I once made this epic mistake booking a hotel for an overnight layover. I also had to reschedule my trip to Germany’s Christmas markets when I realized the markets are not, in fact, open over Christmas.
Here are some of the most important lessons we at TPG have learned the hard way, so you don’t have to:
Traveling abroad? Make sure you know your destination’s entry requirements and apply for any required documentation well in advance — take it from my colleague, who was literally deported once when he arrived ill-prepared!
Renting a car? Don’t forget your driver’s license. But also check whether you need one of these additional permits to drive at your destination — or you may end up hoofing it.
