8. Razor is a must
If you are going to travel for a long time, it is essential to keep a razor with you. Remember to carry the refills. After all, you cannot afford that extra hair.
9. Earplugs or book
There is a strong connection between travelling and songs. Remember to carry earphones because some introverts dislike sharing their playlist. You can also bring a book along. It will make your travel soothing.
10. Sanitiser
In case you want to pick your favourite dish in between. So, carry a sanitiser.
11. Raincoat and Waterproof camera bag
The weather can be unpredictable sometimes, so invest in a raincoat and a waterproof camera bag for your camera to make the most out of the rainy days. The last thing you want on a trip is to damage your equipment.
12. Torch
From camping to late-night treks into the forest, a torch will help you take the new roads. Keep a torch handy, and it only takes a little space too.
13. Notebook
While trekking or camping, you won’t have power plugs or a power supply. Thus keep a notebook handy to note down any experience or information that might help later. Jot down your experiences to share them later.
14. Flip Flops & Shoes
They are the most comfortable footwear to travel across beaches, markets etc. Whether it is a walk to the beach or a trek into the greens, these flip-flops will be your best friend to commute. If you are trekking on mountains, then you must keep trekking shoes to have a good grip while walking above cliffs.
15. Inflatable pillows
Travelling anywhere in the world may involve long road drives or a night in the camp. Whatever the situation, these inflatable pillows will be your sleep’s best companion. You can fit them in your bag’s side pocket as they are very compact and take up much less space.
Plan your itinerary and start packing for an adventurous trip. Backpackers often hit the road, and most of the time, it is unplanned. Thus, remember to keep these things handy religiously for a comfortable journey.
