Planning a trip to Peru? From exploring the historic streets of Lima to visiting Machu Picchu, there’s plenty to look forward to. But while you’re planning your itinerary, there’s one unexpected expense you may not be thinking about: a medical emergency.

Hawaii had been on my travel list for a while, so finally making my first trip to the islands was pretty exciting. For my first visit, I chose Oahu, and as someone who is very much a beach girl, Hawaii catered to me perfectly. Beautiful beaches, turquoise water, and amazing food made Oahu an easy place to fall in love with. Here are some of my favourite things to see, eat and do.

Most trips go exactly as planned. But when they don’t, having the right documents at your fingertips can make a stressful situation much easier to manage. Whether it’s a lost passport, medical emergency, or an unexpected travel interruption or cancellation, being prepared before you leave can save valuable time and help you access support when you need it most.
