Packing Lists: My Top What to Take Tips
  • Tip Rating:
  • Luggage And Bags: Small enough to pick up and carry yourself.
    Big enough to carry the warm coat you wore to a hot place!
    And big enough to hold any souvenirs, see 'Clothing' tip which will create space!

    Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Take all your oldest things, wear them and chuck them. I even save old underwear for this purpose, and tee shirts.

    When all the old stuff is gone wash and re-wear. Take some liquid detergent and wash smalls etc. After rinsing lie them on an hotel towel, roll up the towel and twist it hard. Most of the water will come out and you can leave to dry in an appropriate place.

    In the British Isles always be prepared for rain and take plastics bags so you can move on with wet stuff.

    Toiletries & Medical Supplies: A universal bath plug. Essential.



    Miscellaneous: Always , always have a photocopy passport. Preferably copy credit/debit cards as well and keep very safe, away from originals.

    A door wedge on the inside will keep you secure if you are doubtful about your lock. Sleep tight!
