When you’re packing it’s important to tailor what you bring specifically to the destination and activities that you are going to be enjoying during your hard-earned time off. However, there are some things you’ll just have to have in your holdalls. Here are the things you absolutely have to have with you:
A Good Digital Camera: You’re going to want to record your trip, whether it’s fantastic views, or splashing about on the beach. Make sure you bring a quality camera with plenty of memory cards and batteries.
Good Sunscreen: The odds are that wherever you go you’re going to be looking for some sun. Even a skiing holiday can see you facing danger of sunburn. Buy a good sun cream, being careful to read the information on the bottle before you buy.
DEET Mosquito Repellents: Mosquitoes seem to be getting everywhere these days, and nothing will ruin your holiday quicker than some itchy bites in places that you don’t want to be itching.
A Decent Hat: If you’re going out to the Highlands or off skiing, you want to keep your head warm. If it’s sunny, a hat can provide you with some much needed shade. But more than that, in modern society we just don’t get enough opportunities to wear decent hats. I want to wear a fedora without looking like a hipster.
Reading Material: Because sometimes you are just going to be bored. We spend so much of our lives worrying about deadlines, chores, and things that need doing right now that you might find yourself pretty lost if you, for even a moment, don’t have something to do. Bring some decent books to read, or you’ll lose the whole holiday to checking Twitter on your phone.
First Aid Kit: Just in case it all goes horribly wrong, having a healthy selection of bandages, plasters, painkillers and antihistamines will help smooth over the worst of it.
Pack a bag with all of these elements and you’ll be fixed for a great holiday getaway, whether it’s a long weekend or a trip of a couple of weeks.
