The travel pant looks like a dressier trouser, stretches like your favorite yoga pants, resists wrinkles and stains like a sports fabric, dries instantly and stands up to brambles, rocks and twigs on the trail. 

I am an adventure traveler and my 10 day trips usually combine extensive backpacking, whitewater rafting, bicycling through towns, photography and nice dinners with good friends. Packing for a variety of outings in one 65-liter pack is exceedingly difficult. I am constantly on the hunt for articles of clothing that are multi-purpose. Pants are one of the most difficult items to choose. But the Lolë Travel pants made it easy. The fabric blend of nylon, bi-constituent fiber and spandex is warm when it’s cold and breathable when it’s warm out. These full length pants both keep your legs covered from cuts and scratches and protect you from the sun with UPF 50+. They are also naturally antibacterial making them perfect for repeated wear on a trip.

I usually gripe about the price of active wear, but in the first week of ownership, I wore these pants hiking in the Eastern Sierras (including through a stream), on a five hour car drive, to a nice dinner, an all-day bike ride, and then to work; They are well worth the $80 price tag.  Versatile, comfortable, feminine, and rugged, these are the only pants you will need on adventures near and far.

Travel For Adventurous Women

9 Best Women’s Travel Pants (Quick-Dry, Comfortable & Stylish)

Wherever your travel adventures take you, a comfortable yet stylish pair of travel pants are a necessity.  While denim can be a great basic for travelling light, they aren’t always the most comfortable option for long haul flights or outdoor activities, especially in hot weather. And leggings or yoga pants are comfortable but generally not dressy enough for a night out on the town. 

The ideal travel pants are versatile and are both fashionable and functional. Look for something that can be comfortable if you’re on a long-haul flight or hitting hiking or biking trails but can still take you to dinner or meeting up with new friends in style.

The best pants are lightweight yet durable and are comfortable for any activity.  There are lots of great options that provide quick-dry fabrics if you need to wash and dry your pants along the way and help minimize your wardrobe.

Other great features to look for are zippered pockets to stash valuables . If you choose a neutral color such as black, grey, or navy, they can easily be dressed up by swapping shoes or tops in the evening or adding an accessory like a scarf or necklace to take them into the evening.

The team at Travel Belles recommends these pants for finding your perfect travel companion.

Best Travel Pants For Women

Prana – women’s brenna pants.

Read Amazon Reviews | See on Prana.com

These are a great go-to pant that can take you from the trails to dinner in style with an edgy flair.  These are a more fitted moto-style pant that works well for women who prefer the style of skinny jeans with a mid-rise. They’re made from water-repellent nylon with stretch that provides comfort and moves with you.  The quick-dry fabric makes them easy to wash and dry along the road.

Prana – Halle Roll-up Pants

Another great travel pant from Prana, with a more relaxed fit than the Brenna Pant.  The Halle pants also roll up and snap to convert into capris – perfect if you are exercising outdoors, hopping on a bike, or just relaxing in warm weather. Then roll them down to take into the evening hours – they feature a slight boot cut bottom when long.  The fabric is a quick-dry stretchy fabric that is water repellent and also offers sun protection with a UPF 50+ rating. An all-around great travel pant.

Columbia Women’s Just Right Pants

Read Amazon Reviews | See on Columbia.com

If you’re looking for a lightweight pant that can take you from the hiking trail into dinner, these are perfect. Dress them up or down, they’re great for travel as they are lightweight but durable and dry quickly if you need to wash them on the road.  They shield you from the sun with UPF 50 and have a bit of stretch to move with you. There is a small zippered pocket to stash your valuables as well.

NONWE Hiking pant

Read Amazon Reviews

These sporty pants provide comfort and mobility with a partially adjustable waistband and a regular fit.  They have multiple pockets, including a cargo pocket with a zip that’s large enough to hold your valuables like cell phone and keys while on your adventures.  They’re made from a lightweight but durable fabric that’s also water-resistant.

Columbia Saturday Trail Pant

Although these are designed specifically for hiking, they have a flattering fit that allows them to work off-trail as well. The fabric is water and stain repellent, making them an excellent choice for multiple wears – and they include UPF 50 sun protection.  They feature a partially elastic waist making them super comfortable as well as a roll-up leg for converting into capris in the warmer weather. They’re plenty of pockets to hide your valuables – including two side pockets and two back pockets.

MIER  convertible cargo pant

These sporty cargo pants feature zip off legs to convert into shorts with a 9-inch inseam, making them a versatile option for sporty travels.  They are made with a blended fabric that is water-resistant and quick dry. They also feature a partial elastic waist, removable belt, and functional pockets to hold your essentials.

Lole Travel Pant

These essential travel pants are lightweight with enough stretch to hold their shape and keep you comfy and stylish on your travels.  They feature two zippered hand pockets and two back pockets for storage and come in a quick-dry fabric.

OUTDOOR RESEARCH Voodoo Pant

These are technical pants that have enough style to take you from the day to night. With a convenient slim cargo pocket that is big enough to hold your passport, these are perfect travel companions.  They are wind and water-resistant in a lightweight, quick-dry fabric.

North Face Aphrodite Pant

Read Amazon Reviews | See on NorthFace.com

This sporty pant features an elastic waist with drawstrings at the waist and ankles.  The ruching along the legs lends to a flattering and comfortable fit. The fabric has enough stretch to move with you and quick dry for washing on the go.  They also feature plenty of pockets, including a large zippered pocket to hold your valuable.

Shopping Tips:

Here is a recap of what to look for in a good pair of travel pants. If you decide that one of our picks above works well for you we’ve got you covered since all of the options above passed the test but these are the things to consider if you continue shopping for pants elsewhere online or in stores:

Avoid 100% or Denim: While cotton is comfortable to wear, it soaks up a lot of moisture (i.e. sweat) making you feel hot in sticky, especially in hot and humid destinations. According to some studies cotton can hold over 27x its weight in water and you’ll often hear hikers and backpackers say “ cotton kills ” because wet clothes can become a major liability in extreme cold. While this isn’t a major concern unless you are going on an extreme adventure vacation, just having wet clothes that you can’t dry in your hostel or hotel can be annoying.

Breathable: Feeling comfortable while you travel is key. Spending all day walking a beautiful city like Rome or Seville on a sunny day can be a wonderful experience but doing so in sticky, sweaty clothes with a backpack sticking to your back can ruin the experience to a certain degree. Wearing clothes that keep you cool and dry and comfortable are key.

Quick-Dry: Many hotels, hostels and even Airbnbs in some countries don’t have clothes dryers so you want a pair of pants that can easily be dried over-night just by airing it out by a window, in front of a fan or near a radiator. Most of the pants selected above are just that, they’re designed for hiking and don’t hold much moisture at all.

Neutral Color: While you may love the feeling of wearing bright cheery colors in your everyday outfits when you’re traveling it’s just more practical to simply and use muted colors. Neutral colors are much more flexible as they go with pretty much any other piece of clothing, shoes or accessories you are wearing. Black, grey or dark blue or can look elegant and blend in more whether you are going out for dinner in the city or visiting a church or mosque and don’t want to offend the locals or draw unnecessary attention to yourself.

UPF 50: In this day and age, we’re all aware of the dangers of the sun. While almost everyone uses sunscreen, we don’t all think to wear sun protection clothing when we travel. Fortunately, there are so many clothing options on the market now that incorporate UPF that it’s no longer hard to find stylish clothes that are made with special fabric. Several of the pants we’ve selected above are UPF 50+.  

Speaking of the sun, why not pair your new pants with a packable sun hat?   In that article, we give our top picks and also include a UPF rating chat and explain why we always select a rating of 50 or higher. Hopefully, this list of recommendations has helped narrow down your choices for your next pair of pants or maybe even found the ones for you.

Travel + Leisure / Danie Drankwalter

The beauty of travel pants is that they can go just about anywhere. Often made from stretchy material but designed to look like classic pants, you can wear them from the plane to the taxi to dinner and beyond. Over a period of six months, we tested 32 pairs of men’s travel pants for fit comfort, quality, durability, design, and value, and found the 17 you should consider when looking for that perfect fit.

We wore each pair of pants during daily commutes and international travel, taking them everywhere from the plane, train, and bus to the office, dinner, and beyond. They were spun through washers, flipped through dryers, and stuck in line at the grocery store. We selected options for every occasion and budget.

In the end, our top picks are comfortable, durable, and work in just about any environment. They also fit a wide variety of body types.

Best Overall

Lululemon abc classic-fit pant warpstreme.

• Comfort 5 /5
• Quality 5 /5
• Durability 5 /5
• Design 5 /5

These are extremely comfortable and breathable, and are versatile enough to wear on a variety of occasions.

These are classic fit pants, so if you’re looking for something with a slimmer profile, you may prefer something else. 

The Lululemon ABC Classic-fit Pant Warpstreme checks all the boxes for the optimal men’s travel pants. We gave it a five out of five in every single category, so these pants really could not have done much better. Whether you’re looking for comfort, quality, durability, design, or value, these pants fit the bill. Their comfortable build means you can stretch your legs when sprinting to catch the bus, and they’ll get you through long, 16-hour travel days with ease. After weekly wear for commuting over a five-month period, they still look good as new with no signs of shrinkage or fading.

The pants come in a classic style with five pockets deep enough to fit the biggest phones and thickest wallets. They can be worn in almost any setting, including for workouts, work, travel, nights at home, brunch, and dinner dates. On top of that, they don’t stretch or shrink after multiple runs through the wash and the material doesn’t pill.

All in all, the Lululemon ABC Classic-fit Pant Warpstremes are the travel pants to beat. While the price is a bit higher than others on the list, we wouldn’t be surprised if you headed back to the store and picked up a few more pairs in different colors. Luckily, there are 16 options to choose from.

The Details: 26 to 50 | 53 percent elastomultiester, 47 percent recycled polyester

Best Everyday

Everlane the performance traveler chino.

These pants are stylish and offer a bit of stretch for a more comfortable fit. 

The jogger bottom may wrinkle and start to look a little less neat after a few wears.

The Everlane The Performance Traveler Chinos might seem a bit tight at first, but after giving them a couple wears and washes throughout five months of tests, we found them to have a perfect fit. They’re known for being super comfortable, even while walking through terminals or spending hours waiting for a flight.

Everlane uses high-quality material for their pants, so the stretch waistband and jogger cut around the ankles won’t fall apart after a couple washes. We don’t recommend throwing them in the dryer, but if they somehow end up there, just give the pants a wear and they should stretch out after a couple minutes.

When it comes to design, the jogger cut gives them a different feel than some of the other pants on this list. The pockets are also deep, while the side zipper pocket allows for additional security. Even with the zip pockets, these are pants you could wear at the office or out with a white T-shirt in summer.

The Details: 28- to 40-inch waist, 30- or 32-inch length | 94 percent cotton, 6 percent elastane

Travel + Leisure / Joe Raccuglia

Best for Work

Mack weldon radius flex jogger.

Mack Weldon

• Comfort 4.5 /5

They're sophisticated and can be subbed in for formal occasions.

These pants are not adjustable and the button in front has a slide-to-lock system.

The Mack Weldon Radius Pant manages to be comfortable and breathable, while also bringing a touch of sophistication to your wardrobe. The material is not as thin as other travel pants, which helps the fit stay true through multiple wears. While we didn't find them to be as comfortable as other pairs on this list, we didn't struggle when wearing them throughout an entire day.

The pants come in a classic four-pocket style — two in front, two in back. We noted the high-quality feel of the pants and think they’d be a good fit for formal events. They can be dressed up easily and look like a nicer pair of chinos, and they come with tiny extra compartments for smaller items like coins or Airpods. Additionally, the fabric wicks moisture and is lightweight without being too thin. Better yet, the fabric is not impacted by washing or drying and there’s no pilling, either.

The Details: S to XXL | 91 percent polyester, 9 percent spandex

Travel + Leisure / Chris Abell

Best Durable

Alo day and night pant.

These pants balance breathability with durability and offer a perfect fit.

Not everyone loves a jogger style, and they run a bit long.

Unlike some of the other travel pants out there, the Alo Day and Night Pant is not adjustable nor is the waist elastic, which gives it a bit of a dressier look. Still, these pants’ durability impressed us overall. They are stretchy and made from high-quality fabric that’s light and breathable for ultimate comfort. Over our five-month test, we loved their versatility and quality design. 

Their dressier look means you can wear them to meetings or on long travel days and they’ll remain wrinkle-free. They’re breathability makes them perfect for a warm summer day, while their durability means you can even throw the pants in the drier if need be. They come in a classic, four-pocket style and your phone can fit in the back pockets without falling out. While these pants are on the pricey end, we feel it’s warranted for a pair of this quality. 

The Details: 28 to 38, regular and long

Travel + Leisure / Jodi Espinosa

Best for Tall Guys

L.l.bean men's venture stretch five-pocket pants.

The pants fit perfectly and provide total range of motion without looking frumpy or baggy. 

These offer a more casual look so they may not work for formal occasions.

When you’re tall, it can be a challenge to find a comfortable pair of pants. L.L.Bean, however, seems to have solved the problem with their Men's Venture Stretch Five-pocket Pants. These pants are breathable and light, and aren’t super stretchy. They have a trim fit and look more like slightly relaxed slacks than joggers.

Offering a wide range of motion, we felt these seemed more athletic compared to dress pants, but we noted that they aren't casual-looking like men's sweatpants or shorts. The pants are a step above casual, making them versatile enough to work in a variety of settings. The material is comfortable and pockets are deep enough to fit your phone, wallet, and keys and still looks new after five months of wearing.

While we wouldn’t consider the pants to be luxury, they certainly are not “fast fashion,” either, so you can feel good about buying them in multiple colors.

The Details: 30- to 44-inch waist, 29- to 34-inch inseam | 96 percent nylon, 4 percent spandex

Travel + Leisure / Thomas Knief

Best Splurge

Livsn ecotrek trail pants.

These pants are high quality and well worth the splurge.

These pants tend to run small, so consider sizing up.

We all deserve to indulge ourselves every once in a while, and if you’re considering splurging on a pair of travel pants, look no further than Livsn’s Ecotrek Trail Pants. The material sits in that perfect space between thick and thin and feels very high quality, making them perfect for all seasons. These splurge-worthy pants will last a long time, and won’t wear easily over time or in the wash.

There’s a bit of stretch to the fabric so we were comfortable wearing them for light workouts as well as commuting to work and dining out after. In total, the pants have six pockets: two in the front and two sets of two in the back. The back pockets all have zipper closures so your belongings remain secure.

The Details: 29- to 40-inch waist, 30-, 32-, and 34-inch inseam | 70 percent recycled nylon, 25 percent nylon, 5 percent spandex

Most Comfortable

Lululemon city sweat jogger.

• Design 4.5 /5

These are the softest pants we have ever worn. 

They are expensive for joggers. 

Lululemon managed to make it on our list of the best men’s travel pants twice, and if you get the opportunity to try these on, you’ll know exactly why. Frankly, these are some of the most comfortable pants we’ve ever worn. They have a drawstring for a perfect fit, the tapered leg is slimming, and they find the perfect balance between a relaxed and put-together look. After five months of use on planes, trains, and during daily commutes, we found these to be incredibly comfortable.

These are high-quality pants as well (typical for Lululemon as a brand), and have an almost satin-like texture. Even after several washes, the pants retained their form and fit perfectly. They have four pockets, including two zippered back pockets. 

The Details: 26 to 50 | 52 percent polyester, 42 percent cotton, 6 percent Lycra® elastane

Best Joggers

Vuori sunday performance jogger.

The fit is perfect and they’re comfortable enough to wear all day long.

They're too casual for formal occasions.

The Vuori Sunday Performance Joggers have an adjustable waist made of stretchy elastic, a snug overall fit, and breathable fabric — basically, they’re the kind of pants you’ll never want to take off. Luckily, they’re stylish and comfortable enough to be versatile for most occasions. 

The drawstring adds adjustability, while the tapered legs with fitted cuffs give wearers a slimming look. We loved that the pants felt lightweight without being too thin, and they retained their shape and feel even after many wears and washes. There are two front pockets and two zippered back pockets, along with an additional zippered pocket on the upper thigh. You can wear the pants while hiking, traveling, or running errands, though we might not take them to the office or out to dinner. After five months of use, they still look good as new and the versatility and comfort of these joggers will have you coming back for a second purchase.

The Details: XS to XXL | 88 percent polyester, 12 percent elastane

Vuori Ponto Performance Jogger

They’re soft, stretchy, and incredibly comfortable.

They run small so you’ll want to size up for a baggier fit.

A soft pair of joggers will quickly make their way into your everyday wardrobe, and there’s no softer travel pant than the Vuori Ponto Performance joggers. The extremely stretchy material is soft and comfortable, lending itself well to lounging around the hotel room or taking a long flight.

Made of high-quality material, these pants are incredibly breathable and are some of the comfiest pants we've ever worn. Despite running on the tight side, we didn't find them restricting and they maintained their comfort and softness throughout a long day of wearing. The pants also have a variety of well-thought-out details, like the inverted zipper on the pockets with a spring loaded pull and metal aglets on the drawstring. The pants have two zippered side pockets that will fit a phone or wallet comfortably, making them a great choice for the gym as well.

The Details: XS to XXL | 89 percent recycled polyester, 11 percent elastane

Best Casual

Vuori transit jogger.

They are comfortable and can be worn in a variety of different settings.

The pants run a bit short and snug.

Finding casual pants that can be worn around town, on the road, and even on the soccer field makes life a touch more comfortable. The Vuori Transit Jogger is just that pant. They are neither too tight, nor too baggy, and the drawstring combined with the elastic waist makes it possible to wear them while playing sports. They breathe well and can be worn whether the temperature is hot or cold, and they allow for a full range of motion. There are two spacious front pockets that have enough space for a wallet or cell phone as well as two back pockets.

Made from good quality material, we loved that these pants are comfortable for days spent at the computer as well as long trips on the bus or in the car. Throw them in the washer and dryer without needing to worry about wearing them out. 

The Details: XS to XXL

Best Stylish

Vuori meta jogger.

After five months of use while traveling, they still look new and never wrinkled — even when stuffed into packing cubes.

We wish they were softer on the inside.

With a tapered silhouette and flattering fit, the Vuori Meta Jogger is an extremely stylish pair of travel pants. These pants have a particularly clean look to them, even with the drawstring waistband, which is impressive. We found them to be comfortable without looking unkempt, breathable, and light. Somehow, they managed to give off a stylish, dressy appearance without truly being dressy. A lot of this comes down to the cut, which is a bit more formal than your typical joggers.

The pockets are big and the rear pockets have zippers, which is great for travel. They’re made from high-quality fabric that is slick and light, and feel like a more fashionable choice than a typical pair of lounge pants. They don’t stretch or change in the wash, which speaks to their overall quality.

The Details: XS to XXL | 100 percent polyester

Icebreaker Merino Men's Shifter Jogger Lounge Pants

• Design 4 /5

They’re super lightweight, yet they keep your legs warm, even on windy days.

They run on the slimmer side, so those looking for something baggier will want to search elsewhere. 

A good pair of wool pants will automatically be some of the most comfortable in your closet — and the Icebreaker Merino Shifter Wool Jogger Lounge Pants are the wool pants you can wear almost anywhere. The slim fit adds a bit of style, while the adjustable waist and drawstring ensures they're the perfect fit. We loved that the lightweight merino wool was exceptionally soft and felt like it floating around our legs.

While the wool is on the thinner side, its high quality, so the pants hold up over time and after several trips through the washing machine. The material feels silky smooth and it's surprisingly durable. The two front pockets are deep and stitched all the way around, so they don’t flop about. Additionally, these pants are extremely versatile and can be worn in a variety of situations. 

The Details: S to XXL | 88 percent wool, 9 percent nylon, 3 percent elastane

Best for Hiking

Coalatree trailhead pant.

• Comfort 3.5 /5

The drawstrings on each pant cuff allow you to shorten them in warmer weather.

Sizing can be a bit tricky, so make sure to read the sizing guides before making your purchase.

If you can bring your travel pants into the great outdoors, that feature alone may be worth the purchase. And if we’re choosing any particular pair to take hiking, it’s going to be the Coalatree Trailhead Pant. They’re extremely versatile and even have drawstrings on the pant legs so you can shorten them if you’re getting warm during a long hike.

The pants are well structured, so we didn't have to worry about them stretching out after each wear or trip through the laundry. They’re comfortable, breathable, and the fabric is high-quality and soft on the inside. We also loved that the stretchiness is perfect for climbing over a log or squatting down to pick something up. The pants are durable and repel water making them as good for hikes as they are for yard work or trips around town.

The Details: XS to XXL

Other Men's Travel Pants We Liked

Several other pairs of men’s travel pants we tested didn’t quite make our list of the very best, but still deserve an honorable mention.

Outdoor Voices Men's Rectrek Pants : Extremely comfortable and made of high-quality material, these pants are great for sitting for extended periods of time. However, the rear and legs are tighter than suggested on the website.

DU/ER No Sweat Jogger : These stylish joggers are comfortable, stretchy, and made of quality material. However, when we stuck them in the washer, they shrank a bit.

Lolë Wander Pants: These pants are lightweight and super comfortable, making them a great pair for travel and casual errands. They’re well made and will maintain their shape through multiple wears. However, they got a bit sticky during sweaty workouts, so they’re not made for true athletic endeavors.

HOKA Clifton 8 Road-Running Shoes: Complete your 'fit with our favorite men's travel shoes . These are super supportive and feature plenty of cushioning to keep you comfortable on your feet whether you're training for a marathon or exploring a new city on foot.

Eddie Bauer Men's CirrusLite Down Jacket: This jacket is a great layer to keep you warm on a chilly evening and lightweight enough to not overheat you when temperatures rise. It also came out on top in our best men's packable jackets tests.

AO Long Sleeve Curve-Hem Tee: If you're looking for the best travel clothes for men, you can't go wrong with this classic and stylish long-sleeve tee. Just be sure to size-up for the perfect fit.

Our Testing Process

Over a period of five months, we tested 32 products for fit, comfort, quality, durability, design, and value. We examined the travel pants’ material and overall construction, taking note of how the fabric feels to the touch, whether it’s stretchy or not, and the quality and durability of the seams. To test comfort and flexibility, testers did three squats in the pants to see how they held up. 

Over a two-week period, testers wore the pants for at least six hours per day and during everyday activities, including working at the office, going out to dinner, running errands, and even exercising. After the first week of wear, they washed the pants according to the manufacturer’s instructions and checked how the pants changed afterward.

Tips for Buying Men's Travel Pants

Find the right balance between comfort and style.

Choosing a stylish pair of men’s travel pants doesn’t mean you should sacrifice comfort. One of the best and most important traits of these types of pants is how enjoyable they are to wear. Luckily, there are plenty of top brands making high-quality, stylish pairs. If you plan on wearing your pants everywhere, make sure they look and feel good.

Consider versatility

Some travel pants, such as men's sweatpants or joggers, are great for getting around town, running errands, and even for the gym or a run. However, that same pair might not be appropriate for the office or dinner in town. Before choosing a pair of travel pants that’s right for you, consider the various occasions where you’ll want to wear them and make sure the ones you choose line up with those goals.

Pay attention to the materials

When it comes to clothing, materials play a huge role in comfort and function. Whether it’s due to personal taste when it comes to fabric, or how you expect the clothing to hold up over time, the materials used to create the garment impact both how often you’ll be willing to wear it and how long it’ll last.

If your travel pants are stretchy, you should roll them rather than fold them so they won't wrinkle and you’ll save space. First, lay your pants on a flat surface, such as a bed or kitchen table. Next, fold them in half from the waist. Then, take one pant leg and fold it in a 90 degree angle outwards at the knee. Grab your pants at the waistline and roll downwards by the waistband. Once done rolling, pull the left out pant leg over the top of the roll, so that the rest of the pants are encapsulated inside. Make sure to button any buttons before rolling up your pants, too.

We always suggest following the care instructions on the tag when washing any pair of pants (or any other garment, really), to avoid damage or shrinkage. When in doubt, either hand wash or run it in the machine on a cold, gentle cycle and hang to dry, which should be safe for most clothing.

I've traveled to 9 out of 10 countries in Southeast Asia. Here are the 5 biggest mistakes I made along the way.

• I've traveled solo to nine countries in Southeast Asia.
• I've made many mistakes, from traveling during monsoon season to forgetting to bring enough cash.
• Travelers should make sure they plan ahead and research each country's culture.

Over the last two years, my journey as a travel enthusiast and Business Insider's travel reporter in Singapore has brought me to almost every country in Southeast Asia.

In total, there are 10 countries in Southeast Asia , and I've traveled to nine of them — Singapore, Philippines, Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia, Cambodia, Laos, and Brunei. Myanmar remains the only country in the region I have not visited, and while I am keen to explore it, I have held off on visiting because of the country's ongoing civil war.

I've watched the sun rise in Angkor Wat in Cambodia and cared for elephants in Chiang Mai, Thailand. I've explored the Bornean jungle in Brunei and crawled the Cu Chi Tunnels in southern Vietnam.

But it hasn't always been easy. I've made several mistakes traveling across the region , especially as a solo traveler. Here are five mistakes I made and how to avoid them.

1. Going during monsoon season and not planning for the weather.

In July, I traveled to Thailand on a reporting trip to cover the budding cannabis industry . There, I was met with heavy rain nearly every day. In Bangkok, I was staying in a hostel in Chakkrawat , a district with narrow, meandering streets, which made it difficult to walk anywhere in the pouring rain.

I didn't plan for the weather, so I didn't have an umbrella or poncho with me and had to rush to get one at the last minute. I also had a packed itinerary with a lot of travel between meetings, which was a hassle in the constant downpour.

Before traveling to Southeast Asia, make sure to avoid two seasons — the monsoon season, which often comes with strong typhoons in countries like the Philippines, and the burning season, where farmers burn land for fertile soil. This is a common occurrence in countries like Laos, Thailand, and the island of Borneo, which is shared between Brunei, Indonesia, and Malaysia.

When I traveled to Laos in April last year during the burning season , most of my plans — including a hot air balloon ride — were canceled because of the thick smog. I also didn't have an N95 mask with me, and I ended up with a sore throat.

If you do plan to come during these seasons, make sure to pack accordingly and plan a flexible schedule.

2. Traveling during Ramadan and expecting the same practices everywhere.

Having grown up in Singapore, I'm familiar with the practices during Ramadan , the holy month for Muslims, where they fast for most of the day. I studied Malay for seven years, and in school, I often fasted with my Muslim classmates and ate only in private.

Still, in many cities in Singapore, Malaysia, and Indonesia , non-Muslims are free to dine in public, so long as they do so respectfully. But on my trip to Brunei in April — at the height of the burning season and in the middle of Ramadan — there were more practices I needed to observe.

Most restaurants were closed, and diners weren't allowed to eat there even if they were open — only take-out was allowed. Eating in public was a major faux pas even for non-Muslims, and if you want to drink some water, you can only do so when nobody is around.

It wasn't easy, especially as Brunei was sweltering at 100 degrees Fahrenheit on some days. I made do by returning to the hotel for lunch and grabbing a big dinner with the locals at the night market after they had broken their fast.

3. Not packing enough modest outfits when visiting temples and mosques.

Southeast Asia is pretty liberal, and you can wear whatever you want in many places. In popular destinations like Phuket, Thailand, and Bali, Indonesia, lots of tourists walk around in bikini tops and shorts, and locals mostly tolerate it.

But there are certain places you do need to cover up, like places of worship, which include temples and mosques. When I visited Angkor Wat — the famed temple complex in Cambodia — in February last year, I found some tourists being told off by the local tour guides for wearing shorts and tank tops — "Tomb Raider" style.

I've learned to err on the right side of caution and bring a sarong wherever I go. It's an easy way to cover up and make an outfit more modest when you need to.

4. Forgetting to pack medication, especially when I plan to eat street food.

Southeast Asia has some of the world's most flavorful food. In every country, you can find food that is cheap and delicious, and that includes Singapore , the world's most expensive city. In countries like Malaysia and Vietnam, street food dishes can cost as little as a dollar.

I eat mostly street food when I travel in Southeast Asia, so medicine for tummy-related illnesses is a must. I've only gotten sick twice from eating street food — and it was the same dish both times— and unfortunately, those were the few times I didn't have medicine with me.

I'm a pretty adventurous eater. I've eaten everything from pufferfish stew to frog porridge and dishes made with intestines off the street. I've learned to wash the utensils provided before digging in and make sure the food is cooked to order and heated up before being served.

5. Relying on my card and not bringing enough cash with me.

In Singapore, I don't really use cash and often use Apple Pay, mobile payments, and cards. But I've found that many stores in other countries in Southeast Asia only accept cash.

For example, on my third trip to Vietnam, I spent an hour trying to make payment via bank transfer after the staff at a luxury perfume shop — which was selling items priced upwards of $200 — informed me at the last minute that they didn't accept card or contactless payment.

I've also found the majority of street vendors in the region only accept mobile payment — which is limited to local banks — or cash. I've learned to change a considerable amount of money before leaving the airport and keep whatever I didn't use for my next trip.
