be in a hot climate, won’t melt!)
*Pro tip: Always double-bag liquid containers to avoid a giant mess if they burst or leak
during travel. Check with your airline’s regulations and make sure that you only put
liquids in your carry-on luggage that are small enough to comply with the guidelines. All
bigger liquid containers can go in your checked bag.
DO NOT pack:
•
Expensive jewelry or other valuable or fragile belongings
•
Anything airlines will take away from you (i.e. pocket
knives, large bottles of liquid in your carry-on luggage,
etc. Check your airline’s website to see what is
prohibited.)
•
Fresh produce. If you are traveling internationally, customs will not be happy
about it.
•
Too many books. They’re heavy and you probably won’t have much time to read
them anyway.
•
Too many snacks. You don’t need half a suitcase full; they will feed you. If you
have a dietary restriction: talk to your leader and make sure that those
coordinating your team’s food in the country are prepared to accommodate it and
carry a few extra snacks just in case.
•
Too much stuff. You probably will not need nearly as much as you think you
might. Try to go with lightweight clothes that you can easily wash, dry, and use
again.
