Hi and welcome in this video. Today I have five travel hacks for your next journey.
my name is Benjamin Yvonne ski photographer and adventurer ten years
ago I started to teach myself photography today I travel the world
it's a professional photographer and filmmaker learn from my experiences it
takes an tips and join me on my photography adventures
The last couple of years I traveled a lot around the world to take photos and I also learned
some great hacks that you can use for your next trip.
I think everybody's watching right now has some nice Tupperware lunchbox at
home and most of the people think it's only for old women putting some stuff
inside in the refrigerator. But it's not you can use it as a photographer as well
just put fragile stuff inside the box around it some under pan socks t-shirts
whatever that the space is maximum used inside the box. Then close it and then
just put it inside your luggage and it's very stable very solid and nothing can
happen. As well on the beach I use a smaller box for my cell phone, for my
earphones, for small amounts of money and all the stuff that should not get wet so
it's a very solid great solution for sand, for water and everything on the
beach as well and for all the underwater photographers out there I have a nice
big box for my dome port and that is also some Tupperware actually I think
for cakes or something and you can use it as well for transporting a dome port.
It's always important to drink enough water but water is expensive when you
want to fly especially in the duty-free area. So what I can recommend you is just
take an empty bottle through the security check and refill it afterwards
from the tap in the washing room. It's depending on in which country you are
but in Europe or in most of the European countries you can drink the water from
the tap so you can save some bucks just refill the water drink as much as you
want and yeah just take it with you on the plane. But through the security check
with the empty bottle.
When you want to charge your batteries in different countries that usually
means that you need a travel adapter because in different countries they have
different wall plugs. In Germany for example or in whole Europe I think we have like
these plugs here in other countries they have like these plugs or in the u.s.
they have the smaller ones and for every country you usually need one adapter but
this is a great invention it's like a 5 or 4 in 1 adapter so that is a great
thing and as well what I would recommend you is to use something like this a
multi plaque or plaque board I think it's called. So you just plug that thing
inside the adapter the adapter in the wall and then you can charge 6 in that
case devices at once. Great it's the future.
When you travel a lot in your car
you definitely need this little car charger you just put it in the cigarette
lighter and then you can just put every USB charger cable inside so you can
charge your cell phone, you can charge your camera, if it supports that charging
USB thing, you can charge for example the microphones we are just filming with
right now and all the little nasty stuff you can charge with USB. But while you're
driving inside your car great invention.
Most of you know google maps but do you know offline areas? It's actually google
maps offline and it's inside Google Maps on your cell phone and I used it in
Norway and in South England to navigate without having signal without having
Wi-Fi and you can just download an offline map and use it as if it where
online and I just tell you how it works. You just go inside your Google Maps app
then go to the left on top go on offline areas you have to be locked in
with your Google profile and then you can already see here two maps it's one
map from Norway and one map from South England where i just have just have been and then you
can choose between local. That would download an offline map where you are
right now. So from the area where you are right now with your Wi-Fi, but you can
also choose custom area and then you can just scroll, zoom out and go to an area
wherever you want to download and just say download and then you have the
offline map from that area. You can use the navigation as if you were online you,
can use the points of interest so it will download all the good stuff from
Google Maps but without the internet.
