My Travel Checklist: Travel Gear

I began compiling a checklist of things to bring ever since I began my travels abroad and here in my country.

* Backpack/Tote Bag (extra foldable bag)
Maps
Guidebooks/Travelbooks
Printouts of googled blogs related to area (if pc is not brought along)
Phrasebook/Dictionary (for travel abroad)
Calculator
* Notepad/Notebook
* Ballpen
Journal/Diary
Books/Manga
Earplugs
Blinders
Travel Pillow
Travel Blanket
* Small foldable umbrella
Sunglasses
* Water bottle
* Wristwatch (preferably luminous dial)
* Flashlight (a mini-maglite is always tied to my keys)
Extra batteries
* Resealable plastic bags

* these are the ones I always bring with me, regardless of the kind of trip I have

    well, now that you mention it..yeah, I was in elementary :-)

    hehe..I don't bring all of those I listed.

    In fact, my manager before and other friends I visited during my trips were actually impressed with my packing skills...I had only one bag (good for 7 days) for my 2 week trip to Japan. That excludes of course my knapsack containing my laptop and other electronic stuff...

    Pareho tayo. I always try to take just one suitcase and a hand carry + my laptop. If and whenever I am going on a vacation with golf, then the second luggage is my golf bag. Siempre, the less baggage the easier it is to move around.
