Effective packing with «  » photographic memory «  »

Have you really thought of everything when packing? If you are unsure of this, the question torments you the whole flight. A tip from the Holidaycheck forum: take pictures with your mobile phone before packing. This saves you the packing list for the next time. Once everything is in place, you need to pack to save space. The solution: rolling instead of folding. So more fits in your luggage. Putting socks in your shoes – that also saves space.

Cosmetics: «  » Travel sizes «  » fill up yourself

Small packs are ideal to save space in the suitcase and to be able to carry cosmetic items in hand luggage. But whoever is shampoo, shower gel Co. buys travel size, pays a comparatively high price. Instead, collect small cans and refill them before your vacation. Contact lens cases, candy boxes and bottles of promotional items for example. Don’t forget to label! Here, too, the forum members have advice: «  » Only the most important items are taken, the rest – if necessary – bought on site. «  »

Finding your way on site

If you don’t have mobile internet abroad, you don’t have to do without navigation via Google Maps. Call up the destination while you are still at home or at the WLAN airport, zoom in so that everything important is visible and then enter «  » OK maps «  » in the search field. This will save the destination for later use. It’s even easier with a screenshot of the map. Alternatively, search for navigations in the respective app store that are based on the Open Street Map project and that can also be used without an internet connection. There are mostly free versions, for example at OSMand or Skobbler for Android and iPhone.

Memory training against compulsion to control

In the taxi on the way to the airport the panic question often comes up: Have I locked the apartment door? If you ask yourself this question frequently, the next time you lock the door before a trip, jump in the air, say to yourself that you have locked the door or do a squat. You remember that in the taxi and the vacation begins with a big grin on your face.

The game for more space on the plane

Make three out of two: travelers who are traveling in a double pack can, with a little luck, get a bonus seat on the plane and thus sit much more comfortably. This is how it works: Select the window and aisle seat in a row, then the seat in the middle often remains vacant. And if someone should have made a reservation, there is usually the option to swap.

The self-made amplifier

After arriving at the hotel, first listen to your favorite holiday song. But without boxes? For better sound in the hotel room, simply place the cell phone in a cup and use it as an amplifier. But please drink the tea first!

Bath instead of iron

When unpacking the suitcase, one or the other item of clothing will have creases. But that doesn’t mean you have to go straight to the reception to ask for an iron. Claudia Haller, who travels a lot herself, says: «  » Hang the wrinkled things on hangers in the bathroom. They’ll be smooth again after the next hot shower. «  » If you just want to « iron » a kink in a shirt collar quickly, you can also use a straightening iron.

Band-aid in the wallet

Having a complete first-aid kit in your suitcase is good. It is even better if the most important items are always to hand in hand luggage or in the beach bag. «  » Two or three plasters in your wallet are more valuable than the money in them, for example if you ran a blister while hiking in a remote region, «  » says Claudia Haller. Incidentally, the community has chosen agents for gastrointestinal diseases as the most important component of a first-aid kit (42 percent). In second and third place: headache pills (26 percent) and sunburn remedies (18 percent).

Fresh-keeping bags as protection for your cell phone

Sun, sand and salt water – that holiday feeling for us, but not so nice for our cell phone. «  » Simply put the phone in a zip-lock freezer bag on the beach, « advises Claudia Haller. «  » It stays protected and can still be operated. «  »

Cool drinks in rapid succession

Who bottles of beer Co. want to get cold very quickly, it is best to pack them in a bowl with water, ice and salt. The salt allows the ice cubes to melt faster, removing the heat from the drinks in turbo speed.

When thinking of San Francisco’s famous bridges, everyone thinks of the Golden Gate Bridge. But no less impressive is the Bay Bridge, which connects the cities of San Francisco and Oakland. And since this week the bridge has been in the spotlight as a spectacular work of light art. The New York installation artist Leo Villareal attached 25,000 LED lights to the steel cables. The computer-controlled light show «  » The Bay Lights «  » will now be switched on every evening from dusk until 2 a.m. for two years. See the light installation in our photo show.

Energy costs only $ 15 per night

The sparkling sea of ​​lights extends over a distance of three kilometers on the western span of the bridge. The cost of the approximately eight million dollar project was largely covered by donations. The use of solar energy would reduce electricity consumption to around $ 15 per night, reported the «  » San Francisco Chronicle «  ». The city promises to generate millions in revenue from onlookers who watch the spectacle from the boardwalk or from boats in the Bay of San Francisco. The Bay Bridge, opened in 1936, is used by around 280,000 vehicles every day. During the severe Loma Prieta earthquake in October 1989, part of the two-story bridge collapsed. The eastern span is currently being rebuilt to protect against earthquakes. The route section is to be inaugurated this year.

Bronx is under renovation

In summer, an entertainment district will open on the 0.89 hectare area. In early 2014, the city plans to start building what is believed to be the world’s largest Ferris wheel on Staten Island’s north coast. The 190.5 meter high wheel will have 36 cabins for 40 passengers each. In 2012, 52 million foreign guests came to the Big Apple, a good million more than in 2011.

At the moment it doesn’t look like it is still necessary. Evelyn was disappointed with Domenico’s abuse of trust. The «  » Italiano «  », as she always called him, has not yet commented on the whole drama. Four days ago he uploaded a photo on Instagram and wrote: «  » The less you react to negative people, the calmer and more peaceful your life will be. «  » What exactly he means by that remains open. 

Evelyn and Domenico fell in love on the TV show « Bachelor in Paradise ». On an island in Thailand, former participants from the shows «  » Bachelor «  » or «  » Bachelorette «  » got to know each other, in order to end the trip as lovers.
