One of the most contentious issues with travellers is whether you should take a computer while travelling. You camera comes along without question, as does your phone and an incredibly unstylish jacket that could protect you in the arctic (or a swimsuit you'd never wear if you're heading for warmth). These are almost as essential as your passport. But your computer?
My dad and I are for it. My aunt and my boyfriend are against. My mother sensibly offers advice for either alternative. The thing is... I think my father and I are right.
My laptop has allowed for online chats with everyone I could possibly miss. It lets me watch movies during long flights and bus trips and it allows me to keep this blog. I've not at anytime felt like it was at risk of being stolen but even if it was, it's insured up to the eyeballs. It's safer here than back home!
