A Semester Abroad: Packing Tips for Students
Are you preparing for an exciting semester abroad and unsure what to pack? Here's a handy guide to help make your journey smooth and stress-free.
Important Essentials
First, if you're taking electronic devices like a laptop, phone, hairdryer, or camera, ensure they are dual voltage (110/220 watt). If not, invest in a converter/adapter set. Remember, converters vary: some are for high voltage, others for low, and some accommodate both. Also, check with your phone provider to ensure your device will work in your host country, and get a grounded adapter for your laptop.
Financial Preparedness
Bring credit cards in your name and make duplicate copies of your passport, keeping them separately in a safe place. Note down credit card numbers and emergency contact details. Wearing a money belt is wise; it’s discreet and protects against pickpockets. Store extra cash and a copy of your passport in it, but use a wallet for everyday purchases. Money belts come in various styles to wear around your waist, neck, or leg.
Smart Luggage Choices
Opt for collapsible rolling duffels. They’re available in large sizes, easy to manage, and can be stored under a bed or in a closet. Wheels make them easier to handle when full, and many can hook up a second bag for heavy items like books and shoes. A foldable tote is also useful for bringing back souvenirs from your travels.
Language and Memories
If you're unfamiliar with the local language, a phrasebook or electronic translator can be invaluable. You'll gradually learn bits and pieces, but these tools will enhance your experience. Keep a journal to capture the wealth of experiences and memories, as you'll want to remember every moment.
Embarking on a semester abroad is an incredible adventure. With these packing tips, you’ll be well-prepared to enjoy every aspect of your journey. Safe travels!
