Traffic jams, accidents, many kilometers still ahead of you on the speedometer. No need to lose your nerve and dampen your vacation anticipation!
Today I’m going to show you how to dress for the trip, and in addition, there are super gadgets that will make the car ride a pleasure!
the anticipation of the vacation can almost never be greater in the everyday stress of work!
But the packing, last minute errands, last minute emails, loading the car and finally the often long car ride to the vacation – often make the mood sink.
Today we have tips for an ideal travel outfit and great gadgets that make every trip more enjoyable.
Your comfortable travel outfit
especially long trips to the vacations are exhausting: they make you tired, the body sluggish, the body unbalanced.
With the right travel outfit, however, almost nothing can go wrong – it’s comfortable, but also ideal for snapshots during the trip not to stand by in total "lummellook":
… for the man
Men go for the chino pants or even the sleek jogging pants. These are comfortable, but still suitable for everyday use.
combined with a t-shirt, which should not come from the fraction "schlafi- shirt", you give your body form and shape. Add a chic sweat jacket, sneakers – and you’re done!
Who drives into cold areas, should have appropriate outdoor clothing in the trunk ready: vest, jacket and a scarf protect against hypothermia. Especially in cold vacation destinations, such as when you are going to the mountains, you should be prepared for the change in climate.
Oh yes, the men: they always have it easy! But it is more tricky..
… for the woman
let’s be honest: we women always want to look pretty. Each in its own way.
I now wear my travel outfit like this and can only recommend it to everyone:
harem pants are now an absolute travel must have for me! The fine fabrics, the flattering on the leg, the leg freedom… the width of the pants gives an incredibly great feeling of comfort without being "underdressed" – after all, you don’t want to arrive at the chic wellness hotel in a "floppy look" either.
Since we women, especially on long trips tend to water retention in the legs, we are happy when no pants pinch and pinch.
I combine it with a figure-hugging long-sleeved shirt, this gives shape and form and reflects the figure, which tends to get lost in the harem pants. long-sleeved because it often gets a bit chilly with air conditioning and sitting all day long.
I always wear a scarf when I travel by car – in summer it can be a light silk scarf, in winter it can be a scarf. These protect against drafts caused by air conditioning and open windows and thus prevent an unnecessary cold on vacation.
Loafers are for me the absolutely most comfortable footwear: you can slip out of them quickly to make yourself comfortable in the car, but they are also sufficient and good for short sightseeing stops on the car trip.
in a large, longer bag (you can easily stow it in the footwell without restricting legroom), i keep all the belongings i can use during the trip, including great gadgets that sweeten the trip a little:
Useful travel gadgets
Actual unnecessary things that do not HAVE to be, but definitely make the trip more pleasant:
Music
music in the ears is often THE secret recipe for balancing our body and psyche.
Whether together via the stereo or for you via MP3 player, smartphone& co:
headphones on and sink into the vibes of your favorite songs.
Also great: listening to audiobooks/ audibles, and if you want to use the trip to study or go to school, you can also listen to wonderful readings& co. Listen without annoying the others.
also great is the MP3 player for children. they can immerse themselves in their world: listen to stories and nursery rhymes. Here pay attention to a limitation of the volume, in order to protect the extremely good child ears.
the sweetest part is when they start singing along uninhibited: mom and dad just melt away.
Travel-kit
Travel kits are THE latest travel trend. Open gummy bear bags in the glove compartment were yesterday – nowadays it can be a bit more quiet:
in acrylic boxes or subdivided snack tins come the favorite sweets .. nibbles of each passenger inside: so you save paper all over the car, the constant asking for nerve food. everyone has their own ration and can decide for themselves what to eat and when.
With my children, when it’s empty, it’s empty. In this way, even the smallest ones learn that it is best to organize important things in order to enjoy them for a long time.

books& ebooks
For all those who have the great gift of being able to read during the journey without suffering from nausea, exciting books or modern bundles: an e-reader are a good choice.
Into exciting stories, fighting heroes of legends, stories about life – everyone can dive into their own world here. So you can reach your goal faster than you think!
Medi-pack
In addition to everything worth entertaining, it is important to have a medi- pack in order to arrive at your travel destination carefree. The most important medications for travel-related illnesses, such as nausea& vomiting, dizziness, dry mucous membranes& co. Stowed in the glove compartment, you always have the possibility to intervene quickly.
Vomex, spit bags, a thermal spray to refresh (and entertain the kids when nothing else works& ) , cough drops to moisten the throat, handkerchiefs, an SOS stick for scrapes, injuries and wounds during the rest stop, as well as plasters& co.
Even on trips within your vacation, you are always well provided for and prepared for all eventualities.
