Student Travel: Backpacking in Europe
Summary
For many, life isn't complete without experiencing a backpacking trip through Europe. This adventure is often seen as a rite of passage, aiding in the growth of college students. Whether the appeal lies in exploring, socializing, or simply enjoying the sun and vibrant cities like Amsterdam, packing essentials remain key.
Selecting the Perfect Backpack
The first essential item is, of course, your backpack. There's no need to splurge on a high-end model, but steer clear of the cheapest options. To find a balanced choice, try a practical test: borrow three phone books and visit a sporting goods store. Stuff them into different backpacks, adjust the straps, and simulate a brisk walk or run to evaluate comfort and durability. This method will help identify the right pack for those last-minute dashes for transport or amenities.
Packing Essentials
Consider the wisdom of the little-known Oh-My-Back Monks of Southeast Asia, who famously chanted practical packing mantras. Before setting off, meditate on these key principles:
1. Pack Lightly: Avoid overburdening yourself.
2. Remember Replacements: Common items, like toothpaste or books, can be picked up along the way.
3. Avoid Overpacking: Don’t risk broken zippers by stuffing your backpack.
4. Embrace Wrinkles: Leave the iron at home.
5. One Guidebook: Resist bringing a separate guide for each country you might visit.
6. Embrace Change: Expect to return with different clothing, having lost or traded original items.
For those travelers inclined towards fashion, remember to leave high heels and excess makeup at home.
Capturing Memories
One challenge of traveling is remembering your experiences. Exciting encounters, whether romantic evenings or spontaneous adventures, may fade over time. Contact information jotted down on coasters or napkins often vanishes amidst the chaos of travel.
To preserve these moments, bring along a diary or journal. Opt for one with a resistant cover to endure spills and wear. Jot down your experiences during your travels. Later in life, revisiting these entries can bring back vivid memories and stories worth sharing.
In summary, with the right preparation and mindset, your European backpacking journey will be memorable and enriching. Embrace the adventure, and don't forget to document it.
