Edit as you go
Try to edit as many of your photos when on the road. Also do your writing drafts. You will do a better job because the actual scenes and backstories are fresher in your mind. Besides, you'll have less work ahead of you when you return home.
Passwords
When you are in a distant location, you can easily forget passwords that you have used daily for years in your home or office. This mind-blocking happens to the best of us. Discreetly write them down and keep them safely with you.
Backup
Bring along an ample supply of empty formatted disks and memory sticks to back up your edited photos and writing drafts. Do it regularly and store the media away from your computer. Remember, the odds of your laptop being lost, stolen or damaged increases when you travel.
Use familiar software
Don't try to work with a brand new edition of your favorite photo editing or website design software when you're traveling. Stick with the old edition until you are comfortable with the new one. Otherwise, you may be spending much of your travel time figuring out how to use it.
Use security software
You are more vulnerable on the road to virus, spyware, and other attacks when you go on the internet during your trips. Sniffer and other hostile programs lurk on some wireless networks and in public computers. Be certain your laptop is armed with top-notch security software. This includes having a rock-solid firewall.
