TRAVEL PACKING ESSENTIALS

· First-aid kit, medicine and vitamins, extra prescriptions, earplugs, spot remover, a small flashlight and a sewing kit are essential to remember.
· Bring extra eyeglasses and/or contact lenses.
· Don’t forget your sunglasses and sunscreen. Since you will be spending most of your time outdoors, you will be exposed to dangerous sunlight no matter what season of the year you are travelling.
· Put a small notepad and a pen in your purse or carryon bag.
· It is essential to bring a sweater, a jacket and a compact umbrella to adapt to the unexpected changes in weather.
· Shoes are also very important. Bring an extra pair of shoes. In addition, a pair of slippers, sandals or flip-flops will be very comfortable during the flight and in the hotel room.
· Bring two pairs of pants. Avoid jeans as they can be too hot and heavy for summer time travelling. Prefer light-weight cotton or linen. In addition, pants with many pockets are the most convenient.
· Depending on the season, bring up to five short/long-sleeved shirts.
· A pair of shorts would be sufficient for extreme weather conditions in summer. Also, it can be used as a swimsuit for men.
· Don’t forget to bring a tie or scarf as they would bring respectability especially to your evening dressing.
· A digital camera with a minimum 2GB memory card would be sufficient.
· You can purchase adapters or electrical plugs from RadioShack or similar stores.
