best travel accessories

When you go on a trip, you have to take with you a littleequipment and materials. But it’s not necessarily easy to know what to put in your backpack or suitcase. There are so many criteria to take into account that preparation can quickly become an endless headache. Between lightness and practicality, essential and indispensable or just in case, there is something to think about.

This page is therefore made to help you. So here, I will list several articles and pages, to help you choose the best travel accessories, but above all explain why and how they are useful when traveling etc. I will divide them by categories and subcategories.

First of all, you need luggage!

Because before talking about travel accessories, I have to talk to you about luggage. Because obviously, to take your material and equipment, you will need a suitcase, a backpack, or other luggage. And depending on how you travel, for how long, and other things you will not have the same needs. And I’m going to section this into three categories.

Checked baggage

Before leaving to travel, you will therefore put your main baggage in the hold. The one used above all to transport all the travel essentials in general.

Cabin baggage

Because if you’re only going for a few days you won’t necessarily need checked luggage, and you can simply take a small piece of luggage with you.

Baggage for the day

But, you will also need a small piece of luggage, which you will use all day, but also on the plane or on public transport for example. It will allow you to always have with you the essentials such as papers for example. But we also find

A few tips !

Choose your accessories wisely for a better trip!

Let’s start by looking at the essential accessories, depending on who you are, who you’re going with, where, when and how!

1 – Choose according to the type and mode of travel!

Depending on how you travel, you will need more or less things, but especially not necessarily the same travel accessories. If you travel in all-inclusive mode, it will be very different from if you travel in roots and camping mode. You will therefore have to make your choice:

2 – Choose according to the duration of the trip!

The duration of the trip also matters greatly. We will not have the same needs if we go for 3 days in the city as if we go for 15 in the wilderness. In the same way, the necessary equipment will clearly not be the same if you leave for 3 weeks as if you leave for a world tour, here again you will have to do it accordingly:

3 – Choose according to the people you are traveling with!

Going on a family trip will not require the same things as if you are traveling with a baby, a disabled person or even a senior. You will need to adapt the contents of your luggage depending on the person(s) you are traveling with.

4 – Choose based on who you are!

Of course your equipment will be slightly different depending on whether you are a woman or a man, but also depending on whether you are young or old, or if you are in great shape or if you have some health concerns:

5 – Choose according to the travel destination

The destination is a very important point that I could have put in position number 1. Clearly, depending on the country or place visited, you will not have the same needs in terms of travel accessories. Hot countries VS cold countries, rich countries vs poor countries etc.

6 – Choose according to the weather

Because yes, the weather is very important when you go on a trip! Is it a rather sunny and warm destination, or would it rather be a stay that promises to be rainy, windy or even snowy?!

7 – Choose according to the season!

The season and therefore the period in which you go will obviously count for a lot. Depending on whether it is winter or summer where you are going, this will be different. Fighting the cold is not the same as protecting yourself from the sun, we’re not lying!

7 – Choose according to your travel needs!

Not everyone has the same travel needs. Some people want to stay handsome/beautiful for example and will need beauty accessories, others will need a certain level of comfort, or still others will be rather minimalist:

8 – Choose according to the planned activities

Because going swimming has little to do with climbing a volcano for example, you will need to take with you some useful accessories depending on what you are going to do.

What to pack for travel?

After having seen the different accessories depending on the type of trip, we will get to the heart of the matter, and talk about accessories according to the category of need, that is to say the content to put in your backpack or suitcase.

Organization and Storage

Because with everything we have to take with us to have a good trip, it is important to be well organized and above all to put our things away properly, otherwise it will quickly become a mess in our backpack and/or traveling bag.

Organize your bag or suitcase well!

With all the accessories and equipment that you are going to take, it is obvious that you will need a minimum of organization. And to do this, store your luggage correctly so you can find everything easily, but above all access it without problem and not spend hours looking for what you need. For this, here are some tips:
