Snacks For a Fun Trip

 As any average person I have lots of responsibilities, a huge to do list on a daily basis, all time favorites, hobby to derive pleasure in spare time, cherished dreams and in general definite lifestyle and pace. My top priority in life is to make my family happy and enjoy beauty and versatility of the world together with my children. A no-fail recipe to encourage them to admire nature, architecture, people of different nationality and views is traveling, no matter what kind of trip it is: from the nearest park within walking distance to exotic countries difficult to get even by plane. I always give this priority in my timetable. To stuff the family out of the house is often the only way to make them talk their head off, forgetting about TV, cell phone, computer and all that staff. I’m sure I know traveling topic inside out, having picked up loads of tips from different articles, videos, TV shows, I’ve got through all the challenges with ticket and hotel booking and hope I’ll never have my skills and benefits dried up. But at the same time I haven’t got a clue about food for trips. I came to realize it when all my family, including small children of 2 and 6 was forced to spend long hours at the airport as the flight was postponed. We are hearty eaters and home-made food lovers, so this wasn’t an easy skill to master to resist awful hunger during waiting. From that time I’ve had a new ground to cover – healthy snacks for trips! I’ve picked out some features to take into account. First of all, it should be something healthy, as we keep track of the figure and try to stay fit even when on holiday: so, only low in calories and health promoting meals are welcomed. Then it is expected to be super quick and easy to cook. Of course, no messy clean up to worry about when eating in a crowded place. Remember to avoid the lure of fatty burgers, junk food, gulping down of which may end up in stomach disorder. Here is a set of snacks to suit any trip in any company.
