Welcome! Below is a good started for a packing list. I don’t cover basic stuff like clothes, hyenine items, and other things that are likely going to be deeply personalized to every traveler, so this list is trying to outline the base necessities for your travel so that you can copy this list. Then paste it and built off of it and utilize it as a checklist for every trip there forth. Enjoy!

This is a just-incase failsafe your luggage gets lost. I’ve seen it a few times now and every time the luggage is found and comes in late, so your goal is to bring enough you can enjoy yourself still until it arrives.
