5 Tips for stress-free travel without arguing

With the May holiday just around the corner, many families are going on holiday again. Whatever vacation it is, no one wants to go on vacation with family or friends they could argue with. That's why we have 5 tips for stress-free travel, without conflict.

1. Resolve disagreements before the trip
Should there be anything that could disrupt the holiday, sit down and try to solve the problem before the trip starts. Always focus on the reason for vacation and have fun!

2. Set aside conflicts
If there is a disagreement between two people prior to their vacation, if it couldn't be resolved, it would be wiser for you to put it behind you and focus on having a good time.

3. Do activities that everyone can enjoy
During the holidays, make sure you do activities that everyone can participate in. For example, if the kids want to go to an amusement park for a day, make sure there are other options for the older ones to enjoy too.

4. Forget the Social Networks
It's great to post photos of your trip, but leave it at that. When on vacation make sure everyone is not focused on their phones and social media all the time – the photos can be posted after the trip. That's not to say that taking pictures isn't a must, but staying involved with the people around you is even more important.

5. Have fun
The most important tip to avoid conflict during the trip is to enjoy and have fun! Also make sure to look at the travel advice of the country in question, because that too can cause a fight.
