What to take on a trip

Before you pack, check out the places where you are going to visit - read reviews and useful tips for travelers on the Internet - this will help to adjust your list and include it in the most necessary.

Preparation of documents

There are cases when documents are lost or stolen during the trip, useful advice for travelers in this case: make copies of all important papers (passports, insurance, tickets, rights) in advance. Leave one copy at home, take another with you. You can also save an electronic copy in your inbox. In case of an unforeseen situation, you can contact the embassy or travel agency with copies of documents in hand. According to a survey, the USA is number 2 on the list of Top 10 countries where passports can be lost or stolen.

Read the insurance carefully. Be sure to check what medical services it includes in order to know what to rely on in case of illness or injury, what services will be provided for free, and for which you will have to pay from your pocket.

Stock up with a list of emergency numbers of the place you are going: police, fire, ambulance. In case of loss of a bank card, your phone number will be required, write down the number of the insurance company and the embassy. Keep this list always in sight.

Cash: bank cards and cash

Remember to exchange currency when you are in a foreign country and always keep cash with you. Not all places accept cards. When you bring a bank card with you, make sure that it will be served in the country of destination. Be sure to warn the bank about your plans to withdraw money from a card in another country.

Souvenirs

Do not forget to please loved ones with souvenirs and gifts. Do not rush to buy them in the first available place. As a rule, in crowded tourist places, the prices are very high.
