My Bags

70 liter Backpack by Osprey

I absolutely loved this one. It fits everything so easily and I could carry it for ages without feeling sore in my back.

Carry-on Rolltop Gotbag

I used this one as Carry On on flights and on all of my adventures. It's fabric is made of ocean impact plastic and water resistant. I looove this one.

Small Hipbag

I put all of my important documents in here + my deodorant + wallet + AirPods, etc.

All the things I need to have with me super quickly

Beach Bag

Just a simple fabric bag, that I used at the beach or to bring my laundry to the laundry place.

TravelCubes

I don't know if they count as bags haha. But whenever I pack my big backpack I use them. They help to organize everything much better and help you save some space.

Drybag

When you hop on a kayak you want your stuff to be fully dry. You can buy these ones in Asia too though.

Extras

Steamer

it's 100% no Essential, but I loved to use it every now and then. So I don't have to worry about how I stuff my clothes.

Cosmetic

Sunprotection

Definitely make sure to bring enough! This is one thing that's super expensive in Asia + most of the time its quality is not so good.

Surf - Zinc Sunprotection

After Sun - Lotion

Skincare Products

the essential things you need (don't bring too much).

Make-Up Products

Facial Cleansing Products

Razor

I lost mine and bought one in Asia - they have a lot here too.

Hairbrush + Ties

Shampoo + Conditioner

I used non fluid ones. They pack smaller and last SO long.

Deodorant and Refills

I swear on my deo, you know that :D But def bring a deo - your hostel mates will thank you.

Moskito Spray

Desinfektion Spray

Clothing

5x Underwear

3x Socks

6x Bikinis/ Bathing Suits

I live in my bikinis :D

I wear them 24/7 and usually just combine them with a skirt/ shorts and a shirt on top. That's why I packed less TShirts and more Bikinis.

This one is a true lifesaver :D

When you got bitten by a mosquito you put this one on top, then it heatens up and the bite won't be itchy anymore + heals quicker.

Stick to open your Sim Slot

Depending on where you travel you'll buy a local SIM Card. Most of the times they'll change it for you but sometimes they don't. Then its super handy to have the stick with you :)

Eyedrops for dry eyes

It's not essential but it can be super helpful. I brought mine and used it several times.

Desinfektion Spray

Wound Cream

Medicine Stuff

I'd recommend to talk to a pharmacist and just prepare yourself with the stuff that feels important to you.

Some essentials:

• Charcoal tablets

Hopefully you'll never need them - but I had Bali Belly three times. You can buy these tablets in Asia as well.

• Ibuprofen

Any tablets against headache

• Motion Sickness tablets

Just in case you plan on going with the ferry/ boat and are likely to get seasick or carsick

Important Documents

Passport

Rule Number 1: Never give away your passport. Sometimes you have to when you extend your visa. But always try to keep it with you.

Copy of your Passport

in Case you loose it, or if someone wants to keep it you can hand out the Copy.

Vaccination Documents

Visa - Stuff

international drivers license

Credit Card

make sure to bring at least 2 options of Credit Cards. Just so if one stops working you still have a backup.

Keep in mind that sometimes there is a monthly withdrawal-limit. Check this first - so you won't be stranded somewhere and unable to withdraw money.

international health insurance

Sooo important!

Make sure to book one before you leave. I linked the one I use.

useful other Stuff

Bottle

There are several options to refill. Save some plastic guys

AirTags

Helped me soo often to track my stuff

Multiplug

Oftentimes there's only 1 plug in the hostel

Bag - lock

You can lock the zippers of your bag

Lockers - lock

Most hostel have lockers, that you can use to store your stuff. Make sure to lock it.

Rainponcho

Microfiber Towel

Empty Plastic Bags

Letherman

Drybag

Scooter Phone Holder

You can buy this one in Asia too, but this was super handy while riding the scooter. Make sure to use a good one, cause sometimes they try to steal your phone while driving.

Neckpillow for flights/ busrides

Earplugs/ Sleeping mask

Tools to fix the board and Quickfix (Solarez)

only when you surf & have an own board

and that's it

I know it sounds a lot & you're probably even thinking of bringing more than this.

All I can say is:



• Most of these things you can easily buy in Asia too.

• You want to leave room for the things you buy while traveling

• the more you travel the more you'll realize that you packed way too much
