids you may need.
Use the airline’s app while in line to rebook you. Many times that is faster than standing in the stranded passengers line in the airport.
