They all have these five or six things that can do or break the holidays – clutch items when you need quick support for your health, hygiene or just your comfort. Call one emergency trip, a basic trip kit or a day’s storage bag. Whatever the name, it contains significant useful items stored in a roller bag or checked luggage that ensures that holidays can come back along the way.
While vital travel needs, such as prescription drugs, go to backpacks, wallets or other personal items, a storage bag has the information you need for longer travel, in the hotel room or in renting, those household needs that you will not think about twice and you are not at home.
Jennifer Monna, a former stewardess and current diplomat in Washington, said she always packages her favorite drinks.
“I am packing these Decaf coffee packages, since the decaf is difficult to find in other countries and you can’t expect that your host will provide you with Decaf,” he said. It also recommends taking a multi -type power adapter, which does not take up much space.
What is in the day’s storage bag? Below are some of the staples that can make your next trip much more comfortable.
Eye mask and ear plugs: Their packaging in your storage bag gives you a second chance not to forget them-and to sleep. Even if you do not use eye mask or plugs at home, it is best not to lose sleep over a curtain -free window or an irregular bar next to.
Urgent Medicine: The story of everyone’s health is different, but for most, some drugs come into practical during a holiday sting. This may include key elements such as Tylenol, Aspirin, Melatonin or Vitamin C. A more personalized stash can include thermometer, COVID-19 test, re-exhaustion tablets, miralax, gas-x, ear drops or eye allergies, insecticides everybody.
Some people think they bring common antibiotics, but doctors may not want to prescribe medicines before you get sick. What is crucial is to reintroduce your medical commission before and after each trip and throw anything that has expired or degraded in any way (imagine your bag sitting on a hot asphalt).
Electronics accessories: Consider a universal adapter that operates all over the world so you can charge in China and dry in Brazil. An additional cable for mobile phones, USB devices and laptops is also a good call. (But remember, a battery or electricity bank can only go to transmission rules per safety management.)
Personal Security: You can sleep better at night with a door stop alarm, a small wedge that emits a big sound when someone opens your door. Similarly, Birdie Personal Tarmer can be attached to your wallet or backpack and put a strong beep when you pull it – great for jogs to unknown destinations. And even though you can’t bring pepper or MACE spray to your transport, some airlines and destinations allow it to your tested bag; Check the rules before packaging.
Luggage Scale: Did he pull some Malbec bottles in Argentina? Got Marrakech Medina? It is not so uncommon to find that a controlled suitcase may be heavier on the foot of a trip. But depending on the airline, the cost of an overweight bag can lead to a depressive scene on the airport check-in. Before heading to the airport, hit your reliable luggage scale or consider imprinting a folding bag and can unfold to pack the add -ons you may lift.
An additional set of underwear: Self -evident.
Bathroom products that will soothe your body or mind: Did you forget to pack your toothpaste for a business trip, the balm for your lips for a skiing vacation or your favorite face cream for any escape? Make your travel life easier by storing a backup of your favorite, more essential cosmetics in your controlled case.
Simple treasures: A clothespin. A hair zone. Games. A pen. There are some random household items that can solve an annoying problem when you are on the road. Also consider: laundry detergents, pocket umbrella and sewing kit.
“I always bring with me the detergent sheets,” said Kate McCulley, a Prague -based travel content creator. “Too many times we had to go out and buy it on my own.”
