In Guardian Australia’s new series about travel, the Sydney cook and comedian reveals why switching on overhead hotel lights should always be avoided
Nat’s What I Reckon: ‘Taking lights with you might sound weird but it’s actually a massive travel hack’
That’s why, for a new column, we’re asking prominent Australians about their life in travel. We want to find out about the trips that shaped our favourite personalities, their holiday rituals and, yes, their stories of the times it went awry. Honestly, though, travelling with someone who runs at the same speed as you do can make a massive difference. You’ve got to be up for similar vibes at least most of the time.Our family were big fans of the classic and seemingly mandatory Sydneysider getaway: a trip to the Gold Coast. We did it most years. I was a real middle-ear infection magnet from spending too much time in hotel pools; I remember drinking lots of 7 Up and not being able to stand up without spewing.
I travel a lot for work and conveniently I’m also very sensitive to a lot of things like shit lighting, as I mentioned before, so I carry with me my own personal lighting and a small comforting pillow.
