Covering everything from nosebleeds and bed bugs to nutritional advice for those on the go, Lizard Bites & Street Riots (WindRush Publishers, 2014) is your new carryon staple. Principal author Michel J. Manyak, MD, along with retired Rear Admiral Joyce M. Johnson and international security expert Warren Young pooled their collective experience and in-depth knowledge to create this easy reference guide of issues faced by travelers. Manyak, who holds The Distinguished Eagle Scout Award from The Boy Scouts of America, suggests always packing these five essentials:
- Rubber doorstop: When it comes to hotel room safety, this small addition can make all the difference.
- Imodium: Who needs stomach drama 3,000 miles from home? Make this a suitcase staple.
- Duct tape: Useful for everything from temporary shoe and luggage repair to emergency bandages, blister protection and even a makeshift sling.
- Small portable flashlight: When the power goes out, finding your way to an emergency exit can be the difference between life and death.
- Steripen: Small but powerful, this ultraviolet light water purifier can protect you from unsafe drinking water.
