When we plan a trip and make a list of things that we will need there, we are too cautious and add to the luggage things that are often not needed on trips. They take up extra space and create extra weight, overloading the traveler and not letting him take really useful things that can be useful at any time.
Stuffed cosmetic bag for daily use
Before traveling to other cities or countries, you should carefully check which items are in the handbag from care and decorative cosmetics. It is necessary to get (and leave!) from the cosmetic bag products that will definitely not be needed on the trip, but will have weight. Experienced travel girls recommend taking with them a makeup base, foundation, lipstick and eyeshadow - no more. If you have a travel palette, it is recommended to take it with you.
Uncomfortable and impractical shoes
One of the most unpleasant incidents in the journey can be a situation where a tourist rubs corns during long walks. Improperly selected shoes can cause disappointment in the trip or at least a spoiled impression of it. You need to conscientiously approach the choice of comfortable shoes and never take with you those sneakers, shoes or sandals that have not yet been worn. New shoes that have not been tested and not worn can be uncomfortable for long walks, rubbing your feet to calluses or blood. Even if there is a spare comfortable pair, the affected legs will make themselves felt regularly.
Shoes with high heels or a platform should also be left at home to avoid traumatic situations. The best solution for traveling with walks and excursions will be a pair of sneakers or boots. If a solemn event is planned on vacation, when choosing stylish shoes, one should not forget how comfortable it will be.
Several pairs of trousers or jeans
Jeans are one of the most comfortable and simple types of outerwear, which is suitable for any task. The fabric of jeans is durable, unmarked, hides stains and is universal. However, they take up a lot of space in the luggage, even if you try to fold them compactly! Travelers recommend taking no more than one or two pairs of jeans with them on a trip, depending on the duration of the trip. The rest of the trousers should be taken from a light and comfortable material, for example, from cotton.
Towels, duvet covers and sheets
If the traveler rented an apartment, a hotel room or a house in the place where his vacation is planned, the staff or owners will definitely give out as many sets of bed linen and towels as there will be guests in the rented housing. The service and service sector in all tourist countries are developed to the proper level, and the hotel staff cannot but provide clean linen.
If the traveler upon arrival did not find the necessary items for life, he should immediately contact the reception or the owner of the apartment, since the guests have the right to ask for bed linen - or demand money back.
Hair dryers, hair dryers and other hair care products
Electronics such as hair dryers, hair irons or clothes are things that take up a lot of space and weight. They will not be useful in any trip where a traveler or a traveler will stay in hotels or rented apartments. Even in guest houses of the budget segment, there will certainly be a hair dryer and other equipment that will be useful for a comfortable life.
Before going on a trip, you need to familiarize yourself with the list of additional household appliances that are in the room or apartment, so as not to take an iron or a curling iron with you. Shampoos, soaps and toothpastes are also available in most hotels. If the traveler needs special hygiene products, he is recommended to place them in compact jars so as not to carry large packages.
Cotton pads and sticks
Many hotels and inns take care of their guests and offer free hygiene items that will come in handy on every trip. Among the disposable toothbrushes, shampoos and soaps there are also cotton pads with sticks. All personal hygiene items take up enough space in the suitcase. In hotels of the middle and high price segment, guests in the room can also expect shower gels, before and after shaving, mouthwash, feminine hygiene products and sewing kits. Some things are immediately in the bathroom, others should be asked from the staff, and he will provide the guest with the necessary items for free.
Logs
To save enough space and not to carry too heavy a suitcase, the traveler should get rid of magazines and paper books in the luggage and use a tablet, phone or e-book, where you can download the desired literature through special applications. One compact screen can store thousands of pages of books and magazines, which in a physical medium would weigh more than one kilogram.
Replacement Laptop
If the traveler goes not on a working trip, but on vacation for 1-2 weeks, he will most likely be able to do only a smartphone or tablet to watch movies on the go. Laptops weigh a lot and take up space, so for a non-working trip, this option will not be optimal.
If a traveler takes more than two devices on the road, he risks spending a hectic vacation, often distracted from landscapes or excursions to equipment. Excess equipment can also lead to the fact that there is not enough time for the laptop or tablet taken, and the traveler will carry it in vain, taking their place and loading the luggage.
Expensive jewelry and accessories
On a trip, you should not take all the most beautiful and expensive accessories in the wardrobe. Watches, earrings, rings, an expensive handbag are things that can be lost. Moreover, in other cities and countries, the crime rate can be high, so a traveler with expensive things in plain sight risks becoming a victim of robbers or pickpockets. Of course, you can lose the ring or give it to a robber in your city, but in another country there is much less chance of returning the loss back.
Lots of clothes for every day of the trip
If the traveler decided to go in search of new impressions for 1-2 weeks, he does not have to take a lot of images and outfits with him. If he picks up a few sweaters, pants, hats, pants and shirts, the suitcase or backpack will quickly fill up so that there is no room for important things (and new purchases!).
Too rich a wardrobe on a trip can lead to the fact that a tourist will not wear a lot of things even once. Travelers for medium trips take with them 2-3 tops and 2 bottoms, which can be successfully combined with each other, getting stylish outfits for every day. While the clothes are not in use, they can be washed on the road so that they are ready to be worn the next day.
