Packing

In addition to all the usual (We'll assume you don't forget your swimming trunks!) you might want to consider taking the following:

• Photocopy all important documents and keep with you (passport, drivers license, credit cards, etc.)
• Have important numbers written down (emergency contact, bank and credit card emergency phone numbers (in case of theft of bank cards, etc)
• Make sure PIN numbers are not written down on any accompanying documents.
  Enclose your home and destination address and contact inside your baggage
• Mark your case for easy identification (coloured stickers,tape, etc.)
• Money belt
• Medications (and duplicate prescriptions in case lost)
• Spare eye glasses/contact lenses
