  • Luggage And Bags: Always pack a fold-up bag in your suitcase that you can use for purchases when your suitcase get over filled. Also try and take expandable suitcase

    Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: 1. Decide what you will wear to travel in.
    2. 1 long skirt of scrunchy, naturally wrinkly fabric OR one simple long dress

    4. 1-2 pairs shorts or ¾ pants
    5. 1 long-sleeved blouse
    6. 4 light tops
    7. 1 - 2 bathing suits. Take two if you know you will be changing locations a lot; depending on the heat and humidity, they may not dry overnight (ditto underwear).

    10. 2 pair’s shoes - 1 pair good walking shoes, already broken in, and one "nice" (but still very comfortable and well-soled!) pair for enjoying the nightlife. Tuck socks into the shoes to save space.

    12. 1 big scarf or square, tie-able sarong - suitable as emergency skirt for monastery and church sightseeing.

    Toiletries & Medical Supplies: 14. Small-size toiletries and makeup (often, lodgings don't provide things like shampoo) –
    15. necessary medications in original bottles, tampons, toilet paper, Imodium tablets, sun-block, plasters, sun glasses, sun hat, sun tan lotion mosquito repellent, multi-purpose anti-biotic

    Photo Equipment: 13. Camera, extra rolls of film, batteries, chargers etc.
