Don’t Forget These 15 Things • Indie Traveller

Heading off on a big adventure? Then it pays to prepare properly!

Mind you, that doesn’t mean stuffing your luggage with a billion items you don’t need. Being overprepared is a thing.

Still, what years of traveling taught me is that there are some essential steps worth taking before every trip. 

Gearing up for a big trip?
I wrote an exhaustive guidebook to preparing for a backpacking trip, which covers the whole trip planning process from A to Z.

1. Remember the most important items

I’m sure you’ve got this covered already, but just to be sure…

Always pack these things:

  • Your passport (duh!)
  • Your bank- or credit cards
  • Your driving license, if you have one

When it comes to packing, most things are actually not worrying about too much. If you mess up and forget something, you can always buy it there.

But that’s not true for the items above. 

Your ability to pay for things or cross borders are paramount. Store your IDs and money securely! They are like your travel…
