Whenever I travel, I get nervous and excited about the trip, but the packing situation can be stressful, especially if you’re going to be outside your home country for 6 or more months! But not to worry, I will give you some tips that might make your life a bit easier and less stressful with this list of items and tips to pack for your internship abroad:
1. Essentials: about 2-3 complete outfits for different occasions, comfort shoes, some nice shoes, pijamas, swimsuit (even if you’re going to a cold place, you never know!), light jacket, hoodie, etc! try not to pack so many clothes, I am sure you will end up doing some shopping
2. A perfect formal outfit for any business event
3. Computer/Tablet
4. Worldwide power adapter
5. Your favorite snack/candy from your home country
6. Photos from your loved ones, just to make your homesick process a bit easier!
7. Your favorite pillow! This might sound weird, but it will definitely help you rest better
8. Bath essentials: shampoo, body wash, toothpaste, can be pricey in another country, so avoid these initial expenses and you’ll start saving some money!
9. An extra suitcase for all of the shopping you will be doing
10. Be sure your phone is unlocked so it accepts any international sim card!
