Packing & preparation

Carry less.
Arrive ready.

Packing is not about anticipating everything. It is about bringing what supports your journey — and leaving behind what only adds weight.

01

Pack for your real itinerary

Check the forecast and the activities you actually plan to do. Choose layers that work together, comfortable shoes you have already worn, and clothes that can be washed easily. Lay everything out, then remove duplicates. Check baggage size and weight with your carrier before you leave.

02

Keep essentials close

Carry travel documents, necessary medication in its original packaging, valuables, and a basic change of clothes in your personal bag. Research restrictions for prescriptions and liquids. Keep sensitive documents securely stored and accessible offline. Do not rely on a single phone or a single payment method for every essential.

03

Prepare beyond the suitcase

Download offline maps, check your roaming plan, and charge your devices. Note your accommodation address and arrival instructions. Arrange the first transfer when arriving late or in an unfamiliar place. Tell a trusted person your broad route, and check your home is secure before departure.
