Travel Health Guide - How to go through the long-hours flights

There were many times that I had a long-hours filghts which cause me stress, tired and sleepless. Fortunately, there are a number of things you can do to make such trips more comfortable and less stressful – here are some tips:

Dress Comfortably. Wear loose, and preferably, cotton clothes. You will be seated for an extended period of time in a confined space with temperatures fluctuating from hot to cold, so it’s best to be comfortable. Same goes for shoes. It’s common for our feet, hands and face to swell at high altitudes, so ladies, leave the heels behind.

Drink lots of water. Before the flight, and during your time in the air. The air is dry up there and dehydration is common. Try to abstain from alcoholic and diuretic beverages as these further dehydrate you.

Pack the right toiletries. Pack moisturizing lotion for your skin, bring balm for your lips and include eye drops in your carry-on bag. Moisturizing sleep masks are a popular choice for frequent flyers.

Stretch. Immobility combined with dehydration can cause deep vein thrombosis (DVT) – the forming of blood clots in the deep veins of your lower legs – which is associated with long distance flights. That’s why it’s important to adopt some simple exercises and keep your legs moving when airborne. Rotate the ankles, pointing the heel and toe alternatively and lift your knees whilst seated every half hour for a few minutes. Tense your leg muscles too and take a regular walk down the aisle to help circulation.

Take other preventative measures against DVT. Pack compression socks or hosiery that has been designed especially to prevent DVT. Take a low-dose aspirin (100-150 mg) before the flight, during the flight (check the dosage limits) and for 3 days after. Aspirin helps prevent the blood from clotting.

Delay your snooze. Rather than taking a kip immediately after the first meal and movie, try and keep your mind active for a few more hours. Prolonging the time until sleep will ensure that when you finally get some shut eye, the sleep will be heavier and longer.

General Travel Tip - The passion of Sunbathing

I had lived in Australia for almost 6 years between my highschool days... when I firstly arrived in Australia I was pretty exciting about how my life is gonna be from there on.. new environment.. new culture.. different lifestyles.. especially the communication which was very bad of my English skills. However, so far so good, I finally got my certificates and I learns how to lived in different places, different culture and different lifestyle by my own. but I'm still a little concious about the different of Human Habits I might say...

I was very surprised when I went to Bondi Beach and Surfer Paradise for the very first time. Thousands and thousands of people lied down on the sand along the beach, confronted with burning sunlight and very hot temperature in a very sunshine day. People seem to be loved it though, and lied down for hours. It's so strange habit for Asians as if any head-cutting circumstance they will avoid the sunlight. So I tried, lied down on the sand for hours then 2 days after I found that my skin was peeling like a snake!!

So what should be the passion of this habit? because it's just a tortured moment while we got a dried skin waiting to peel off.. it's very hurt though..eieie.. and people loved to do that though.. people from the west e.g. Eupore, America, Australia. Just wondering why? why?? and why??

Asia Cuisine Guide - Foods may tell History

As an Asian guy, I always want to try some western foods, like my favorite meat pied, spaghetti cabonara, lamb steak, Italian pizza...etc. and most of the times when i had tried some of them.. i learn something more than the feeling of the tastes and smells. i can images of how the people will be look like, their lifestyles..their features and so on...apart from that the different way people have their foods and differentiate the character of the nation or we and learn the culture or the some history on that.

The question is that if you had ever tried some of the Asian food and can u imagine how will us be look like??" the lifestyle of ours??

what is your Asian's favorite plates then.. Thais..Japanese.. Chinese.. Indian.. Korean.. Have you ever noticed that why Japanese and Korean plates are pretty similar tastes even these 2 countries are located thousands miles away from each other? Why some of the Asian Foods have a pretty strong in smell or even the taste but some may not? or some of the Asians plated will be served in a very hot temperature style.. some are in a very cold..

You can definitely find out the differences if you try some of these following plates...
1. Cold Noodle(Japanese)
2. Duck Noodle(Chinese)
3. Tom Yum Noodle(Thai)
4. Ramen(Korean)

These are all the noodle menu but what is the differences you found?? does it reply to some story tellings about Asia??..

Travel Indonesia Guide - The experiences of sand and sea at Bali

As the temperature gets chillier in many Northern Hemisphere countries, tropical destinations such as Bali seem all the more attractive. With their bona fide friendly nature and ingenious for hospitality, the Balinese make the island an even more popular destination to beachcomers in seach of sun, sand and surf.

Bali also has a variety of beach options to suit every kind of traveler. There are the popular surf spots of Kuta and Legian, the luxurious and private shores of Nusa Dua, the chic and romantic Seminyak beach and the beautifully serene locale of Sanur.

With its clean break waves and lengthy golden shore, Kuta has been a favourite among surfers since the 1970s. These days, the area is something of a tourist Mecca, offering a prime nightlife and entertainment scene in addition to its vast array of beach activities and

hotels. The area is also brimming with shopping options, with everything from branded luxury clothes and accessories to bohemian beach wear.

The Kuta town and surrounding suburbs are suitable for all types of tourists including seasoned solo surfers, young groups of friends, couples and families. It is an epicenter for surf, sun and fun - but not necessarily peace and quiet. Not far from Kuta town is the trendy Seminyak beach. Quickly earning a reputation for being a sleek, boutique hotspot, Seminyak has a first-rate swimming beach and a number of designer accommodation and fine dining options. I recommend to include the Resor Seminyak Resort & Spa and the opulent Oberoi Hotel as one of the prior choices.

The luxurious beach cove of Nusa Dua is a favorite among those traveling to Bali, because of its calm, tranquil atmosphere and inviting turquoise waters. It is a perfect place for romancing honeymooners but also for those with a passion for underwater life - there are good diving and snorkeling spots to be found in this area.

Closer to Denpasar, the quiet beach of Sanur is a pleasant alternative to the highly developed and more popular beach spots of Bali. Everything at Sanur moves at a leisurely pace, and guests can experience a more traditional Bali, with local fishermen bringing in their catch of the day and the soothing sounds of the nearby temple, offering a unique atmosphere.
