Vacation checklist: 6 things to think about before vacation

class=”sc-29f61514-0 jbwksb”>

Are you going on vacation soon? Blick has put together a checklist whose points must be completed before takeoff. If everything stays in place, your vacation is guaranteed to be stress-free. At least when it comes to all matters in the house.

During your holiday, everything is not as it is. Make sure there is someone to look after pets that are left at home. The same goes for plants and postage that need to be watered regularly, unless you cancel your subscription during the holidays. Meanwhile, emptying the mailboxes and watering the plants is a great holiday chore for the neighborhood kids. For a little pocket money, it is imperative that you find a reliable young plant caretaker.

If you are going abroad, you should definitely check the national currency of the place where you will vacation before you travel. However, in most cases, it’s worth changing the money on arrival, as the exchange rates are better abroad.

Also, find out if your destination accepts card payments. If so, you should make sure that your debit cards are working and that the withdrawal limit has not yet been reached. Depending on the type and location of your vacation, it’s also worth taking enough cash with you.

Unfortunately, you also have to think about paperwork during the holidays. A lot of things can be searched quickly with a cell phone these days. However, just to be sure, it’s worth taking paper copies of important documents with you. This includes booking numbers and details, hiking maps or coupons you need on vacation. If you are traveling abroad: Make sure to check beforehand if your passport or ID is still valid!

If you do not want to miss the benefits of the Internet on vacation, you should inquire in advance about the network conditions and roaming offers. Does your hotel have a WiFi connection you can use? Can you afford the roaming package or is it worth getting a prepaid SIM for the holidays?

If you’re unlucky with an Internet connection: don’t forget to take enough analog entertainment options with you.

Good preparation is needed at work so that you don’t get distracted by employees who are confused during the holidays. Write down all your responsibilities and decide who will take over in your absence. Your attorney should be told what to do next in which situation. Also, be sure to reschedule appointments that require you to attend in person.

Finally, create an out of office notification via email. This should let you know how long you will be away, the message you sent will not be delivered, and who your contacts can contact in the meantime. During the holidays, you also need to take some precautions so that you can truly escape from the day’s work. Turn off business email notifications and business chats on mobile.

No one wants to come home and discover 300 new pets in the kitchen that were transported during the holidays. To prevent this from happening, anything perishable should be eaten before the feast, packed as rations, or delivered to neighbors.

Compost and bins also need to be emptied and dirty dishes washed. When this is done: Close all the blinds and turn off the heater, stove, electrical appliances and lights! You can also turn on the answering machine and alarm system, if available.
