Let’s face it – traveling for the weekend always sounds like a great idea until you’re 10 minutes away from home and realize you’ve left your charger behind.
But don’t worry, I’ve got your back! This weekend travel checklist for women will help you get out the door and into adventure without the stress.
Essentials
- Passport/ID
- Credit cards, cash
- Travel tickets (flight/train/bus)
- Travel insurance details
- Itinerary
- Emergency contacts
- Phone & charger
- Headphones
Clothing
- Comfortable shoes (for those “let’s just walk to the moon” moments)
- Sunglasses
- Light jacket/coat
- Undergarments
- Sleepwear
- Swimsuit (just in case you find a pool)
- Jeans/leggings
- Dresses (for those “I might need to look fancy” moments)
Toiletries
- Toothbrush & toothpaste
- Skincare products (because who can travel without their skincare routine?)
- Deodorant
- Shampoo & conditioner
- Hairbrush/comb
- Hair ties
- Makeup (for when you want to feel like a queen for a day)
- Feminine hygiene products
Tech & Gadgets
- Phone charger & portable power bank
- Camera (because we all know you’ll want to Instagram every moment)
- E-book reader/tablet
- Travel adapter
- Headphones or earplugs (to block out that one person on the plane who’s really into their karaoke)
Miscellaneous
- Snacks (you’ll thank me when you’re hangry)
- Water bottle
- Travel pillow (for the comfiest nap on that 2-hour bus ride)
- Extra plastic bags (for when you realize your shampoo exploded in your bag)
- First-aid kit
- Medications
- Journal/notepad (because inspiration strikes at the weirdest times)
Ready for your weekend getaway? Well, don’t forget that one pair of shoes you’ll spend half the trip regretting bringing or that extra coat because “it might get cold,” but you never wear it. Packing light? Never heard of her. Have fun, and may your weekend be filled with great adventures… and zero forgotten chargers!
