What you never think of (or want to do)... arranging when you go traveling?

It sounds strange but the older and wiser, actually more experienced, you get... The more and better I understand the need to make a testament or a will. Any time, even when you are young and also when you just go camping in Europe. Bring or arrange your (travel)will before you go traveling.

Is it not a satisfying idea that the people you leave behind are aware of your wishes and ideas? You actually hope people are, but you are never sure. I have made a file with what to arrange and who to give what. And my file keeps on changing and changing. The more concrete and detailed information you have, the better. I thought you were obligated in the Netherlands to have a coffin, when you are cremated. That is not true, you have to do some research, and coffins of paper or karton are an option nowadays. Just changed it in my last wishes document. 

One of my friends has access to all my paswords, some of my other friends are into events and offered their help with a small ceremony, another friend is a nurse and she will put cloth around my body, when allowed no coffin or whatsoever needed. 

I made a list with numbers people can play. Actually personally I don't want a ceremony, but when the people who are left behind want to, it is all okay. Will have to allocate a budget for it. Not too much preparation needed, since I have done it all. Organised some photos to show and in my phone you can find a thumb up, behind the contact information, those people can be informed when I am dead, the rest... isn't needed.

Some furniture that are antique are allocated to certain people and some of my jewellery as well. It is not a favourable topic to arrange, but it gives peace and rest, when you think about it. So make your (travel) will! Today is always a good idea, do not procrastinate...
