Generally,it is a very good habit to be prepared for a journey. i take a lot of items with me while travelling to some other place. Sometimes we forget some important items like gifts, personal items. It is always good to prepare a list of items which you carry with you. If I have travel unexpectedly I take my emergency kit with me. What do you do if you take a journey?

Yes, I always write a list of all the things that I should bring to my trip. I am forgetful sometimes, so I really need to do a list about it. I always list the personal things like beauty products that I need to bring, and also the different kinds of clothes that I will be using during the whole journey.

I travel quite often, on my business trips, within the country and also overseas. I have to make sure that I do not forget to take along the necessities, and the list of things I have to do on the trips, especially those related to the business matters.

I always write a list of things to take with me on a trip. If I am staying overnight I need more contact lenses. My disabled son on a trip always requires enough catheters. I like to take some vegan snacks with me on a trip toe enjoy. Sometimes when flying I pack a 2 liter bottle of water to drink in my checked luggage. Then I have that on arrival in the country that I visit. It is a very good idea that you take your emergency kit with you on every trip. If I write my list two weeks before my departure I still have time for any last minute purchases.

I printed a list off the internet once of all of the things that were important for you to take with you if you were going on a journey. This was brilliant for me, as it meant that I didn't have to make the list myself and was therefore able to spend more time looking forward to the holiday rather than worrying about the things that I may or may not have remembered to pack. There is nothing worse than reaching your destination and realising that you've forgotten to pack something important, especially if you're in a foreign country and you don't know where to go to get the things that you need.

Before I leave I make a list. Mostly with things I need for me (meds for example in case of need) and things my kids may need. If I take stuff for other people with me I make a list about that too. These lists are there to remind me what to take with me on my journey. I seldom have a list with me in my bag or suitcase with all the things I carry around with me. I prefer to travel light since in most places you are able to buy everything you need.

What i did was to email myself important information such as medicines that my wife and I take, a copy of my drivers license and passport.

I start drawing up a check list the day I decide to go on a holiday as the entire process starts from day one without which I cannot remember everything that needs to be done. For a perfect holiday one requires perfect planning.

I have a travel list. I write everything I want to remember to pack. Before the trip I review it to see what I need. I have winter and summer items on this master list so I always am ready to take off if the opportunity arises.. I started this after taking a couple of trips where I forgot some things I couldn't easily purchase.
