Don't forget 10 things you need to prepare before traveling abroad, whether to Thailand or to lands beyond. 

       What should we prepare each time we plan to travel abroad?

Today we have 10 things to prepare before going abroad.

1. Your passport is the most important document to verify your identity in another country.  First of all, we must have it with us when traveling out of the country.  Nowadays, issuing a passport is very easy and convenient. You must apply well in advance, though. 

2. Check the weather before traveling abroad. The weather in your destination city and country needs to be studied in advance in order to be properly prepared, especially by arranging clothes to suit the location or the activities. And don’t forget to include necessary extras such as medicine. 

3. Language of communication: Regardless of the purpose of going abroad, it is important to know basic language phrases, such as friendly greetings, asking for directions, numbers, and shopping, especially buying food and supplies to survive. 

4. Money: The most important factor in travel is money.  Remember that when you go to any country, you need to know the value of the currency, so that you won’t be cheated when you exchange your currency.

5. Highway and street maps: As we are not familiar with the routes of each country, we should plan the route in advance or download useful travel applications for the country, which we can study, as well. 

6. Food: Religious and ethnic differences give each country its own national cuisine.  It is not strange to say that, before traveling abroad, we must know the food culture of each country in order to prevent any unpleasant experiences or obstacles during our trip. 

7. Clothing: The weather is the first thing that should be taken into account before choosing clothes to wear abroad. And we must consider the activities and the places we plan to go. 

8. Accommodation: Of course, if we are traveling abroad without visiting relatives or friends who can put us up, we should book accommodation.  Most importantly, we should choose a safe and convenient place to stay. 

9. SIM cards and the Internet are indispensable in this era, where communication is an essential part of daily life.  Therefore, before traveling abroad, it is necessary to know about that country’s communication system and then choose a package that meets our needs.

10. Get your body ready: Above all else, the most important thing is that our body should be ready for the stresses of travel in a new place. We should also make sure that all our personal medicines are easy to find in the carry-on bag.
