Stay safe! It´s priority number one. It could be a problem to go on vacation got the coronavirus and stay there two weeks longer. A lot of people can´t afford to be in this position. It´s kind of expensive to stay in a hotel room for a longer period of time and when you are sick you want to be in your own place where you feel safe.

So how to travel safely during pandemic 2022? I can tell you because I traveled around Europe for the last two years and I didn´t get anything. First things first your sanitizer has to be in every pocket. You should sanitize your hands after every public place such as busses, shops, restaurants because you never know who touch doors before you.

The next extremely important is to wear a mask. If you are traveling by plane or by public transport is always better to wear an FFP3 mask. It can protect you more than just a regular mask. And there is also one sentence in my mind, people which are traveling by plane should be vaccinated or tested so there I think is a very low chance to get the virus at the airport.

In Spain, I had to wear a mask even in summer, outside.

And what everyone is telling you, wash your hands often. Yes. I have to. Almost every public bathroom place signs how to wash your hands correctly so I am not going to talk about that.

Spare masks are mandatory to have when you are traveling for more days. Also, one pair of gloves could be handy to have. Don´t forget to take also your own pen or pencil just in case you would have to sign something.

The last words are to not stay a long time in public places which are indoors. If you have to use your mask. Your sanitizer has to be in your pocket. Don´t forget to take some medications with you. Maybe the local pharmacy will have something but you cannot rely on that. In your hotel room always ventilate fresh air inside.

I wish you a pleasant trip.
