Clothing
Whether you are traveling for work, an event, or leisure you want to pack according to the activities you have planned. Think about the season and use your travel destination as a guide for the attire. For any reason, you are traveling, my best advice is to have a formal outfit ready even if you are not expecting to dress up. On any occasion, it is always better to overdress than underdress.Lounge:
-
- sleepwear
- gym attire
- cozy outerwear
-
- comfortable tennis shoes
- your favorite jeans
- t-shirts
- button-up shirt
- dress pants
- belt
Toiletries
Hotels usually provide the basics such as body lotion, shampoo, and shower gels but you will need more than that to get by. To be more comfortable, you are going to want to pack all the items you use on a daily basis. Keep in mind if you are only taking carry-on luggage for a flight, take a look at TSA requirements to ensure you are following the guidelines.- toothbrush and toothpaste
- deodorant
- morning and night skincare
- sunscreen
- hair products
First Aid
When traveling to another country, it is always a good idea to have the basics on hand to be prepared for anything. You don’t know how accessible a convenient store will be or how your body will react to a foreign medication. Travel first aid items may seem like they are taking up space but once you need it, you will be glad you brought them with you.- contacts and solution
- Band-Aids
- Tweezers
- over the counter medicine to relieve pain, fever, common cold, etc.
- medicine for an upset stomach
