Travel Tips for Middle Regressors
gonna have to deal with long road trips and want to bring back that feeling of exitement car rides had when you were 12?
here are some tips for you then!
1. have a playlist ready - music always brings me back to childhood, especially if I'm listening to stuff I used to listen back then! make a playlist with your fav songs, mixing stuff you listened to as a kid, for the 2010's nostalgia vibes, and stuff you like now! put your headphones on and and stare of the window as if you were in a music clip, or make up scenarios with ocs, or, if you can, dance around in your seat and sing along the music as loud as you can!
2. download games that don't need Internet- sometimes during your travel, you'll go through places that doesn't have phone signal, and then online games won't work! find fun games that don't need Internet to play!
3. car games! - if you're traveling with family or friends that can be convinced to interact with you, play car games! my favourite are "guess the animal" and "red car", and I can make a post on them if you guys are interested!
4. water + snacks - remember to stock up on food and drinks! no one is going hungry or god forbid dehydrated on my watch! Bring big water bottles and car friendly snacks, like cookies or chips! just take care to not make a mess, cause no one likes to sit on pointy crumbs
5. use comfy clothes - in long car rides, no one likes to be uncomfortable! go for soft fabrics and oversized clothing so you don't feel trapped! also easy to remove shoes so you can put up your feet!
5. pillows and blankets - if you're traveling through the night, you might wanna make the backseat your very own cosy corner. bring a small pillow so you don't have to rest your head on the cold window, and maybe a light blanket to snuggle up in case the car AC is too cold!
6. friends - bring friends along! that might be your tamagochi, a stim toy or a plushie, and they serve to give you a bit of comfort and security in this adventure out of your house! you don't need to necessarily play with them, but you can take aesthetic pics of them against the window, or make a travel blog if you're bored!
these were all the tips I could think of! if you have more tips that help you enjoy your travels as a tween/teen regressor, feel free to share in the comments! we'd love to listen to them!
