Where to Keep What
The list above includes all the things that one might need on their travels. So, now the next step is to pack the things in their place, But what goes where?
The answer is simple: Where they fit.
Travelling big or small, there are things that are necessary, and one can not do without them. But, also while travelling, one does not want to worry about the weight of their bag. So to pack with strategy is necessary.
It is best to carry more than one bag to distribute the weight of your essentials, and if the unfortunate happens, you have your things divided.
In your luggage keep all your clothes, shoes, and big accessories like cameras and hats. In your carry-on bag keep all the things that might be of frequent use, like your documents cash, face wash, documents, and devices.
Lip balm, eye masks, and face make are a part of the carry-on.
People often worry about where the medicine should be kept. Medicine is part of carrying on if security allows. If you are travelling by train or flight, then they belong in the luggage, but if your trip is on roads not taken, medicines might come in handy without pulling all your luggage apart.
This list can be used by one and all. Cross all things when they are packed, and you are sure not to miss anything.
Happy Travels.
