Her Bandana — Forty Travel Uses

Friday, September 4th, 2009

As you travel the world carrying only your backpack or other small bag you want to be prepared for as many eventualities as possible. Since you can’t possibly carry all the things you might need, I counsel you to stock up on bandanas instead. With a supply of these, you can get by in at least 40 different situations.

Bandana Tips from Journeykiddies…

I am a grade one teacher in Corbell Elementary School in Frisco, Texas, a suburb northwest of Dallas. We were planning for a camping trip this year and wanted you to know we used your Journeywoman website for ways to use a bandana. My students came up with some ideas that they’d like to add to your article. It will make them very proud to see them posted. Our tips are: using a bandana for (1) a fan (2) a glove (3) write on it to make a message (4) clean a dirty toilet (5) cover your head at night to keep warm and (6) cover your face to keep bugs out of your mouth. Thank you; we enjoyed your site!

And finally, always carry a supply of new bandanas in your backpack. They’re inexpensive, they take up no room at all and they make fabulous gifts and icebreakers for those other travellers you meet along the way. Tell them about this “bandana” list. See if together you can dream up new uses.

A group of approx 80 Vietnam Veterans and their spouses attended this special reunion. They came from all over the country. As we are all aware the Vietnam Vet never received a proper welcome home. They attended a reunion they’ll never forget. Bandana Fever was proud to have sponsored this event. reunionpic1 Bandana Fever Sponsors The 1st Cav Bravo 2-5 Reunion
