What are the basic essential items for traveling?

1. ID card or passport: Without the ID card, you are like a fugitive, and you will be in trouble all the time.

2. Cash and credit cards: Cash must be matched in whole parts, otherwise you will suffer losses or even get counterfeit bills. If you are staying at a hotel, be sure to bring a credit card to avoid pledging large amounts of cash at the front desk.

3. Air or train tickets: If you forget to bring them with you, it is often too late to buy them now.

4. A small amount of medicine: a small amount of anti-inflammatory drugs, coptis, band-aids, wind oil essence, and cold medicine. They are important items to ensure that the trip will not be abandoned halfway. Here I would like to add a little experience, that is, please bring a small piece of clean ginger. When you have acute enteritis and diarrhea and abdominal pain, take a small piece of ginger. It only takes a few minutes. Some are OK. This is a successful experience that I personally tried again in the suburbs a few days ago. It is better than berberine and saved a delicious meal. In fact, I hate eating ginger the most, but I would also strongly recommend that you and I bring it.

5. A few pieces of chocolate: Tourism areas are often unpredictable. Once you fall into a cold, humid, mountainous wind, hungry and cold situation, a few pieces of chocolate are the backbone of persistence. I have experienced this myself. It's best to prepare a few more pieces of beef jerky, which can extend the time you resist hunger and boost your spirits.

6. Compass: It is very easy to lose your sense of direction in the hilly areas of the south (Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan). Coupled with the sparse population, you may never get home.

7. Watches or Business Link and Wenquxing: Time is the key to ensuring a smooth trip. Business Link and Wenquxing not only have time and alarm clocks, but also have a lot of content that is helpful for travel. Some friends said that if you have a watch on your mobile phone, you don’t need to carry a watch anymore. I would say if you are only traveling for two days, use your phone to time it. But when traveling for more than two days, looking at the watch on your phone is problematic and dangerous. On the one hand, the battery power of the mobile phone is limited. Repeatedly turning on the phone to check the time will inevitably waste power and shorten the standby time of the mobile phone. It is usually not easy to find a charging place in tourist spots, and the power socket and voltage may not be suitable in foreign countries. And a mobile phone without battery is just a waste. Not only can it not contact the outside world in time in a crisis, but it can't even tell the time. Isn't it dangerous?

8. Mobile phone: Please remember that keeping an effective channel for yourself to communicate with the outside world is the last magic weapon when you are in trouble. This is true even when traveling abroad. Now

global communication mobile phones can fully guarantee global communication. It is recommended not to use your mobile phone as a watch, because the most common thing to lose when traveling is your mobile phone. As long as you don't need to make calls, keep them in the safest place. Before going to bed at night, be sure to turn off your phone to save power. According to this method, a thick lithium battery can generally last for four days of travel.

9. Destination map and journey map: This is another key item to ensure a smooth trip. This thing is really not heavy and does not take up much space, so bring it with you.

10. Flashlight: If you want a flashlight that is waterproof, anti-squeeze, good at focusing light, and has durable beads, buy the best high-capacity battery (at least AA size). Never skimp on money and use old batteries.

The above ten items are things that must be brought when traveling. They can ensure that you have a smooth and safe journey. Of course, if conditions permit, especially men, you can definitely bring some other items, such as multi-functional knives, replacement sneakers and clothes, drinks, rain gear, etc.
