Come Travel with B – Part #4

What to pack? How should I pack my suitcase?  Well we have covered what to pack with Part 3, the checklist should have helped you to get to the next step – packing!

You can make your checklists as detailed as you like and that is the beauty of them.  Simple, detailed and color coded checklists can help you elevate some of the stress traveling brings along.

Travels’ Checklist is a website that will generate a checklist according to your needs.  The website is simple to navigate and provides you a checklist for your travel preparations, documents, packing list, destination info, tips and a map of your location and updates on realtime weather.

If you are super detail oriented then this website is for you.

I found this checklist online and I like the layout if it.  It’s clean and to the point.

Print this checklist and give it a bash, if you do let me know if it helps.

If you use your smart phone for everything then I would invest in downloading an app that can help you.  There are so many out there, research the one you like, check out the reviews.  Oh and always get the free versions.

I will be using the print out along with the website for my trip which is a week away, so I will keep you all updated.
