Hotel Fan in Eyes Travel Tip
Hotel Fan in Eyes Travel Tip
I have a couple of photos to explain how a fan can blow in your eyes for 8 hours of sleep, or lying around in bed watching television in the Hotel. Next thing you know, your eyes are hurting, dry, in pain, and you have to know the cause, it is the fan.

This is the bed, the fan is a swing fan, IF the fan was mounted on the wall behind the head of the bed, and the fan would blow on my feet or lower body. However, because mounted on the side, it points directly at my face. Well, when I am really hot, an instant sense of relief, but over eight hours of sleep, I am in pain, my eyes dry out, and I start to have some misery. Watching television in the room becomes a pain.
I have tied up the fan so it point more at my feet, short of remounting on the wall, it is still not good. Truly, hotels do not think about all the needs of people, that is why you like your five star hotels for about 10 times the prices. I just choose rooms well and it solves some of these problems, but not always.
Second part of this solution to dry eyes was for me to buy some goggles that look like eyeglasses, inside these glasses are clear lens, big, wide, fat lens, I can see easy, but covers my eyes.
In the end, this room has some problems. A floor fan is usually the best, because when really hot, I can point at my face and head to cool off fast, and then point at my lower body to sleep.
The overhead fan is usually a need for goggle fan, you know, the center of the room, above you head shown in all the tropical movies type.

why not move the bed 90degrees so that your head is under the fan?
The picture must not show, but the width of room is not wide enough to move the bed.
However, not the point, the point is to try to choose rooms where you can, or realize you must stop the fan, move the fan, move rooms, or protect your eyes.
The awareness the fan is the problem is the solution, not all the various ways, these are easy to figure out once the problem is obvious.
Just put the pillows at the other end of the bed and let the fan blow on your feet.
There is a difference between being a two week tourist and living in Hotels.
