I’m a list junkie and I always make at least two lists of things to remember every time I go, but I still find myself always forgetting something and having to buy underwear or a phone CHARGER at the airport.
That’s why I came back to it when I realized that “Just in Case” was about the main requirements for things needed in your luggage.
I know a couple who are so organized that they have a bag ready, prepared, and filled with all those essential things in a closet by their front door in case they need to rush somewhere in a hurry. I aspire to be that avant-garde, but I know I would still forget something.
