Pack Appropriately
Princess Leia really shows how important it is to have the appropriate outfit for any occasion. From layers to camouflage, she was prepared to hide from her enemies or help others out no matter what. Be prepared for all types of weather that your destination is known for.
Don’t Go Off Of The Beaten Path Unless You Know It’s Safe
Luke learned this the hard way many times. Always stay where it’s safe and if you absolutely must go somewhere that you aren’t sure about, bring a friend along with you and tell someone where you are going so that they can be on the lookout for you just in case you aren’t back by a certain time.
Have A Way To Backup Your Photos
How many times were important things blown up or destroyed in Star Wars? This can teach us all a valuable lesson about the importance of keeping things likes photos that aren’t replaceable safe. While traveling, always back up your photos with a memory stick. Not only will it save them, but it will give your device a lot of space to take as many pictures as you need too without running out of room.
No Matter Where You Go You Can Find Some Place To Relax
Even in the harshest of situations many of the Star Wars characters were able to find a place to get away from it all and regroup. Don’t let appearances fool you, even the strangest of places can make some of the best places to relax.
Always Be Friendly To The Locals
Leia’s friendship with the Ewoks has taught us all that being friendly to the locals can always be helpful. If you are just looking for a good restaurant or need some sort of help, kindness is certainly the way to go.
