Travel is the fire that ignites the soul. When travelling, we tend to get overexcited and end up forgetting to carry all the essentials. Bookmark this article because you will definitely be referring to it for your next trip. Here are a few necessary essentials when travelling:
- Travel documentation. This includes your passport, tickets, border passes etc. I would also recommend you carry photocopies of your passport and national ID because these may prove very useful in case you lose your passport or any other document.
- Gadgets: Cameras, phones, power banks, portable chargers and USB cables-Because you never know when the scenery will get too good to deserve a shot.😉
- A dope playlist. Just like Elliphant sang “MUSIC IS LIFE” and what better way to get rid of boredom or start a conversation other than turning up the volume.
- Toiletries and by that I mean wet wipes, sanitizer, toilet paper (because when you gotta go, you gotta), hand lotions, makeup, tampons, soap, toothpaste, bathroom flippers, etc. List is endless.
- A medicine kit. This is especially important if you get travel probably because of turbulence or car fumes.
- Comfortable clothing. For me this is important because the weather these days is just unpredictable and well, comfort is key. Pop in a travel pillow for extra comfort.
- A good book if you are a reader. Books are a great way to nourish the mind. For an easy read, I would recommend The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. You can thank me later.
- Snacks like nuts, chocolate, lollies, gum and gummy bears make an excellent treat.
So the next time you are travelling, try making sure everything on this list is in check and LET THE GOOD TIMES ROLL!!!!
This is an eye opening, great read and very insightful.
