Packing For Business Or Family Trips

By Francis Mitchell


Going on holiday is one of life's stresses which most of us will encounter at least once a year. Getting everything ready to go can sometimes lead to items being left behind. Essentials similar to your swimming costume or high heel shoes and also all your hair products. Arriving at your hotel and unpacking only to find out you have forgotten half your holiday items is a real nuisance.

Most of your items can be purchased by doing a little research and finding the local chemist or superstore like your sun cream or favourite perfume or shampoo. What about the important business document which you have carefully crafted and revamped a thousand times. Take the pain out of packing by getting prepared for your next trip and not letting the unexpected from happening again.

A list sounds boring but is essential when going on holiday for personal or business reasons. Short trips don't require as much as a long 7 day or 14 days stay away from home. Why not create a list for all different scenarios for all different types of trips. Put the basic but essentials on all your lists such as toiletries , underwear , night wear and shoes. Then pack the clothes according to the what type of trip you are on.

Nearly everyone in Europe is now using cabin size cases which will cut down on the number of liquids which can be carried on board. Have you thought about purchasing small miniature size toiletries instead of travelling with the large bottles or shampoo or lotions or shaving foams. This will use about a third of your normal creams and potions. Leaving you more room in your case.

Not forgetting your passport or driving licenses. It always amazing the amount of travellers who forget their passport or turn up with an out of date passport. Also travellers who forget their licenses and are planning on renting a car. Why not keep all your travel documents safe in the one wallet so you don't need to search or forget them on your next trip.
