    7 Things to Pack when Traveling with Your Family to an Unfamiliar Place

    Up until a couple weeks ago, whenever I thought of visiting Egypt I pictured the pyramids, lots of desert sand, and hot-hot sun. Now that I am taking my family for a month-long adventure, I'm shocked at what we are actually packing! With the help of our tour company, I'm learning that there are some necessary items to bring that I never would have guessed. If you really want to be a world traveler, there are ways to educate yourself about where you are going so that you don't step into harm's way. Use resources like reading the State Department's website for any updates on travel alerts, immunizations, visas, contact info for embassies, and hospitals. It's important to also connect with people who are educated and experienced with where you are going. Here are 7 things we learned you need for traveling to unfamiliar destinations. - By Me Ra Koh
