Every time I travel I feel like I have forgotten to pack something, but cannot remember what it is. So, I finally decided to create a list of the most important items to always pack for a trip and I would like to share that with you all today.
1. Hanging Toiletry Bag: This is very convenient so you do not have to carry tons of products in your hands every time you get ready during your trip.
2. Makeup Bag: Keep your makeup organized with this bag.
3. Jewelry Case: Keep you jewelry tangle free, organized and safe at all times with this travel case.
4. Packing Cubes: These are great for keeping your suitcase organized. It can get messy during your trip, and will especially be helpful when packing to go back home.
5. Passport Case: Keep all those important travel documents and ID's safe and protected in the same spot.
6. Shoe Bags: Avoid your shoes from ruining your outfits by separating them into their own bags.
7. Comfortable Clothing: Dress for the flight, not the destination because you can always change once you have arrived there.
8. Jacket/Scarf: Flights can get chilly, so if you are prone to getting cold, bring a light jacket or scarf to keep you warm.
9. Neck Pillow: For long flights or overnight ones, your neck will thank you for this.
10. Lip Balm: Flying dries out your skin so always keep lip balm with you to keep your lips hydrated.
11. Moisturizer: Always moisturize your skin well before going on a flight for the same reason as above.
13. Wipes: Always wipe down the surfaces surrounding you once you arrive at your seat!
14. AirPods/Earphones: Corded earphones are necessary if your flight has a tv with content you are interesting in watching. AirPods are good for that content in your phone or tablet that you want to enjoy during the flight.
15. Cord Case: Keep all your chargers and electronics in one place for easy access, to avoid tangling, and to not lose any
16. Tablet: If you would like to watch or listen to something specific, load your tablet or phone with all the apps and content you are interested in enjoying.
17. Portable Charger: Pack a charged portable charger in the cord case as well, so you always have power for your electronics and entertainment
18. E-reader: There's no secret I love my Kindle, so if you enjoy reading load it with some great books and enjoy during the flight.
19. Snacks: Airlines usually offer snacks and drinks, but if you have a favorite snack remember to bring it with you.
20. Water Bottle: Pack an empty water bottle in your personal item bag. Once you have passed the security checkpoint you can fill it up at the airport water fountains.
21. Camera: Your phone camera will do, but if you would like to get some great content for your Instagram, or to cherish the moments forever, an instant camera or a DSLR are great to bring on a trip
22. Journal: I enjoy keeping a travel journal and reading them back after a while. You would be surprised to see how much of the trip you forgot or have no photos of.
I hope this guides you as you are packing for your trip so you don't forget anything important! Safe travels!
