How to Pack for a 5 Day Vacation


For me, vacation means HOLIDAY! Before leaving your hometown, you must to plan your trip carefully. A 5 day vacation is always enjoyable. However, you will need to pack some necessary essentials in order to have a great one!

Here are some tips. 

1. Make sure to check the weather. You don't want to pack sweaters and jeans to find out that the weather that week will be warm! You can search the weather forecast at google and it is free. 

2. Pack items that will occupy you. Some good ideas are books, video game devices, iPods, cell phones, etc. You never know when you will get bored during that trip!

3. Remember a bathing suit just in case you go swimming. Even if you are going to a place with cold weather, bring one in case you were to go to an indoor pool.

4. Bring some money! A big travel mistake is forgetting money, and not being able to buy souvenirs or gifts. If you bring any, be careful with it. Carry it in a pocket, or even stuff it in your shoe if you are visiting a busy city like New York City, Las Vegas, Chicago, etc. If you're in a place where it's not so likely that you will get mugged, just put it into a handbag and make sure to be cautious.


5. If you want to bring something that is important to you, make sure to pack it. If you have a special item that is important to you at home, don't say, "I don't think I'll need it," then you end up wanting the item. Just bring it if it's special to you.

6. Take care of your teeth. You need to brush and floss your teeth. Bring a toothbrush, toothpaste, floss, and mouthwash (if you use mouthwash) and a bottle of water, for rinsing.

7. Take care of your hair. What do you use for your hair at home? Well, bring it with you. Hairbrush, Shampoo & Conditioner, and ponytail holders are definitely things that you should bring with you.

8. Take care of your body. Make sure to shower during this trip; there is no need to be greasy or smell bad. Shampoo, conditioner, deodorant, body wash, body spray, and soap are the main body care items that you will need during the five days, but bring any other body care items that you may use.

9. Decide on your sleeping supplies. Where will you be sleeping? Most likely you won't be needing to worry about a sleeping bag and pillow unless you are going camping. No matter where you go, you will need pajamas. But bring whatever sleeping supplies you may need depending on where you are going.

10. Get your weather supplies together. In case it rains, bring a jacket of some sort. Also, in the rare case of a severe storm, make sure you have whatever you would need to get through that storm.

Remember:


  • Don't over pack! Remember that you will be bringing other stuff home from your vacation too!
  • Be neat while packing in order to make more things fit and be able to find things.
  • Pack as lightly as you can.


  • Don't bring anything that you would never want stolen or lost, unless you want to or need to. There is always the chance that your items could be stolen or lost.
