TOP 10 TRAVELLING RULES

Each time I go home to Norway I have my rules to follow when packing and travelling. Packing is tricky because normally it's a matter of limited space and there are unpredictable situations to consider. Here are my top ten rules when travelling:

1. Most airlines have rules regarding baggage. Do your research IN TIME. I mostly travel with Norwegian, which means strictly 20 kg per suitcase and 10 kg in handbag. LEARN AUTHENTIC FAWNING AND SMILES TO GET THROUGH WITH OVERWEIGHT! 20 kg does not make sense when you have a passion for fashion. PRACTICE WITH A MIRROR!

2. What to include? EVERYTHING UNEXPECTED - WHAT WILL SHOCK A NORWEGIAN?

3. When you travel you need flats and trousers. After all, you are crossing lands and seas - YOU EXERCISE! No need for jewellery, nor dressing down for the people expecting you. Go SAFE.

4. Packing in time is IMPORTANT. If you can't find space for your hat, you need to Fedex it!

5. Shoes, as security on planes, are FIRST PRIORITY. If there's no space left in your suitcase, bring them in your handbag. Shoes are heavy, but they carry you and you need them MORE than clothes!

6. Arrive early at the airport. "Fashionably late" is non existing - customize to your airline. Nothing is more demode than causing delays. It's unkind!

7. Buy any Vogue to read. NOTHING else will make the time move faster.

8. If you are single, order a window seat. You also need a wing and shoulder to rely on during turbulence!

9. Loud music is DEMODE, DEMODE, DEMODE.

10. Many people consider themselves as a cosmopolitan when they travel a lot and tell at social networks as Facebook and Twitter. EMBARRASSING! HUMILIATING! Travelling is instructive, but staying at only one place means you are satisfied with less. I envy those people! DO NOT SHOW OFF IN SOCIAL NETWORKS - NO ONE REALLY CARES UNLESS YOU ARE VIP.
