For many travellers, peaceful
and restful sleep is like a dream. But why is getting a good night's sleep
impossible for so many travellers? And what can you do to get a badly needed
night's rest in an unfamiliar place? Well here are tips on how to get a good night's sleep on vacation.
Plan ahead
Several days before your departure, try to gradually adjust your
sleeping times to match your destination's time zone. If you're travelling east
to west, stay up later in the nights before the start of your trip. If you're
travelling west to east, try the opposite; go to sleep and get up earlier. This
can help you fall asleep and wake up in sync with your usual schedule in your
destination time zone.
Do proper research
Before booking a hotel, research online. It will be important if
you really want to have a good sleep on vacation. Check Google Maps to see
if the hotel is on a busy street, along with a crowded freeway, or adjacent to
a major airport runway. When in doubt, call the hotel you want to book and ask
about noise nearby.
Do not change your routine
Getting enough sleep is underrated, especially when travelling
long distances and on business. When you are away from home, you often stay up
too late, party too much and skip exercise. Try to stick to your routine by
going to sleep early while on the road, or at least stick to your usual
bedtime.
Unplug
At least 30 minutes before going to sleep, turn off your
computer, mobile phone, iPad, or TV. The blue or red lights on your device
screens stimulate your brain, making it harder for your body to shut down.
Get Comfortable
To sleep on vacation better, endeavour to balance your
room's temperature — not too hot, not too cold. Also, do not forget to pack
an eye mask, earplugs and a white noise app on your phone. This will also
help you get better sleep.
