You have already planned your holidays, but still don‘t know what to take on your trip? The list of things first of all depends on what kind of holidays it is. The usual ones are relaxing, active or business trips. Holidays may also take a rather long time and include all three variants. From now on you won‘t have to make a list which will get longer and longer every single day.
Packing list is commonly divided into three groups: essential things, which include items you won't be able to travel without, so you will have to purchase them anyway; very useful things that you may miss during the trip or find them very helpful, and optional items that you might find practical depending on your needs and the type of trip you're taking.

Just like in the first group, clothing depends on your destination; still you may need belt, cap, swimming trunks, hip pouch or money belt. Medical supplies include antifungal cream, water purification tablets, anti-bacterial cream and some pain revealers. Such supplies as nail cutter and razor may be needed. If you think such things like scissors, pocket knife or extra batteries would make your trip easier - pack them too.
Depending on your necessities and type of holidays you may also take a diary or address book, dual time watch, slippers, make up kit, perfume, hair styling gel, cold cream, camera, laptop, radio, MPS3 player, shoe polish, compass, sewing kit, laundry clips for holding clothes, inflatable neck support or air pillow, plastic cup, book or magazine for reading during the journey.
