The Essential Packing List For Your Next Girl’s Holiday

Packing for your girl’s holiday can be stressful. You have to take double everything just in case. Furthermore, there are two types of people when it comes to packing for their holiday. You get one person who leaves it until the night before without needing a list. Then you have the other person that packs the weekend before with an endless list of items they think they will need. 

The other worry is overpacking. Is your bag too heavy or do you think you can squeeze another pair of heels into your bag? If you have to sit on your suitcase just so you can close it, there is every chance you have overpacked. Remember, if you travel light, you will not have to pay any extra fees for the weight of your suitcase. Moreover, you have to remember what essentials you need and the necessities. Time to look at the essential packing list for your next girl’s holiday. 

Destination

First things first, you must consider your destination before you begin throwing clothes into a suitcase. Are you going to a beach holiday destination with many bars and clubs? Or are you going for a nice quiet city break with a few friends? These two holidays are very different so that is why you should remind yourself of the type of holiday you are going on. 

Although the majority of the countries within Europe are warm. Moreover, there are a few countries that cool down by the time it gets to the winter months. Some people think Spain is hot all year round when it isn't. If you are going somewhere like Prague, Amsterdam or Krakow, you should pack a few jackets to wear in the evening. 

Another thing you should check before you go on holiday is what the weather is like when you are there. It is pointless packing a suitcase with summer clothes when it has forecasted to rain for the first few days. Pack smart if you want to make the most of the space in your suitcase. 

The Essentials

Now, we are onto the part where you pack your hand luggage. It will include all the important information about your flights including items you need to get you on the plane and into another country. The items for your hand luggage include; Travel wallet, passport, tickets, cash, your phone and charger, travel info and a travel guide if you are unsure where you are going when you get off. 

The Journey

Next, you need the essentials for the plane. If it is a long flight, you will want to have a nap at some point to make it quicker. There are so many little gadgets you can take on board with you to help you sleep. Eye masks, travel pillows, and ear plugs are the essential items you need. If you know it will be sunny when you land, then you should buy female sunglasses. Furthermore, you need to pack the essentials if it is cold. This includes a hat, a scarf and gloves. You might also take an extra layer to prepare for the cold weather once you land. 

Clothes

Clothes are the next part of your packing list. It will include all of the clothes you will need for the holiday. Furthermore, you want to consider taking extra, just in case of any emergencies. Furthermore, there are smart ways of packing and then there are poor ways of packing your clothes. 

When packing your clothes, we would advise that you roll them up. If you wish to create even more space in your bag, put those rolled-up clothes in air-tight bags. It will create even more space in your suitcase, allowing you to pack more items if you need to. Before you start throwing random clothes in your bag, you need to pack smart as you probably don’t have too much baggage allowance. 

If it is a summer holiday, it is easy to pack for. You need to pack essential items such as your swimsuit, bikinis and other types of clothing for the beach. For your evening wear, take a few clothes that are suitable such as crop tops, short dresses, party bodysuits and anything else you can think of. 

For a city break in a colder country, there are different items that you will need to take. Think of hoodies, long-sleeved tops, sweaters, jackets and more. If you know it will be cold, take multiple pairs of hats, gloves and scarves in case you need them. 

Toiletries

Up next, we have got the toiletry bag that you need to pack. You can only take 100 ml bottles on the flight so make sure you shop for travel-sized toiletries for your holiday. The essential toiletries you need include a toothbrush, makeup, moisturiser, wipes, razer, makeup and anything else you think you will need. One final thing to mention is again, remember you only need the essentials. Don’t worry about carrying sun cream when you can buy it over there. Take only the essentials you know you will need. 

Technology

Technology is the next lot on your list and although it is simple, people still forget certain things. One thing that many people forget is a travel adapter, and you need to check what type of plug you require on your holiday. 

A camera may be something you want to take but we would suggest you take a disposable one with you. The reason is that you can lose it and you don't want to lose an expensive camera whilst on your holiday.

Remember to take chargers for any technology you are taking with you. It includes your phone as well as a laptop charger if you are taking one with you. If you are a Kindle person, take a kindle with you as well. 

Summary

So there you have it, your essential packing list for your next girl’s holiday. As you can see, there are a lot of items that you need for your holiday. That is why you must make a list so you do not forget anything before you go.
