  Last-Minute Vacations at the Best Prices

  The concept of impromptu travel can seem very appealing in the fast paced modern world. If you are looking to get away from the day to day, to recharge your batteries or even just todiscover a new place, then a last-minute vacation might be just what you are looking for.However, with the right strategies, you can score amazing deals and ensure your spontaneous trip is one to remember while keeping costs low. Here's how to book a last-minute vacation on a budget.1.Be Open to Your DestinationBeing flexible is the most important thing when looking to get the best last minute deals. Think in terms of a spectrum of destinations rather than a single location. Use flight comparison tools like Google Flights, Skyscanner or Kayak to help you explore options based on price instead of place. These give you “explore”features that show you the cheapest flights to various places so you can pick a destination within your price range. Last-minute popular destinations include cities that always seem to have flight deals, like Las Vegas and Cancun or European capital cities like Lisbon or Budapest.2.Travel During Off-Peak TimesWhen it comes to saving money, timing is everything. Last-minute vacations on the off-seasons or mid-week, for example, can save a traveler tons of bucks. Airlines, hotels and tour operators often cut prices to fill empty seats and rooms in off-peak times. For instance, a trip to tropical locations in the rainy season or a ski destination in late spring will often come with reduced prices. Flying on Tuesday or Wednesday is also generally less expensive than flying on weekends.3.Use Last-Minute Deal WebsitesSeveral sites specialize in last-minutetravel deals. Platforms like Lastminute.com, Expedia's “Last-Minute Deals”and Priceline's“Express Deals”focus on package deals for discounted flights and hotels as well as car rentals. Subscription services such as Scott's Cheap Flights or Secret Flying also ping you when flash sales and error fares appear — a good way to snag an unbeatable deal.4.Look into Different Types of AccommodationsHotels get all the publicity,but alternatives like Airbnbor Vrbocan save you big, particularly on last-minute bookings. Most hosts reduce their prices to fill up any space, and you might stumble upon unique places to stay for a fraction of the price. And there are house-sitting platforms such as TrustedHousesitters where you can stay in someone's home for no cost in exchange for looking after their pets or property.5.Pack Light and Be Ready to GoAnother great thing about last-minute travel is that it forces you to pack quickly and efficiently. Heading out with nothing but a carry-on helps you avoid luggage fees and makes it easier to take advantage of last-minute flight deals. Have travel documents, toiletries, and a flexible wardrobe packed and ready to go so you can book and leave in hours.6.Use Points and MilesIf you've been hoarding credit card points or airline miles, a spur-of-the-moment vacation is a great opportunity to cash them in. Most loyalty programs allow for last-minute redemptions, and you may have more options for award seats or hotel rooms available during off-peak times. Look at your accounts to see if you can pay for part, or all, of your trip with points.7.Book Activities in AdvanceAlthough the fun of spontaneity is a tube ride or bus tour away, scheduling important activities or tours in advance can save you money and prevent you from missing must-see destinations. Search for discounted tickets on sites like Viator or GetYourGuide, or look up city passes, which package multiple attractions at a discount.So in summary, a last minute trip doesn't have to cost the earth or be overly stressful. With some flexibility, research and creativity, you can score amazing deals and create memorableexperiences. So why wait? Today, start planning your spontaneous getaway and jump at the best deals you can get.

  Heavy Sweating: Heat or an Issue with Health?

  Sweating is a completely normal and necessary function of the body that is essential for regulating temperature, and that’s doubly true during exercise or when it’s just plain hot outside. But if the perspiration slides to a level you’d define as excessive — with no apparent cause, disrupting your daily habits — it might be a sign of an underlying health issue. Medically called hyperhidrosis, there are several types, including focal sweating experienced in the hands, feet, armpits and face and generalized sweating that occurs throughout the body. Everyday,girls and boysbreak a bit of sweat, it’s a surefire sign that you’re either too cold, or that you wear way too many layers, but if you’re sweating for no reason – and can actually soak through your clothes – then there may be a medical reason such as a hormonal imbalance (in which case it’s a side effect of menopause, puberty, pregnancy, and therefore anything that fucks with your hormone situation can also mess with your sweat glands), infection, metabolic disease, or an underlying progressive disease.
