   Student Travels - What to Pack
Remember packing your bags when you were off to college or university, being a student, you probably didn't need a lot - use the same method here, particularly if you're backpacking, the less you take the lighter your bag. Here are our Travel Tips

10 THINGS TO BRING FROM HOME

No one wants to forget something.
Everyone ask... What do I need to take with me?
I have answered this question a few time, but my answers
get better as time passes.

When planning a long trip or vacation you need to be
prepared. This is my growing list of things that I think
should be in your backpack before you leave. You may
be able to buy these things once you arrive, but I have found
it better to buy before you leave. Most other things you can
buy easily and are not essential.


1. ALARM CLOCK

Get one that winds up. The battery ones are nice, but the batteries
will corrode and the time you really need the battery to work it will
not. Try to buy the type of alarm that is enclosed inside a box, and you have
to open it to use. It will not break as easy.



2. ZIP-LOCK BAGS

One gallon zip-lock bags are indispensable. I use them for so many
thing. Bring at least 50. The uses for them are so numerous I will soon write
a tip on all the ways I use them.
