Technically, when you start packing for your holidays, you need to bear in mind a few parameters like your gender, whether you are traveling for vacation or business, the duration of your trip, the season of travel, weather, temperature, countries you want to travel to (Western countries, Middle-Eastern, Asian, etc.), kind of places you plan to visit (beach, forests, weddings, professional events, religious monuments, etc.), and the gear that you would need for the activities you plan to do on your vacation (hiking, camping, swimming, scuba diving, surfing, rafting, kayaking, skiing, snowboarding, etc.)

Our readers often ask us what are the things we need to keep in mind while planning a trip and the things we need to do before we travel. To be honest, years back, when we started with our travels, we didn’t even know where to start. And today, after having traveled to 39 countries across the globe, by driving 300,000+ km, taking the train, plane, boat, cruise, and whatnot, and having created a chest of thrilling memories, I can safely proclaim that we’ve had our share of experiences and learnings!
