]]>Are you looking for shoes for your next travel? Are you going South and looking for some light sandals? I spent three weeks in Sri Lanka and South India and was wearing only clogs.
I took off my other shoes and socks at the first moment I landed in India, put them to the bottom of my backpack and didn’t need anything else except my lovely clogs.
This is probably the most attractive feature of the clogs (mainly known as Crocs, because it adds to the comfort and makes you feel like you’re walking on air. By far the most comfortable things I’ve ever worn. These shoes are very comfortable and well suited for the hot, sticky, sandy climate. The air flows well through the vents and offers a unique feel of cool comfort.
You can get a little bit dirty because the holes allow all sorts of debris into the sandal while you’re walking, such as sand and rain water, but who cares about it? Somebody who afraid to get dirty shouldn’t go to such places like India or other South East Asia countries in the first place.
I honestly recommend to try one. You don’t need to buy clogs made by Crocs as it can be pricey. Depending on size it can cost about $US15-30. I bought mine on the trip to Nepal in Kathmandu. It was noname, made locally and cost only $US 2 or 3 and they lasted for more then two years. I took my clogs to the hiking trip and every night it was like heaven for the feet after I was taking off my hiking shoes and putting on the clogs at guest house.

]]>Have you a travel sheet in you bag or backpack? You should have one. Travel sheet is an extremely lightweight and roomy sleep sack or sleeping bag liner. It adds warmth and keep your sleeping bag clean. Thought it is called sleeping bag liner travelers can use it in hostel or hotel beds were their have doubts about hygiene of these places. It also makes a great airport/travel cover blanket. It easy to clean as it is machine washable and colorfast.
Of course these sheet are in a lot of different sizes and fabric. It can be mummy shape or rectangle, with zipper or without it, made from cotton or micro fiber.
The prices start at 15US$ and goes up to 50-60US$. I am using cheapest cotton travel sheet(like this one) and am very happy with it as it doesn’t take much space in my luggage. I am packing it right now for my trip to India.
