We’re sure you’ve come across 80 lists such as “Luggage Packing Guide” or “Things to Buy While Traveling” before.. We don’t know how many of them you think actually work, because these lists mostly offer you things you can’t forget, such as “don’t forget your passport”, “you can’t go without a toothbrush”, as if it’s a great suggestion.. Hey dude what are you talking about, what are you crazy or something? (should’ve read it with a dubbed voice) Of course we know we have to take our passport with us. Can you tell us something more significant? As a result, when we came across one of these bullshit lists the other day, we said ok, let’s make a version that works.. Frankly, when such a request came from a few people, we sat down with a gas and wrote.. At this point, we tried to include in the article what you should pay attention to in this process, as well as what you should pay attention to in this process, or tips about issues that you might miss. consists of things that happen to us as a result of getting up, things that we think make sense for us to tell you as a result of experiences. Of course, among these, there will be things that most of you might say “we already know”, but especially those who do not travel often can miss such details.. Let’s get to the point, saying it will be useful to someone.
1. Gather your important documents in one place.
Now think a few hours before you travel, trying to stay calm. A strange chaos, a “I’m forgetting something for sure, but what” mood that descended on you when you were about to go out the door, right? Be sure that no matter how many trips you take, no matter how normal this business becomes for you, that panic situation will never pass.. After all, you are going somewhere far from your home, you will probably have a concern.. At exactly the moments when you are dragged into that chaos, something can completely slip out of your mind and you can even leave behind the thing you say “Is that something to be forgotten”?. For this, gather the things that you think are “really important” and that you need to carry with you, not go in the suitcase, in one place.. It could be in a leaflet or something.. What are these? If you have a passport, ID, a document showing that you have travel/health insurance, a document about your reservations… If you collect such documents in one place, with a solid mind, from the previous evening and put them in your bag that you will take with you at the airport, they will make you feel much better. you feel safe. Because as long as you don’t forget to take these things with you, no matter what you forget, somehow you will find an alternative that can handle where you go.. By the way, while we’re talking about ready, be sure to check the validity dates of your passport and visa.. Then don’t go back home with your expired passport, don’t get depressed.
2. Make a list of essentials.
Cliche but true, making a list of essentials always works. After all, you are living in another place, even for a few days, so it is quite possible that you do not think of everything you need to take with you for this.. We use the notes section of the phone for this.. (genius detected) There may be 50 different apps or something, but for some reason we are in favor of progressing in a rather traditional way, thanks to this, I guess there is nothing very important that we have forgotten so far.. Once in Cuba, we thought we forgot the charger and felt like we were going to have a heart attack, thank goodness it came from somewhere.
3. Be aware of what you can’t take with you on the plane.
Whether it’s a carry-on, backpack or handbag, there are some things you can’t put in your plane, and you need to be aware of them. necessary. (let’s get the dynamite out of your bag now). Otherwise, you can’t help but grimace when the security guards looking at your bag say “you have to open your bag” or “we’re going to throw it in the trash, there’s nothing to worry about”.. You may already know that there are certain fluid restrictions, but let’s say it anyway.. There is usually up to 100 ml allowed for liquids and gels that you can pack on the plane. So you shouldn’t get too excited to say “I’ll put my giant perfume bottle in my bag” or think “They probably won’t take my lens solution either”.. They’ll take it Kamil, they’ll take it… Apart from these liquid restrictions, there are other things that are not allowed on the plane.. At the beginning of these, of course, are cutting and piercing tools.. Sorry, unfortunately you won’t be able to take your bread knife or hammer drill on your trip to Venice…..Joking aside, sometimes they can cause trouble for things you wouldn’t think of.. For example, if you have a rasp left in your bag that you wouldn’t mind using to stab someone, or if you threw 2-3 lighters in your bag just in case, even they might have a problem.. We lived it, we know from there.
4. It’s also useful to know what you can’t put in your suitcase.
Of course, we won’t come to you with suggestions like don’t put your stolen paintings and Kalashnikov in your suitcase, don’t be afraid.. What we’re talking about at this point is a little different.. There may be restrictions on some of the things you can bring into countries.. Things that you do not expect to be a problem can come to the point of “open your suitcase, bro, what are you doing” as soon as you X-Ray your suitcase, or we have passed the visa approval, here we are, when you say that we are entering the country, the man at the customs control (the place they call customs) opens your suitcase. Why is that suitcase so big?. What kind of things are we talking about? For example, smoking. I’m going to the city of X for 2 weeks, if you get up to buy 2-3 cartons of cigarettes from the free shop and they find that you have that amount of cigarettes with you, in most countries they leave you as much as you have permission and take the rest from you.. In fact, in some countries, they are so strict that it can come to the level of fines.. Sad but true. Likewise, this can apply to some plants and even fruits. You may find yourself in the interrogation room or something when you say that I will take your flower to my uncle in Germany.. This also applies to how much money you take with you.. For example, in most European countries If you are traveling with cash over 10,000 euros, you need to specify this as well. There are many such topics, but we cannot give you a clear list as it may vary according to the countries, it is useful to research it according to the country you will go to.. Spare luggage saves lives.
Dear shopping junkies, dear ones who lost themselves while shopping abroad, this tip is for you.. Now you are stuffing your suitcase and even taking 4-5 shoes or something with you… As if your feet won’t swell from walking eventually, and you won’t be haunted by your most comfortable shoes again, so that the photos you post on Instagram don’t say “I always wear the same shoes” with you. you are taking shoes. Sir, I have a word for you. are you big I’m older, Öykü Usta. If you don’t listen to our words and you will take so many clothes and shoes with you, take a spare suitcase.. Don’t tell me you’re a maniac, will I put a suitcase in a suitcase?. We don’t call it a suitcase. You know those cloth sports bags, something like that?. So when you can’t find a place to put the new things you bought there in your suitcase, you fill them in your spare suitcase, take it with you as a carry-on on your return, and return home like a pashas without the panic of crossing the weight limit.. Come on, you’re good again…
By the way, your spare suitcase also has the following advantage: When you go to the relevant unit at the airport for tax free, sometimes you may be asked to show the products you bought when you get your tax refund. At this point, you may be asked to show the products you just bought. If everything is in your spare suitcase, instead of opening the suitcase and struggling, you can directly show the things in your spare suitcase.
6. Consider worst case scenario if connecting flight. (Don’t worry, you don’t die in the end)
We said bad scenario, so we immediately started the discussion.. Don’t turn it into a class American movie, our worst case scenario in this story is your suitcase getting lost.. If it is a connecting flight, especially if there are several transfers, there is always a chance that your luggage will be lost, and although your luggage will eventually reach you, this process may take several days.. Not to scare you, but we even came across his suitcase completely lost, of course, this is not going to happen to you.. (They pay you anyway when that happens, don’t be afraid) We are experienced because İdil is a complete pro in suitcase mixing.. For this reason, if there is a connecting flight, we take a carry-on with us and put the necessary items in it that can handle us for a few days.. Therefore, we do not panic if our luggage is lost.
7. A little technology support is a must!
You’re going on a trip, you’ll be taking photos like crazy, and your phone and camera will be haunted.. For this, there is something we definitely take with us, and that is backup charger. We used to say portable charger, but we won’t say it, we decided to call it backup charger in Turkish. Let’s talk about it that way.. Because during the day, your battery runs out and you have to worry about not being able to take pictures, take one, throw it in your suitcase.. For those wondering, we use. Also, as a second suggestion, even as a necessity, check if the socket outlets of the country you are going to are compatible with ours. Otherwise, you will not be able to charge anything and you will be left in the middle.. As a solution to this, there are all kinds of adapters in technology markets and even places like D&R.. If there is a different socket outlet in the country you are visiting and you go without an adapter, you cannot even dry your hair, let alone charge the phone.. According to him.
8. It’s a day to display the sick attitude.
Of course, it’s not very pleasant to think about things like if something happens to me in the month before your travels, which should be something fun first of all.. But still, we should not lose sight of the precaution.. However, it is useful to take a few things with you over the possibilities, taking into account some issues that you do not experience very often in your daily life.. Such as band-aids, pain relievers, eye drops, insecticide or sunscreen… Especially if you are going to a place that is more nature-oriented than a big city trip, throw it in your suitcase as you will not be able to get such things easily if you need it.

9. Apply our “genius” idea to deceive thieves.
Security is important, that butt will be secured, otherwise one cannot walk peacefully. At this point, while we weren’t traveling so worried, thanks to our mothers, there has been an issue that has been on our minds over time and has pushed us to take precautions recently: Not carrying all the cash we take with us in one place.. (Yes mom, you’re responsible if I’m experiencing such a panic) Especially when we spent about 3 weeks in South America and heard a lot of theft memories about that place, we said okay let’s find a solution to this.. He found a very ingenious solution? no. pretty traditional. Next to the wallet we actually use, we take something like a purse, let’s not know what, and divide our money into two and place it in unrelated places.. At least, you can use this technique where you foresee the possibility of having security problems.
10. Use sneaky techniques for your breakable things.
We are the Y generation, we are influenced by the Tasty videos we see on the internet, we are influenced by the “how to pack” videos as much as we try those recipes at home and come up with disgraceful things.. Do we regret it? No! We’ve been using a technique in a video we’ve watched for a few years for so long that it’s become perfectly normal for us.. How do you ensure that your fragile and small items stay in your suitcase intact? Here’s how: tuck the item in a sock and then place that sock inside your shoe.. After being exposed to videos of them throwing those suitcases like shit bags, we couldn’t live without putting this action in motion….
