Buy Unique Travel Gifts: Rick Steves Silk Neck Wallet – In Stock On 24, March 2008

During my two weeks in Italy Rick Steves Silk Neck Wallet kept my passport, credit cards and money safe.

I liked the zippered area that is meant specifically for credit cards. The cord is nice and long and actually also allowed me to hang my Neck Wallet over my neck under my shirt and then tuck it into my pants when I did not want it to be obvious under my tighter shirts.

The only disappointment is that when I got back home a few days later I noticed that the cord had to be resewn because it became detached from the pouch. But I would buy this Rick Steves Silk Neck Wallet again.

Get Ready For Holidays: Passports, Travel Documents, Vaccinations, Luggage

Going for holidays is a great way to learn about a new culture. In some instances the travel is to visit family that is located there instead of just for a vacation.

Regardless of the reason why you are traveling to another country during the holidays, you need to make sure you are prepared for the trip.

For most countries you are going to need a passport with a photo ID. This will allow you to remain in the country for a specified amount of time. Generally, this time frame is from 30 days to 90 days.

You can take your passport photo at any post office, but it is going to take several weeks to get it back. There is an expedited option and it is very expensive. If you wait until the holiday time to obtain your passport it is going to take much longer, even for the expedited option. (more…)
