1. Travel bag/backpack/suitcase: Let’s talk about backpack or suitcase first. The backpack must be comfortable to carry and suitable for your body shape. It’s best to have one that can be carried and carried on both sides and has multiple pockets to facilitate the sorting of items. When I travel independently, I usually carry a backpack. Recently, when I went to Europe, I used a suitcase with wheels, which worked very well. In Europe, the roads are flat and wide, there are also separate pedestrian paths, and the transportation facilities are convenient, so I have no problem carrying my luggage on and off the bus and walking in the city. It’s rare that I don’t have to carry a heavy backpack. There I saw many travelers with wheeled luggage like me, but surprisingly few backpackers.
2. Clothing (wearable): spare clothes, spare shoes (preferably flat shoes), tight pajamas, ties and scarves, hats, gloves, swimsuits, shorts, sanitary products, For mountainous areas, a slightly thicker jacket is required. Also bring tighter pajamas, sanitary napkins, less jewelry, less money (less cash, bring a credit card), some medicine (anti-insect, anti-itch and hemorrhage, eye drops, etc.), and bring enough Clothing, no matter what, bring a long-sleeved shirt in summer; although the clothes you bring depend on the climate of the destination and your travel plans, generally speaking, a lightweight raincoat is a must. This raincoat should have pockets, Has hood. If you want to bring a windproof coat, you should bring a loose windbreaker that can add a few clothes inside;
3. Toiletries: It is best not to use the toiletries in the hotel, it is not hygienic, so bring your own Towels, toothbrushes, cosmetics, sunscreen, sunglasses, accessories, toiletries, combs; it is best to use small packages of shampoo and body wash, as well as water stoppers. Travelers all know the important role of water stoppers. Without them, you How can you take a shower or wash clothes with standing water in the sink? Usually, the water stopper can be used in various sinks, and you should also bring a pack of washing powder. If your bag is big enough, it’s best to bring a pocket hair dryer (for drying hair and wet clothes that need to be dried urgently), which will be very useful.
4. Important documents – passport, visa, ID card and driver’s license, marriage certificate, letter of introduction. This needs no further explanation. The only thing I want to mention and have mentioned before is that it is best to include a few copies in case the original is lost.
5. Cash and credit cards - Some small bills and coins must be exchanged for small items or tips. If you stay in a hotel or dine at a high-end restaurant, of course you have to pay with a credit card. In short, bring less cash and less jewelry to avoid exposing your money;
6. Air tickets, train tickets, hotels, etc. have been booked Proof and receipt of transportation and accommodation.
7. A portable inflatable neck pillow or an inflatable lumbar pillow, which can be used when flying, taking trains and long-distance buses, and can well protect the cervical spine and waist;
8. Eye masks (optional cute cartoon eye masks), ear plugs – especially for those who have difficulty falling asleep, stay in multi-person rooms in youth hostels, or hotels near busy roads.
It can be used when resting on the way. If you are traveling in winter or a windy and sandy season, don’t forget to bring a mask;
9. Several storage bags, Including shoe bags, miscellaneous storage bags, card holders, etc.;
10. A toiletry bag is also essential, you can put toiletries inside, and prepare a toothbrush box to put your toothbrush in. Put it with toothpaste inside, which is both practical and hygienic;
11. A travel guide with complete information - just one! Carrying too many books can be heavy unless you are traveling to several different countries. There is also a travel schedule, address and telephone address book;
12. Medical kit/first aid kit/small medicine box and some medicines – as mentioned in the safety and health notes, such as painkillers, motion sickness medicine, Antidiarrheal medicine, cold medicine, tape, disinfectant, sunscreen, etc. Here I would like to add a little experience, that is, please bring a small piece of clean ginger. When you have acute enteritis and diarrhea and abdominal pain, take a small piece of ginger. It only takes a few minutes. Some are OK. This is a successful experience that I personally tried again in the suburbs a few days ago. It is better than berberine and saved a delicious meal. In fact, I hate eating ginger the most, but I would also strongly recommend that you and I bring it.
13. Travel and medical insurance policies and their hotline numbers. A copy is also required. Also include the address and phone number of the embassy of your nationality in your destination.
14. Detailed map of destination and transportation equipment map
15. Compass – This is very important. I have a map, but I can’t see the direction, so it’s still useless. Especially in relatively backward countries, many road signs are incomplete, unclear, or even wrong. Having a compass will definitely reduce the number of times you get lost.
16. Mobile phone/mobile phone – I think modern people have reached an era where they cannot live without mobile phones. I won’t mention it to everyone, I think everyone will still bring it. More importantly, it is also an effective channel to communicate with the outside world or family members. However, before going abroad, you should ask the mobile phone company whether the line is also available at your destination. Under normal circumstances, today's global communication mobile phones can fully guarantee global communication. If not, you can buy a short-term or "pay as you go" mobile phone card when you arrive at your destination.
(Most of today’s mobile phones are universal). When I go abroad, I usually buy a mobile phone card because it is cheaper and more cost-effective. Most importantly, remember to inform your family of your mobile phone number while abroad. Remember, keeping an effective channel for yourself to communicate with the outside world is the last magic weapon when you are in trouble. This is true even when traveling abroad. It is recommended not to use your mobile phone as a watch, because the most common thing to lose when traveling is your mobile phone. As long as you don't need to make calls, keep them in the safest place. Before going to bed at night, be sure to turn off your phone to save power. According to this method, a thick lithium battery can generally last a full four days of travel.
17. Watches and small alarm clocks – Although mobile phones have the functions of time and alarm clock. I usually still bring a watch and alarm clock. On the road, taking your phone in and out to check the time is a little conspicuous, which can easily attract the attention of thieves and can easily be lost. A watch is much more convenient on the wrist. When I go to bed at night, I don’t like to leave my phone on all night as an alarm clock. It’s troublesome to charge my phone frequently. Business Link and Wenquxing: Time is the key to ensuring a smooth trip. Business Link and Wenquxing not only have time and alarm clocks, but also have a lot of content that is helpful for travel.
18. Flashlight – Ed and I have a small light that we can wear on our heads. I don’t know what it’s called in Chinese, but in English it’s headband light. Very practical too. If you want a flashlight that is lightweight, waterproof, anti-squeeze, good at focusing light, and has durable beads, buy the best high-capacity battery (at least AA size). Never skimp on money and use old batteries.
19. A small amount of dry food - chocolate, biscuits, etc. Friends who have outdoor activities must understand the importance of dry food. Even if you are walking in the city, get lost or miss traffic, or get stuck in one place due to climate change, etc., some dry food in your bag can help relieve hunger and cold.
20. Universal adapter plug – The standards for plugs and sockets in each country are different. It is very annoying to bring necessary electrical appliances only to find that they cannot be used, and it is also troublesome to buy them when you are out of town. It is best to have a universal adapter plug.
21. (Universal) Charger – I will go crazy if I bring my camera, mobile phone, and MP3 Player, but find that I forgot to bring the charger! Ha ha! Therefore, be sure to bring various chargers. I heard that there is one on the market that is universal, so you don’t need to bring multiple different chargers, just one will do. I heard about it, but I haven't used it yet. Friends who are proficient in electrical appliances, what do you think?
22. A practical daily bag – one that can hold a water bottle, some dry food, a travel guide, a map, a small notebook, a pen, even an umbrella, a hat, sunscreen (if the sun is hot), and gloves Daily bags such as scarves (if the weather is cold).
23. Other gadgets: camera, film, Walkman, razor, calculator, battery, nail clipper, can opener, small electric cup, small clothes hanger, sewing kit, hair dryer, paper and pen , money belts and small locks - especially when traveling to countries with a lot of pickpockets or less safe countries.
Of course, there are tissues, don’t forget them;
24. Food: A few pieces of chocolate: Tourist areas are often unpredictable. Once they fall into a cold and humid situation, the mountain wind is strong, and they are hungry and cold, a few pieces of chocolate Chocolate is the backbone of persistence, I have experienced it myself. It's best to prepare a few more pieces of beef jerky, which can extend the time you resist hunger and boost your spirits.
If you are going on an outdoor adventure trip, you should also have a gas lighter (a windproof lighter is better), which can be used for lighting, heating, ignition, and outdoor cooking; use a knife more often for cutting. Used for sharpening; 5 to 10 meters of thin nylon rope, used for bundling items, drying clothes, camping, etc.; a small compass, used for losing direction in wild mountains and forests; a flashlight and a whistle, used for signaling in distress; a small bottle of potassium permanganate, It can be used for disinfection and as fuel for ignition; some cotton wool can be used for scrubbing and bandaging wounds, and can also be used as tinder; a silk scarf can be used to prevent wind and keep warm, and can be used to bandage wounds and serve as a tourniquet; a tin can with a lid One (the shape is not limited) can not only hold the above emergency items, but also be used as a drinking vessel for cooking, and its cover can also be used to reflect sunlight for signaling.
Holidays are the “golden period” for travel. Just when everyone is enjoying the fun time, some diseases will appear uninvited. Some people will suffer from so-called acclimatization symptoms such as loss of appetite, dizziness, listlessness, diarrhea and itchy skin due to changes in the geographical environment; others will suffer from the intrusion of wind and cold or improper diet.
