It’s 10pm but the alarm is going off. I’m headed home from work and will spend the rest of the night preparing for my last minute travel to Japan. I have a sachet of crisp Japanese Yen in my bag – but other than that I haven’t prepared much. When I arrive home I will be greeted by my newly-purchased backpack,\u00a0which is completely empty, laying on the bedroom floor.<\/p>\n

As I head home I try to focus on a mental list of key items that I must bring. Things like extra socks, toothpaste – since I booked a place off Air B&B, and swimming trunks. Although I\u00a0question how much swimming I will be doing in November.\u00a0I’m used to forgetting things during last minute travel – but leaving behind necessities like razors or phone chargers will add unnecessary\u00a0costs to your trip.<\/p>\n

Last minute travel, whether it’s international – or just out of town, can be a stressful experience. Below, I’ll share a checklist I made to help other spur-of-the-moment travelers keep it together and have a worry-free trip.<\/p>\n

Last-minute Travel Checklist<\/h2>\n

I’ll make this post short and to the point. These are the most important things that I came up with, if you thought of another point please let me know in the comments!<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Create a checklist of things to bring<\/strong><\/li>\n
  2. Always pack the most important items first – make sure the necessities are not forgotten in the rush<\/strong><\/li>\n
  3. Avoid the temptation to shove in as many clothes as your suitcase\/backpack can fit –\u00a0I would rather wash a couple shirts at the hotel or laundromat\u00a0than bring too many.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  4. Put travel documents and cash in your passport holder or carry-on baggage where they can be easily found (Passport\/Cash\/Credit Cards\/Car Rental Info)<\/strong><\/li>\n
  5. Remember to pack your chargers and plug adapters before you head to the airport<\/strong><\/li>\n
  6. Take a screenshot of your hotel booking info and address before you leave (you don’t want to get caught without wifi!)<\/strong><\/li>\n
  7. Make arrangements for a friend\/neighbor to take care of your pet while you’re gone – don’t put this one off for too long. Try to find a pet sitter as soon as possible!<\/strong><\/li>\n
  8. Write down a list of restaurants, landmarks, and attractions that you want to visit – write down the address and phone number just in case you need to ask someone for directions!<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n

    Is there anything you would add to this list?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
