My family enjoys traveling and we occasionally do it somewhat on the spur of the moment. Last year I created a 'travel box' to make packing my things easier. I have small containers into which I can put just enough moisturizer, makeup foundation, etc. for however long the trip is. The containers are labeled, so I know just what goes in them (when I come home, I finish using any leftover, then wash and dry the containers and return them to the travel box).

I have an extra hairbrush, toothbrush, toothpaste, dental floss, a Daisy razor, and a shower cap. I also have an extra universal charger and power strip so I can charge many devices at once. I keep a copy of a general packing list in my travel box, as well, to jog my memory of what to pack in addition to the contents of the box.

A friend of mine who travels overseas frequently also has a travel box, but with many extra things in it. She has an extra hair dryer and curling iron (both dual voltage), international adaptor plugs, and extra plugs and cables for her electronic devices. A spare washcloth in a plastic bag, because often foreign hotels do not provide them. There is a photocopy of her passport, and a list of TO DOs for before she leaves. (Notify credit card companies and bank, notify neighbors, make pet care arrangements, stop mail and newspapers, etc.)

A medium-sized or smaller plastic box or tote easily holds the things you need. If space is an issue, consider a storage box that can slide under the bed and out of the way.

The travel box makes packing so much easier. No searching for small containers for moisturizers and makeup. No forgotten toothbrushes. All of these things can be packed ahead of time and checked off the list. Clothes can be packed closer to your departure date when you have more of an idea of what to expect from the weather, but your toiletries will be ready.

Happy traveling!

No matter what your dog's problem behavior is, be it jumping, peeing inappropriately, aggression, pulling on the leash...or whatever, there is ONE SOLUTION that can help STOP this problem now.

The sad fact is, most dog trainers miss this solution entirely. They give you cookie cutting training programs. They use outdated and `mean' dominance techniques. Or worse yet, they have no qualifications and are complete phonies. So what's the answer to stopping your dog's behavior problems? In 5 simple words...

Discovering your dog's hidden intelligence.

Let me explain. More intelligent dogs are better behaved. A more intelligent dog takes commands easier and understands what you need from them. The good news is, no matter how clever you think your dog is, you can unlock their hidden intelligence quickly and easily.

Don't waste a second longer coping with problem behaviors you don't need to be dealing with. Visit this link to learn more about Brain Training for Dogs:
