    Here are some items I use that weren’t on your list. A small tablet for entertainment 8~10 inches. I bring my own wired earbuds with decent noise isolation they work with the tablet an in flight entertainment system. Several moderately priced earbuds have a seal that work as well or better than common earplugs and doesn’t drain my batteries. Pocket tissues (dry air irritates my sinuses). Hard candy or throat drops (the dry air irritates my throat), gum. Water bottle. “hygiene” wipes because airplane TP sucks. Hand sanitizer. A buff (can be used as an eye mask, headband, neck warmer, beanie, etc..), mini flashlight, spare flashlight battery, lighter. Compression socks. Slip-on shoes or athletic shoes with elastic laces making them slip-on. prescription glasses & case. Today’s dose of vitamins & meds, I take them with food so it helps to have them handy when get bite at the airport or when I eat my protein snack. Tweezers and nail clippers. When I don’t bring them I wind up needing them. A couple doses of Benedryl and some ant-acid, just in case.

      @averagegirldoescoolthings 28 дней назад

      1063 at most recent census, up from 242 in 1981, thanks to people coming to visit the gorillas! Gorilla tourism is actually a success story - because people pay to come see gorillas, the governments have taken steps to protect them from poachers and to expand their habitats after so much has been lost to farming. Permits are strictly controlled - less than 100 people are allowed to visit gorillas a day in Rwanda, at a cost of $1500 per person. The money goes into conservation and the local communities. Highly recommend visiting gorillafund.org to learn more!

    Pepto bismuth is known to ‘cure’ stomach issues and I travel with a full complement of tabs. Thankfully, I’ve only had water poisoning in two places: Bavaria and Ohio, USA. Neither time was I aware of the pink tabs. Won’t catch me away from home without them.

    Hand lotion. No rinse face wipe. Extra earplugs for the nice man who put your luggage in the overhead bin twice, because you forgot something. Throw away pair of socks for the lady wearing pantyhose who can smell her own feet, after she removed her shoes, but thinks you can’t. Silk scarf that covers eyes and mouth (possibly open while sleeping) and hides any inadvertent drooling. 😊

    • @averagegirldoescoolthings
      @averagegirldoescoolthings Месяц назад

      Have you asked friends or family to leave you reviews? You can send them a link to ask. I also would recommend setting your price at a mid point, not the lowest. People are willing to pay for a good sitter, and by pricing yourself at the bottom you may be signaling that you don’t provide the same quality as others. Also, make sure you’re highlighting why your care is special. For me, I have experience watching anxious dogs and I only take one dog at a time. I get a lot of clients specifically looking for their dog to be the only one being watched. Hope that helps, good luck!
