For far too many years, I would approach my summer holidays the way I approach many things in my life: in a rush, and with excitement blended with fear. Though, at least in theory, leaving your home to spend a few days off-grid, away from your desk and all KPIs, should spark nothing but joy, I know for a fact that a break in the routine can also bring our stress levels up. That's why I have since decided to face my breaks with a clear plan, starting with what I find non-negotiable to pack.
Making a list of all of the travel essentials you are planning on taking with you is the only way to ensure you get to your destination prepped up for anything — from adventurous excursions to glamorous evening galas. Today, you're in luck, as that's exactly what I am here for, and I have gathered an 18-point check list that will make you feel comfortable and chic without hitting your wallet too hard.
