			<h2>Preparation & Essentials</h2>		
		<p>Taking an extended trip outside of the country takes a lot of preparation and organization. With the added complication of COVID regulations and testing requirements, it can all seem overwhelming.</p>
<p>Be prepared before you go with thorough, up-to-date research. Find out what the current requirements are for entering the US and returning to Canada, know how long you can stay down south, what you’re allowed to bring across the border, and what documents you will need. </p>

			<h2>Prepare your RV</h2>		
		<p>When traveling during the off-season, we always recommend you travel with your RV Winterized. Even if you’re leaving in the early fall, traveling with your RV winterized will prevent any freezing on the road from unexpected temperature drops before you reach your warm destination. </p>

			<h2>Plan for home maintenance and security​</h2>		
		<p>When you’re leaving home for an extended trip, consider a house sitter or a friend or neighbour that will check in periodically. If you have a yard to take care of, arrange for someone to provide occasional maintenance. A home security system that allows you to check in remotely also provides peace of mind. For longer trips, if you don’t have someone collecting your mail for you, use Canada Post’s Hold Mail service to temporarily stop mail delivery while you’re away.</p>
