So the long-awaited vacation came, and you were going to visit Thailand for the first time. I would like to take new outfits, and a bunch of cosmetics, and a lot of all sorts of things. We will try to help you decide what to bring to Thailand? Take the essentials. The less, the better, but we will not forget the main thing. Let's start with the documents. First of all, prepare: a passport and a photocopy of it, medical insurance, a ticket (printout) and a plastic bank card (there are a lot of ATMs and they are almost everywhere), a printout of the return ticket, and for the taxi driver who takes you from the airport to the hotel - a printout of your reservation. Take some cash (dollars or euros). For documents, take a small bag that is worn on the stomach. Convenient and safe.
What to bring to Thailand from medicines? Be sure to take the medicines you take all the time, antihistamine, activated charcoal, iodine, Biseptol, patch, Panthenol (spray for burns), Aspirin or Fervex, medicine for upset stomach (Linex) and pain medication ("Nurofen"), as well as a bandage.
Thailand is a sunny country and we Europeans need to protect our skin from sunburn. To do this, bring along a sunblock with a high degree of protection, as well as sunglasses, which, incidentally, can be bought on the spot very inexpensively.
Now consider what to bring to Thailand from clothes. In a hot climate, things made from natural materials are appropriate. Several T-shirts, T-shirts made of cotton fabrics, shorts, breeches, skirts. Be sure to take a genuine long-sleeved shirt. It will come in handy if you burn. You definitely need to take a swimsuit and underwear, you are unlikely to buy what suits you on the spot. Leave warm clothes at home, you can take only a light jacket for the evening.
Which shoes to take? You can sneakers (you’ll fly in them and be able to dress, you have an excursion to the mountainous regions), low-heeled sandals or sandals, beach slippers will also be useful to you. To visit Thai temples, take sandals with closed heels. Do not forget that the skirt or trousers when visiting such institutions should be long, and the shirt also with a long sleeve. Try to take light clothes so that you are not so hot.
What to bring to Thailand from cosmetics? Take waterproof mascara, face tonic, wet wipes, antiperspirant deodorant, cotton pads and sticks. Do not forget the toothbrush and toothpaste, manicure and men - shaving accessories. Towels, soap and shower gels are optional. They are always in hotels, so it makes no sense to carry around with you.
What to bring to Thailand from office equipment? A camera, laptop, phone will come in handy, just do not forget the cords and power supplies to them. A sim card for the phone is better to take on the spot. You can take a cord for connecting laptops and a power strip, because in Thailand there are often power surges. A small electric kettle can also come in handy.
What to take to Thailand from rain? But nothing ... Raincoats cost a penny and you can buy them on the spot, and in such hot weather the clothes dry out instantly. Leave your umbrellas at home calmly and do not load your luggage with them.
But what about the presence of insects? What to take with you to Thailand to protect against them? Take "Moskitol", suddenly you want to visit the jungle, and without this you will have to be a little taut.
Do not forget the baseball cap or cap on your head, since panama hats, hats and bandanas can fly into the sea when taking a boat trip. A minimum of clothes - a maximum of amenities. You must follow this. Try packing in a lightweight backpack.
In general, what to take to Thailand, everyone decides for himself, and we just give good advice so that you enjoy the trip, come home rested, tanned and happy. Enjoy your trip to the mysterious country of Thailand!
