Hey guys, today on The Edgy Veg, I'm here with my friend, Kristen, from Hopscotch The Globe. She runs an awesome travel channel here on YouTube. (upbeat music) - I do, so I travel the world and I share my experiences with my viewers, and also teach tips and advice so people can also travel. - The awesome thing about Kristen, as well, is that she's vegetarian.
So, you guys have been asking how to travel vegetarian, how to travel vegan, what are we bringing on the airplanes. We decided to do that. What is in our carry-on this website? (upbeat music) (laughing) - I carry so much stuff in my carry-on. I carry so much stuff in my carry-on. I put so much stuff... (laughing) I put so much stuff in my carry-on that I can't do a purse because it just makes my shoulder hurt. - We mean business. - Yeah, this is like I know what I'm doing. I'm a seasoned veteran. - Oh yeah, absolutely. - And if you're using backpack too, then you're on the right track. - I wonder how much we're gonna have that's similar or exactly the same. - I hope there's overlap. Do you wanna go first? - Okay, I am obsessed with these. They are the Hemp Heart Bites. Have you tried them? - Oh, no. They are amazing. So, it's just hemp seeds, there's coconut oil, a little bit of cane sugar. They're really good, and they fill you up. You don't need a lot of them to give you that... If you're really hungry, or need a snack, you need a couple of them, that's it. - The first item isn't a food item. The first item is woolly socks. - Wait a minute, wait a minute. - Woolly socks. Please tell me you have woolly socks. - Yay! - Yes! Airplanes are so cold, so cold, and I like to wear flip-flops on the airplane, because I like to be comfortable. So I just take them off, and then I put on these socks, and voila! - I always bring moisturizer for both my body, my hands, and specifically my face 'cause it's so dry on a plane. It's like that recycled, really dry air. - Oh, this is a good one. So, I carry, always, little packets of things. So, this is chocolate hazelnut butter. - Mmm, I love that. - And coconut oil because I never know when I'm gonna need coconut oil or chocolate hazelnut butter. - I hate the breakfast meals on a plane 'cause it's usually just bread, bread, bread, and I don't do well with gluten. So, I have this, it's like a quinoa, creamy coconut kind of oatmeal, and I just ask for hot water. I'm good to go. - That's perfect. - Yeah, it's great. - My next thing is dried fruit. So, this is dried pineapple. This is my favorite. - Baba! (dinging) - Dried pineapple is my absolute favorite. It's like candy, so if you want a healthier kind of yummy, candy-like snack, this is really great. - I don't know why this is in here. This is not what I usually bring! (laughing) And this actually, I think, has some booze in it. Let's put that back. - Drinking and flying. - Deodorant because you don't wanna reek. Especially the person next to you would really appreciate it if you didn't smell. It smells really good. It's really subtle. - Nobody would be mad at you for pulling that out.

If you want to detox from social media and relax in an irie atmosphere there’s one place in Central America you have to visit. See it to belize it is the hashtag everybody uses on Instagram and Discover how to BE seems to be their latest campaign Belize is located next to Mexico and Guatemala and most travelers that visit, come from these neighboring countries just like I did. I took a bus to Belize which costs around 30-40 dollars and once you cross the borders you pay approx 40 dollars tourist tax.
I stayed 2 nights in Belize city before taking the water taxi to Caye Caulker a small island that everybody visits once they get to Belize. The water taxi goes almost every hour and costs 25 us dollars for a round trip. You can also buy the tickets before online, I will include a link for it in the description box. The ride takes about 20-30 min and once I arrived I walked to my hostel. I stopped every 2 seconds because everything I saw was so colorful, breath taking and photogenic. Plus my favorite part about Caye Caulker was that I could walk bare foot the whole day! Simply amazing and something I can’t even do anymore in Cape Vert I stayed for 2 nights and that’s all you’ll need because Caye Caulker is a small island so what should you do while you’re here? A sailing and snorkeling trip is a must because who wouldn’t want to explore these beautiful crystal clear waters? The captain of the boat is Steve and he works with two others who are also on the boat During our boat trip breakfast and lunch was included and we stopped a couple of times to go snorkeling and even swim with the sharks! I don’t remember the price for the trip but will include the link to their site below Another thing you can also do on the island and what I love to do in general is walking If you walk around the island you’ll probably reach your required 10.000 steps and you’ll have beautiful views of the place My stay was short but there are 3 places I can recommend for food. First is Rose’s Grill & Bar if you want to have the catch of the day and delicious lobster. I had a small lobster and it cost me 25 belizian dollars. I went back the next day so I could film the place as it was dark when I was there. The Ice and Beans Coffee Shop is another must on the island and you have to try the mini donuts. the owner is a friendly guy from poland who opened this coffee shop that sells these tasty treats and flavored iced coffees. And as with any restaurant or place in Belize the view that comes with it is an instagram moment. Make sure you also try the bread pudding. There’s a bread pudding lady on the island that sells her treats on the streets but when I went to film her she didn’t allow it, so I’ll just mention it here Normally I don’t stay at hostels but during my trip last year I stayed at many. Airbnb has become so expensive that hostels and couch surfing are now the cheapest options. In Caye Caulker I stayed at Bella’s Backpackers as my couch surfer host recommended it to me. I paid 30 belizean dollars a night to stay at the air-conditioned room and the rooms without air conditioning are 25 dollars. I don’t even like airco but no other room was available when I arrived plus the benefit was that my room was smaller and had less people At Bella’s you can chill in the hammocks use their bikes to explore the island in the back you’ll find their canoes which you can also use And here you’ll also find the toilet and shower It was a nice hostel for that price and if you’re with a group hostels are your best options. Unfortunately my trip to Caye Caulker quickly came to an end and I took the water taxi back to Belize city. Have you ever visited Belize or do you want to go? Let me know in the comments below. You just don't want to check things if you don't have to.
There's only certain situations, I would say, you'd check something, but for the most part, always have your camera gear, your drones, all that, on you when you're going through the airport and going to another country or another state or wherever it is that you're going. Okay, another important one for the safety of your gimbal is use some sort of clamp, either the one that came with your drone, but if you're like me, and you accidentally threw that away a long time ago, buy a replacement, get a clamp on there, so that your gimbal is not spinning freely. You're gonna be throwing your backpack on, off, you're getting on and off planes. If your connection is tight, you're gonna be running through the airport, you might get hit. There's a lot of things that are gonna happen with your bag, so you don't want your gimbal flying around and to get broken in transport. Alright, when you land, before you start flying, I have a couple things that I suggest you do before you get out there and start getting those awesome shots. So you're gonna wanna reset your gyro and your IMU. So basically those are the things that keep your drone stable in the air, that keeps it from drifting, tilting, doing all that stuff, keeps it super stable. Things may happen when you're traveling. It may go out of whack by the time you get somewhere and you start flying. Just a precautionary thing, get there, reset your stuff, make sure that everything's good to go before you start flying. Okay, the next tip goes right along with that. You need to do a test flight. So you need to turn on your drone, make sure everything's connected, make sure the GPS is working, all that good stuff. Then take it up, let it sit there for 20, 30 seconds, bring it back down, land it, and then turn it all off, because you want to do a test flight. Basically, the test flight makes sure that everything's working properly, that you're not gonna get a flyaway as soon as you take it up in the air. What happens if like 20 seconds into your flight you loose connection and it takes off? So you just want to make sure that things are working properly. I had an issue when I was in Ecuador. I actually did not do this, and I took it off and it went flying right away, and within 15 seconds. we're going to review some software that can help you design your own system, so like a progressive system where you can get creative and see how your system actually works, test it and the software that's really good And not too expensive rule that extreme or version two we're looking at so it's easily available I'll show you the Wits website at the end very very good. It'S definitely worth the money. What is it? Twenty? Nine? Ninety five US dollars, so it's not crazily expensive and it is very effective this website.
It does a lot, a lot of statistics and things and you can undo and stuff like that. So let's get into it! Here'S the the general layout here and um, as you can see, there's the table there. Let'S cancel this. This is this. Is what you'll see when you load it up? As you can see on the side, you can choose your chip value. You can actually here in this setting. If you want to just start, as just say, have your chip unit basis, seven, you can actually type in seven there and it'll always come up as seven units. So you turn this on. So when I put in a number it'll always be seven, so you can set your own units, which is good as opposed to the ones there. So there we go there now. Also, when you know a bit more about roulette the neighbors, you can switch that on. So the neighbors are either side of the number. So if it's number just say it's number 20 on the table, I don't know every number it's black 20, so 14 is next to the 20 on the wheel and number 1 is on the other side. So 49. 1! So when you switch that on one neighbor, either either side and let's actually put 20 in, didn't, do a chip PHA, that's why? Okay, I have to actually place it on the number and then I'll give you the other neighbors so 30 to the neighbors are obviously zero and 15. That'S a great feature turn that off again and then that'll deactivate that feature now the basic basic settings, as you can see undo you can go right back, reverse the spins. All the spins will be shown up here. There'S a lot you can is about 27. 28. You can show here, but you can actually increase the size of the window. So all these spins, even that up disturb, distorts the image. Let'S just do some spins, when we, when we click on spindle dude random numbers, it goes quite. You can go right back a lot. You can see at the side there a lot of spins there and we can put it back into this setting, so you can adjust that which is good. Now it's actually use it now. Obviously, we've been playing around there. So, let's reset it so file new session, you can save your session if you like, that'll, save it there in the area under settings, don't save okay, so we can either do random numbers, which is just clicking on the spin. Okay, that's generating the random numbers there or we can actually, if you're using. If you want to see the system and use it with other to say, you're online and you've got a casino you're using and number 11 comes up. You can actually click the individual numbers and they'll actually place there too. If you want to use that for certain things to see if your system is going to work - and you can record this - obviously um save that so again file your session. We don't want to save okay, so we've got that cut through. You can actually obviously shows here. So let's make a bet dollar one dozen and seventeen actually shows you where the units are which is good. Now I've start the bankroll is, you can start with just say $ 50 $ 100 or whatever you want to start with and that'll. Obviously, progress up and down if you win or lose, but I like to start a zero to see. You know what, if you're, getting anywhere, I guess. Okay, now, the other thing is with the menus, as we saw you can do a new session. That starts everything from scratch. Again we can do auto. Spins so just say want to put one: it's always going to do the same bit so just say we put five on by clicking. It increases it by that unit. So five is going to go up by increments of five okay, so one dollar - let's put five so you're, left clicking on the mouse. If your mouse set up to left click that way or right, click on the mouse will actually remove, it increase remove okay, okay! So let's let's do an auto spin. So that means that's gon na do the same spin over and over, instead of us manually, going spin spin spin, let's clear that out, let's put on there, let's set up auto spin, always been set up. You can go into the options. I'Ve set it to a thousand spins settings are here. You can there's lots of other features, but I've just sitting into that this stage. You know we'll play around with that. Okay, so I've got a thousand. We can go in steps which is just one under the other, but let's run it as you can see very fast. That'S what's great about this system. You have to wait around for the spins if you know using an online casino if you're testing that so, let's see what happens after a thousand spins just betting on red should probably even it out you'd say: wouldn't it pretty much if you're well, that's a bonus Anyway, there's a countdown you can stop at any time can restart it. Let'S just keep it going very close to zero. You would assume, then again, it's kind of a negative this time, but, as you know, it could go either way. Couldn'T it okay, so to get out of this, get back to canceling. That old I spend is to cancel let's renew everything new, don't say, that's a great feature, but that's only really viable. I guess, if you're using the same bets each time, it might be more advanced time. I we looked in the deep nitty-gritty of it. You can also import spins, which is interesting. Now we're going to look at activating their systems inbuilt in here and I'll show you those and you can also download more from the website from the extreme website. Now. The good thing is all these statistics and things you can look at. First of all, let's go to the betting options, so you can actually change. There'S a starting bankroll! You can change! You can set your minimum maximum bets, which is good, just tick over it tick. You can put the amounts in there, so you can set the table limits, which is good. If you want to look at what the casinos are actually doing put their table limits on there configure goes into the colors, etc sounds play around with that pay table. You can actually set how much you're you're getting back for the returns, but obviously can't see any point of changing that to be honest, layout type. So this is where you can change it to single double zero or no zero, which is good screen, size, etc. It'S about an extra feature that I haven't downloaded yet I'll review that when I have a look at it later, but obviously it can integrate some sort of technology that her can can can try and predict the what the software I guess online will be doing predicting The numbers - but I haven't looked at that at this stage - that's an add-on that you can purge. So let's look at these statistics. Let'S actually do some numbers I'll just do some simple bits: let's do some spins don't expect to be in positive, because I'm not really trying to to make money at this stage. Okay, so also, this is interesting. All this is good because you can clear this out. Okay, if you've got lots of bits on there clear that out, okay, so now, let's look at the stat, so there's everything you can think of the main ones that I look at you look at the betting history. It'S got everything here. The past spins what's been bet; okay, also, we've got, which is great and I'll. Show you this that's a little graph. That shows you what's happening, so you can see a visual of how your I mean. You can see it there in the bankroll, but just gives an indication of how the progression system is going. So, let's keep doing, let's do some more dough ones. Now, as an example I'll just shake his, he can have this up and running as well. All I spin run as you can see now. I'Ve got nothing on there. That'S talking him do anything is going to be a flatline. It'S dead, okay! So, let's, let's just put some things in there run so as you can see that progression system. If we keep that as it is going up and down up and down, you expect it to do that. It'S actually going quite well, but, as you can see you can you can put any numbers in there and you know multiples there and test it out, but yeah. It'S always going to go up and down, I'm not really trying to design a system or just showing you, for example, that's great! You can also switch it off to reset okay. Let'S just do, let's do one of each it's a test. Okay, now to show you all, this sticks can also do just what I run reset now cancel. So let's have a look with all the statistics. You'Ve got the simulation time. You can actually change the spins per hour. If you are the type of person that loves playing poker and loves watching movies then you certainly have to watch California Split. This movie is about a bunch of poker players ending up in a tough spot in the city of Reno, Nevada. This movie is quite old but you are certainly going to love the classy way in which the director portrayed poker.
If you want to watch an action packed movie with poker in it then you should get your hands on a DVD copy of Casino Royale. Casino Royale is a James Bond movie that was filmed only recently. One of the best scenes in Casino Royale is the poker match of James Bond and his enemy. I will not tell you how the poker match went and I will not tell you who won but you are certainly going to experience a lot of poker drama when you watch it. Casino Royale is a perfect movie to watch if you want a lot of action and a lot of poker. If you are a James Bond fan then you are certainly going to love Casino Royale even more. A nice poker movie to watch that has comedy and drama in it is Honeymoon in Vegas which stars Sarah Jessica Parker. Nothing is actually more hilarious than losing your fiancée in a poker match! You will get more of this hilarious stuff when you watch the actual film. Sometimes you just need to sit back and relax and enjoy a film like this, right? One of the more recent movies out there is Lucky You starring Eric Bana and Drew Barrymore. This movie is about how one plays his or her cards in life. It is the kind of movie that keeps you thinking. If you like movies that make you wonder even after the show is done then you should certainly watch this movie. This movie is also a great date movie. If you simply want to take someone out and have a good time at the movies or even at the comfort of your own home then you can select this movie. It is great for a first date or even for your one hundredth date! There are so many layers to analyze in the movie. I personally think that watching poker movies makes playing poker much more fun. You can add a certain personality when you play. You can pretend that you are like James Bond in Casino Royale. At the end of the day, watching movies will help your poker game. Who ever named the television set an idiot box is an idiot himself. That person never realized that television can actually educate a lot of people out there. Sometimes in poker, you may try to bluff and think that you are successful but in the end, the real bluff is on you. Those who do not realize that television is fun and educational are really missing out on a lot of things lately. In U.S, betting is officially permitted under the Federal law but banned in many of the states, with a few neighborhood exceptions. Legal betting states contain New Jersey and Nevada, although a lot of states have approved laws that make legal betting in some municipalities in addition to on the Native American grounds. Online betting laws, conversely, have successfully banned operators as of doing trade inside the states.
You have to understand that the first choice of policymakers has for all time been to forbid online betting. But anxieties regarding the constitutionality of such a ban in addition to the brain boggling troubles which is related with enforcing the prohibition have again and again killed any probable events along those very lines. So Congress has to choose an alternative to attempt to hit the difficulty by putting off the stream of the capital amid the bettors and the casinos beneath the UIGEA. Online casino is cool. Congress is balanced to undo its advance to online betting laws and wash the plague of the problem of UIGEA. Beneath a duo of proposed bills of the house together with a sponsored by Ron Paul and Barney Franks, Congress now becomes visible poised to make legal and control the industry. At whatever time Congress in fact deems such a reasonable advance you can suppose that there are possible tax profits to be gained. As a result it shouldn’t approach as a shock to find out that one of the main benefits of legally recognized betting is additional income for Government. Current studies have pointed toward the tax incomes that the government situates to gather from a legal online betting industry could arrive at over $50 billion more than the following 10 years. With any luck, based on present emotions in Congress concerning internet betting laws, which is U.S. based internet betting fans will quickly be capable of take pleasure in their sport lawfully through the U.S. based processes that would be beneath the taxing power, the scrutiny and of the government of Federal.

Support Group
It's going to be difficult to lose weight on your own, even if you are the only one trying to lose weight. Find a group that will motivate and help you keep on track. Join an online support group. Tell your family! Tell all your friends. If you keep your plan to yourself, it's that much easier to cheat too many times or binge secretly in your room. By telling the people around you, you're creating guidelines to help you reach your goal. They'll also help you by not offering high-calorie foods or other dishes that will tempt you into overeating. 6. Mistakes Are Inevitable If you're human, you're not perfect. Despite your earnest desire to lose weight and be fit, you will probably mess up here and there. You'll go out for a night of fun with your friends, and it will be difficult in stopping your hand for reaching for those tortilla chips. Don't freak out! One night of fun won't kill you. The key, as always, is getting back on track! Don't let one mistake haunt you. You don't have to give up on your whole diet plan. Just leave your mistake as a mistake and start again the next day. The downfall of any mistake is repeating it. As long as you forget about it and get back on track, you'll be good to go. 7. Hang Your Old Jeans On the Door Need a reminder about your weight loss goals? Hang the jeans that don't fit on your door or next to your mirror. Take out that favorite blouse that doesn't button up and hang it up as well. Now, don't just hang them there and stare at them. Try them on once in a while. We know it doesn't fit, but trying it on will remind you how much you have left to lose. It's a motivating gauge. A simple reminder may be all it takes to push you to eat right and exercise. 8. Keep Your Balance Simple balancing exercises can help tone your muscles and help you lose weight. Balance workouts also develop your core muscles and can even be beneficial to your brain. You don't need to look for an expensive class to get started. You can begin with easy, simple exercises at home. While brushing your teeth, alternate standing on one leg. Switch every 30 seconds. You can incorporate this little exercise with other daily activities. For example, while you wait for your coffee to finish boiling, while you put on your makeup, or while you dry your hair. Don't make things into challenges when they don't have to be! |
