How to avoid Jet lag
Sleep well before flight.
Eat before the flight. It's best not to eat during a flight since it’s served on a schedule you are leaving. Pack high fiber snacks such as dried fruits, nuts, and granola bars. It’s important to drink a lot. Try to avoid alcohol. In pressures air, one glass equal to 3 glasses.
Change your watch upon take off to the time zone you are going to.
Make yourself cozy. Wear loose cloth and swap shoes for socks as you settle in your seat.
Use eye cover musk to help you sleep.
Money exchange
The best way to exchange money is in banks. Opening hours vary, therefor we recommend doing it in morning hours. Try to get the rate on a piece of paper. More efficient way is to check which of the credit cards that you have, offer the lowest rate for card charges and ATM withdraw outside the united states.
Communications
Cell phone companies charge humongous charges for use overseas. If you have an unlocked smart phone, you can find open WiFi networks almost everywhere but airports and use Skype or surf. It's having i pad or Motorola zoom makes it fun.
Here are some suggestions: Set your phone to an airplane mode. It will block sending and receiving e mails.
For i-phone, Turn fetch data off to avoid searching for e mails.
For Droid: Turn off data, turn off background data
Simcards - If you don't mind having a different number, a good way to save is by purchasing a simcard for your phone with a local number. If you prefer buying it in advance you may go to www.Gosim.com or www.telestial.com . You will get prepaid minutes for the country you are traveling to.
In a country like England, for example, it's very simple to purchase locally a phone with prepaid minutes. Try to search in forums, what are people sharing about a specific country.
