The excitement of getting away is so much fun that some time we forget about the most important things due to the excitement of a getaway. However, in all the excitement we can forget to pack our holiday essentials.
So the question is what are the things we just can’t travel without? Well, here’s a list of the top ten items according to the internet’s travelling community…
1. Mobile Phone
Whether it’s to keep in touch or just for emergencies, it’s good to keep it with in close range.
2. A Camera
To record and also capture those memories forever – don’t forget your battery charger and a spare memory card!
3. Music
The perfect soundtrack to our travels – most of us just can’t travel without an i-pod or MP3 player but be sure to have charged it!
4. A Good Book
While away boring delays at airports, or escape in the sunshine on a golden beach – a good read is the perfect way to relax so don’t forget to carry a novel being romantic, historical or even an inspirational book.
5. Cash
Just to be on the safe side especially when you admire an African craft piece. But put in mind the money has to be in local currency, so there’s no urgency to find a cash point or change over travellers’ cheques.
6. Travel Guide
Whether it’s back packing, an exploring city break or a far off adventure most travellers can’t leave home without the ultimate guide book. Get to know the local culture, places to go, things to see or just where’s good to eat and drink. In this case a tour operator provides are detailed itinerary consisting of the activities and the places to visit.
7. Travel Plug
For everything! Battery chargers, phone chargers etc
8. First Aid Kit
For any minor scrape, blister or worse.
9. A Pen
Keep in touch the old fashioned way by noting down things that you might forget.
