On a long journey, even a straw weighs heavy. Spanish proverb Carrying your checklist with you during your travels can also be useful when repacking, by helping to ensure that you have not forgotten anything. The consistent use of such a checklist (keep one in your bag, or the room where you regularly pack) is the single most important step you can take to lighten your packing load. One-Page Packing ChecklistThis is a travel packing checklist, not a list of items to bring on any particular trip! Rather, it's more like a "worst-case scenario", and functions as a self-imposed constraint, a kind of promise to yourself that "if it's not on my list, I won't put it in my bag" (see: Do I Really Need a Packing List?). If you're departing on a three-day business trip to Albuquerque, your bag might contain only a fraction of these items. If you're off on an extended trip, or to see a bit more of the real world, then more of them will be relevant; common sense should dictate. But although there will almost always be things on your list that are not in your bag (i.e., unnecessary to a specific journey), there should be nothing in your bag that's not on your list. It's a rare trip indeed that would need every item below (all of which are discussed in detail in the annotated packing list section). But even if you do bring everything, it will still — apart from those list items that you wear (or carry on your person), and subject to the nature of any "specialty items" you believe necessary — fit in a single, carry-on-sized bag.

We have been getting a lot of questions and we know there are a lot of experienced backpackers here, so we would compile a list of tips for them.
