International travel opens up doors to entirely new worlds. The ideal packing list for travel abroad will obviously depend on factors like where you’re going, what season you’re traveling in, what you plan to do, how you prefer to get around, and how long you’ll be away.
That said, there are lots of things I rarely go abroad without regardless of the destination! So I put together this international packing checklist to encompass the world. Below, you’ll find a list of things NOT to bring, as well as tips about what to wear and common FAQs to make your trip a success.
Of course, any trip will be better with a healthy dose of patience, humility, and adventure – so consider them part of the ultimate packing list!
