Live Big
I and my wife Monica decided to take up the world travel seriously only after the year 2019. We took a trip to Europe in 2012 but had limitations for travelling. Finally, we decided to take up “World Travel” more seriously from the year 2019. We had just started our travelling ventures and then the “pandemic” happened in 2020. All the travel came to a standstill. I then lost my father in Feb 2021 to the deadly COVID-19, who was also my travelling partner. His loss was a huge setback for me. Over a period, we have learnt a lot of things which have added to our travel experiences which We would like to share with you.

At NY Hopper, we believe that everyone can embark on their dream of exploring the world. Starting your travel journey can seem daunting, but with the right mindset and preparation, it can be the most rewarding experience of your life.
Here are some practical tips to help you get started:
Plan, But Don’t Over-plan
- Research your destination: Familiarize yourself with the culture, weather, local customs, and top attractions.
- Start small. If you’re new to traveling, pick a destination closer to home or one with simple logistics.
- Leave room for spontaneity: While planning is essential, allow flexibility to explore unexpected opportunities.
Pack Smart
- Essentials first: Pack clothing based on the weather, toiletries, and any personal items you can’t do without.
- Travel light: A carry-on is your best friend; it saves time, effort, and fees at airports.
- Technology tips: Don’t forget universal adapters, a power bank, and offline maps.
Budget Wisely
- Set a budget: Allocate funds for accommodation, food, transportation, and activities.
- Use travel deals: Look for discounted flight and hotel packages through trusted websites.
- Travel during off-peak seasons: This saves money and avoids crowds.
Stay Safe
- Share your plans: Let family or friends know your itinerary.
- Health precautions: Always carry basic medicines, hand sanitizers, and a small first-aid kit.
- Secure documents: Keep digital and hard copies of your passport, visa, and other important documents.
Embrace the Experience
- Learn basic phrases: A simple “hello” or “thank you” in the local language goes a long way.
