There are some really important things to think about if you are planning a trip soon.
This summer, lots of people are traveling to all sorts of places. It’s always super exciting when you have a trip planned, and the only thing that can be a little frustrating is trying to remember to pack everything.
There are two types of people who pack: those who pack early and those who wait until the last minute. I can be either of those, depending on what my week looks like and how long I’m going to be traveling for. Regardless of when you pack, there are some super important items you don’t want to forget, and if you do, it could negatively impact your trip.
What things should you never forget when traveling?
- Driver’s license (a friend of mine forgot it and missed her flight, which delayed our Disney trip… I still haven’t forgiven her for that)
- Debit card (It’s never fun having to rely on others financially)
- Health insurance card (God forbid you get sick and need it)
- Contact lenses or glasses (not being able to see where you are can ruin a trip)
- Medications (these can be vital to your health and it can be annoying if you don’t have any)
- Chargers (They are usually more expensive everywhere and you don’t want to miss that perfect Instagram picture)

I usually make a list and literally cross everything off as I pack it in my suitcase. As I said, always triple check that you have everything before you travel and always wish you a safe trip.
