Preparation stage

Pack for this trip, not for a generic holiday.

Use forecast range, activities, laundry access, luggage limits, health needs and local power sockets to decide what belongs in the bag.

Five useful passes

  1. Documents, medication and essential accessibility items.
  2. Clothing layers matched to likely weather and activities.
  3. Power, charging and connectivity.
  4. Toiletries and destination-specific health protection.
  5. Remove duplicates and verify airline baggage limits.
