One of the biggest questions before every trip is probably what and how much to pack in your suitcase. Here you can find out which utensils are really useful and should be in your luggage on your next trip.
Universal adapter
Other countries, other plugs.
If you are traveling to a foreign country or several countries at once, you need to consider the type of socket in the destination country beforehand. With a universal adapter, you are ideally equipped for every country and every socket in the world. It is best to opt for a version with additional USB ports so that you can also use the adapter as a multiple plug and charge several devices at the same time.
Inflatable neck cushion
A long flight or a long bus or car journey is often unavoidable on long-distance trips. We have the solution for you so that you don’t get a stiff neck or can sleep more comfortably even on long journeys. A neck pillow supports our head and prevents it from tipping to one side while we sleep. Inflatable neck pillows also save space in your bag, so they fit in any hand luggage and are quickly ready for use with little effort.
Fanny pack
To keep valuables such as your passport and money with you at all times, we recommend a bum bag, which is currently experiencing a fashionable resurgence thanks to the latest collections from well-known designers. For those who are not yet enthusiastic about the trend, there are bags in an extra-thin design especially for traveling. Put a T‑shirt or sweater over it and the bag is barely recognizable and protects your valuables from pickpockets.
Sun cream as a hiding place for valuables
We’ve all been there: the sun is shining and you need to cool off in the sea, but where to put your valuables? Most people carry a tube of sun cream with them on a day at the beach, so it doesn’t attract much attention. The perfect place for a hiding place. The tubes for valuables are available to buy or are easy to make yourself. Simply wash out an old sun cream cover and cut open the top edge so that the lid can still be opened and closed. A large tube is best for this, so that a cell phone can also fit in. To avoid noises such as a bunch of keys or money, simply put a handkerchief in the box.

Waterproof cell phone case
Boat trips or kayak tours are often on the program during vacations. If you don’t want to do without your cell phone or camera despite the water, there are special waterproof cell phone cases available. There are also waterproof bags for larger items, which can easily accommodate passports and other items and protect them from getting wet.
Packing systems for the suitcase
Especially when traveling with a backpack, sooner or later you get annoyed by the mess in your backpack and the fact that you have to search for every little thing. So-called packing systems help you to organize your luggage and avoid potential chaos. The systems are available in different sizes, so you can use the larger ones for clothes and smaller ones for technical equipment or your first-aid kit. You can also save space in your rucksack or suitcase with compressible packing aids. After your first trip with the garment bags, you won’t want to travel without them again.
Plastic box and spork
A plastic box when traveling is a real all-round item. This means you can easily take snacks or leftovers from your breakfast with you on hikes or excursions. If you are not using the box for food, it can also be used for other items such as medicines or as protection for cosmetics that could leak. There are also foldable versions that take up little space in your luggage. Spoons are ideal in combination with a plastic box. A spoon is a combination of a fork and a spoon, ideally with a knife, and is therefore also a useful item for eating on the go.
Foldable drinking bottle
If you travel a lot, especially in southern regions, you should also drink a lot. A foldable drinking bottle is worthwhile to save space. It takes up little space in your luggage and you can carry it with you at all times so you can constantly refill it with drinking water. Even at airport security checks, the bottle can simply be rolled up and stowed in your hand luggage after you have finished drinking. You are also doing something for the environment by avoiding unnecessary plastic waste.
