One of the worst problems that a world traveler can experience is to arrive at your destination only to find that you are missing several key items that you need for your trip. To avoid these problems you should consider these packing travel tips for the person that travels around the globe.

You need to ensure you have your passport and other travel documents with you. Keep a copy of these records in case something happens to your originals. Pack a first aid kit to ensure that you do not have to deal with unexpected problems. Do not carry all your credit cards, debit cards, traveler checks, or cash in one location. Divide it up in case something happens.

Make sure you pack enough clothes to allow for at least two changes of clothing for each day. You do not have to pack a great deal of clothes, but you should make plans to pick items that can be worn with different outfits to give you extra choices. Accessories such as scarves, sweaters, or jackets can provide you with more options. When choosing your clothes, try to pick wrinkle-free clothes to avoid having to worry about ironing the clothes each day. Choosing darker colors can help you to avoid showing dirt and stains if they should happen.

Learn what the weather is expected to be like when you make plans to visit a certain area or country. This will allow you to pack the right clothes to cover your needs. You can always pack a couple of extra outfits that can deal with unusual or unexpected weather. One of the most important travel tips is to pack good comfortable shoes that you will be able to walk in. Create a travel checklist to make sure you have everything you need. Plan for the unexpected and you will be able to enjoy your trip no matter where you choose to go.

THOUSANDS RALLY FOR US IMMIGRATION REFORM

WASHINGTON - Tens of thousands of people marched outside the White House on Sunday to press Congress to move on a long-delayed immigration reform, which United States President Barack Obama told the protesters "won't happen overnight".

Organisers hope the 100,000-strong "March for America" will put immigration reform, which failed in Congress in 2006 and 2007, back on the agenda after a year dominated by healthcare reform, the economy and wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Some lawmakers oppose any attempt to help an estimated 12 million illegal immigrants become US citizens while others insist on stronger border controls first.

Mr Obama, who promised to make overhauling the immigration system a top priority in his first year as president, sought to reassure those at the rally with a video message presented on giant screens at the National Mall.

"I've always pledged to be your partner as we work to fix our broken immigration system and that is a commitment that I reaffirm today," Mr Obama said to the cheers of thousands of demonstrators.

But he warned that a long haul was in store for the reform legislation.

"It won't happen overnight," he said.

Lawmakers failed to agree in 2006 and 2007 when they last tried to overhaul the immigration system.
Senators Chuck Schumer and Lindsey Graham released an outline of a Bill last week that calls for illegal immigrants who want to get on the path to legal status to admit they broke the law by entering the US, pay fines and back taxes, and perform community service.

They also would be required to pass background checks and be proficient in English before working toward legal residency, required before becoming a citizen. AGENCIES
