Mispacking is probably the easiest way to ruin a trip. Not having appropriate attire or toiletries, or having important items broken in transit can really spoil a trip.
WHAT TO TAKE
The number-one rule in packing for a trip, unless you have hired several football players to carry your gear for you, is to pack lightly. You will be moving your luggage into the trunk of your car, out of the trunk of your car, through the airport, off of the luggage carousel, to the train station, to the bus stop, onto the bus, off the bus, back two kilometers because you overshot your stop, up six flights of stairs, and onto the dresser.
While this might be great exercise, you might rather save your energy for climbing up to the top of the cathedral. Leave the bowling ball at home.
Toiletries
Toothpaste, Toothbrush, Contact lens equipment and spare glasses, Makeup (for business trips), Razor, Hair care equipment (brushes, comb, blow dryer), Business/calling cards.
If you are doing a low-budget trip, you should also bring cleansing products: Soap (in a plastic bag), Shampoo (or shave your head and use bar soap), Towel. If you will be looking at ceilings (like on a castle or church crawl), bring a small mirror so that you won’t strain your neck.
Clothes: take enough underwear for one week, or for the length of the trip plus two days, whichever is shorter. If you are traveling on business, you can probably take two suits and rotate between them. Bringing a pair of flip-flops (also called thongs or shower slippers). Not only can they come between you and the strange things that are growing in the bathroom of the scummy dive you ended up in, but if your shoes get wet, this gives you something that you can wear while they dry.
Miscellaneous: Day pack, Neck wallet or money belt, Tiny flashlight, Tape and magic marker, Earplugs, waterbottle, Phone Numbers, passport, Watch with alarm.

Tips para viajeros
El viajar es un placer hasta el momento en que uno se enfrenta con la titánica tarea de armar la maleta. No importa si uno viaja a Barcelona, Lisboa o Buenos Aires, las preguntas que resuenan en nuestra cabeza son siempre las mismas: ¿qué ropa llevo?, ¿cómo hago para que todo el equipaje quede bien ordenado?
1- Ten en cuenta el clima del lugar al que viajas, ya que no es lo mismo armar tu equipaje para un frío extremo que para un calor intenso.
2 – Viaja con maletas livianas, dado que al momento de trasladarte el peso puede ser una complicación, aunque hoy existan distintos modelos de maletas con rueditas que facilitan el transporte.
3 – Piensa bien qué calzado llevar, puesto que es la parte más pesada del equipaje. Una buena idea es llevar un par elegante y otro extremadamente cómodo. El primero, porque nunca sabes con qué situación puede sorprenderte el viaje y hay lugares a los que sin el atuendo indicado no podrás acceder. El segundo, que es para usar todo el día durante las largas caminatas, eventualmente lo puedes descartar antes del regreso a casa.
4 – Arma equipos de vestimenta para el día y para la noche repitiendo las prendas básicas: pantalones, faldas, camisas y blusas, entre otras. Por lo general, estas prendas pesan muy poco y son fáciles de lavar. Considera que si viajas a un lugar frío, necesitas un espacio extra para jerseys, chaquetas y abrigos.
5 – Pon la ropa en bolsas de nylon para evitar que se ensucie o arrugue. De esta manera, al deshacer tu valija, en vez de sacar todo en forma desordenada, sacarás cuatro o cinco bolsas. La ropa interior y los trajes de baño colócalos en bolsas más pequeñas y ten en cuenta que como no se arrugan pueden rellenar los huecos de la maleta.
6 – Comienza a armar la maleta colocando los zapatos, los cuales deben estar en su bolsita de género, y usa los calcetines para rellenar sus punteras. Intenta que ocupen una superficie lo más plana posible. Encima del calzado te recomiendo que pongas el jean o un par de jerseys y, luego, las diferentes bolsas, empezando con los pantalones y las faldas y terminando con las camisas y las blusas. Arriba de todo, y sin bolsa, van las chaquetas y los abrigos.
7 – Para pasar por aeropuertos con sistemas de seguridad muy rigurosos, pon todo lo que no sea ropa en la parte de arriba de la maleta, así evitarás que te revuelvan el equipaje completo buscando aquellos instrumentos que aparecen como extraños en el detector de metales.
8 – Lleva siempre en el bolso de mano lo necesario como para subsistir un par de días en el caso que pierdan tus maletas. Si están claramente identificadas, las maletas a la larga aparecen, pero tener que comprar una muda de ropa a la fuerza no es la mejor opción.
9 – Si despachas líquidos, ahora que no se pueden llevar en el bolso de mano, corrobora que estén herméticamente cerrados en frascos de plástico y además envuélvelos en un par de bolsas de nylon anudadas. Nunca despaches vino o licores.
10 – Pesa tu equipaje antes de viajar para no tener sorpresas desagradables a la hora de despachar tus maletas. ¡Es más fácil deshacerse de los excesos en la casa que en el aeropuerto!
Espero que estos consejos te sirvan para poder disfrutar de tus vacaciones sin dolores de cabeza. Ahora sí, ¡reserva tu hotel y buen viaje!

Otros tips:
Acople y encinte los adaptadores eléctricos del secador de cabellos, del grabador, de la notebook y de cualquier electrodoméstico que lleve en su viaje. Así no los olvidará ni perderá.
Lleve los medicamentos, sus documentos personales y cualquier otro papel de importancia en su equipaje de mano, nunca en la valija o equipaje a despachar. De esa manera si las valijas se pierden, los problemas serán menores.
No olvide que en muchos aeropuertos internacionales se paga una tasa de embarque y/o algún tipo de impuesto de salida. Infórmese con anticipación, y en el aeropuerto tenga a mano el importe correspondiente, ahorrará tiempo y molestias.
Cuando planifique sus vacaciones, hágaselo saber a su agente de viajes con bastante anticipación. Muchas veces aparecen promociones por muy corto tiempo y si su agente conoce sus posibilidades en cuanto a fechas de salida y regreso, como así también sus preferencias sobre destinos, podrá consultarlo de inmediato para ofrecerle estas ofertas.
No olvide dar detalles de su viaje (fechas y lugares) a familiares, vecinos y/o personas de confianza. Si algo ocurre mientras viaja, varias personas saben donde se encuentra y habrá mejores chances de ayuda en caso de ser necesaria.
