Expect that your body might be affected by travelling – the truth.
This is something that I was not aware of before leaving,
and which would have saved me a lot of worrying, had I known. Your body
(particularly girls) might be affected by travelling. Changes in climate,
minimal sleep, stress, excess exercise, new foods, iffy water and changes in
diet might cause your body to take a real knock. Not to mention your body just
being run down from constantly being on the go. This is particularly the case
when travelling for a longer period. You
might be lucky, and only feel the effects after your trip, or you might feel
them along the way. This is normal!
Try to stay relaxed, eat at regular intervals and try to get
enough sleep. You should also check if the water is safe to drink, or buy
bottled water if you so desire. I found the water fine wherever I went, but I potentially
just have a strong stomach, having grown up where I have.
It is important to remember that whilst this is normal, if you
are really feeling unwell and it is affecting your experience, and making it unpleasant
and less enjoyable, you can visit a pharmacy wherever you are and they will be
able to help you.
** Girls, your bodies will be under stress, even if you do
not think you are stressing, so do not panic if “that time of the month” is a
little off. Try not to stress about it as this will just make it worse.
