Insider Travel Tips & Tricks: From the philosophical to the funny, the serious to the silly, we present a list of learnings from travelling the world. Today we we will start with #1: Pack less.

Travelling with just hand-luggage should be your goal. Do you really need six pairs of heels, tea bags, and an iron? Take less and you’ll travel cheaper (no check-in luggage fees), travel faster (no waiting for your bags), and travel easier (one bag means less to lug around).

Dream Vacation: Bangkok, Thailand.

Did you know that although the capital city of Thailand is known to the world as Bangkok, local people refer to it as Krung Thep but this is just a shortened version of the actual name which consists of 169 characters and makes for a challenging tongue twister after a few drinks. The full name is:

Krungthepmahanakhon Amonrattanakosin Mahinthara Yutthaya Mahadilok Phop Noppharat Ratchathani Burirom Udom Ratchaniwet Mahasathan Amonphiman Awatansathit Sakkathattiya Witsanukamprasit.

This roughly translates to:

City of angels, great city of immortals, magnificent city of the nine gems, seat of the king, city of royal palaces, home of gods incarnate, erected by Visvakarman at Indra's behest.

5) GUAM

Guam isn’t the easiest (or cheapest) island to get to, but it has perfect year-round temperatures, powdery white beaches, gentle waves, teeming coral reefs, Rodeo Drive–worthy boutiques, and delicious culinary traditions. The gorgeous beaches of Tumon are where Guam's nicest hotels are located, including the Dusit Thani, the island's newest five-star resort. The island's 2016 cultural calendar is packed with festivals and cultural events, including the Guam International Marathon, the LIVE International Music Festival, Guam BBQ Block Party, and the annual Shop Guam Festival. The year's highlight will certainly be the 12th Festival of Pacific Arts, or FESTPAC, an event hosted every four years by a different country in Oceania.

4) GUADELOUPE & MARTINIQUE

Martinique is simply one of the Caribbean's most enchanting destinations. Francophiles adore the French island for its gastronomy, its music and élan, and the availability of the finest French products. Meanwhile, the French-Caribbean archipelago of Guadeloupe is an increasingly sought-after destination among sun-seekers and nature lovers looking for an affordable alternative to St. Barth. With budget airline Norwegian Air’s recent introduction of nonstop service from Baltimore, Boston, and New York Kennedy, it’s easier than ever to reach these incredible islands.

3) RIVIERA NAYARIT, MEXICO

"Near Puerto Vallarta, this 192-mile stretch of Pacific coastline is packed with authentic beach towns, all-inclusive resorts, and colonial history, yet it remains relatively under-the-radar when compared with destinations such as Cancún and Los Cabos. Home to hotels and beaches for every taste, this unspoiled region has something to offer all travelers. Jungle adventures and humpback whale watching await nature lovers, and there’s a nascent culinary scene for foodies to tap into. New hotels are popping up here all the time; look for the W Punta de Mita in the first half of the year." - Fodors.com

2) Seattle - Mount Rainier National Park, Washington.

Where to Stay:

" The historic Paradise Inn, which opens in late May for the summer season, is a grand national park lodge. Keeping the ambience of its original 1916 construction, the 121 guest rooms are simple, with wood paneling and flowered bedspreads, but just step outside for dramatic views of Mount Rainier, Nisqually Glacier, and wildflower-filled meadows. "

Summer is here and these are some of the best places to go for a SUMMER GETAWAY!

1) Miami - Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

"After chilling in the green-blue waters or on the white sand beach in front of any of the hotels, head to the trendy celebrity-magnet restaurant Sublime. Its organic and vegan menu continually wins converts—especially for the piccata with lemon-caper sauce. (Yes, the piccata’s vegan; it’s made with grain-and-vegetable Gardein Veggie Chick’n Breasts.) No one disputes the Sublime on the Beach cocktail (vodka, Peachtree schnapps, cranberry, orange, pineapple). And who knows, you just might run into Pamela Anderson, Alec Baldwin, or Alicia Silverstone." - Travel+Leisure
