It's getting warmer here in NYC and that means travel season is back. My family and I are headed to India for my older sister's wedding and with it being the first wedding in our family, there is almost no end to the things we need to pack along with us for the trip. Here's a list of things to remember to bring along with you when travelling abroad:

1. Plug Adapter

Let's face it: even though it's a vacation, you'll have tons of work to catch up on for school or for your job. So you'll need to have a converter to charge your cellphone and laptop. Make sure you get the right ones for each depending on where you're travelling to!

2. A Big Travel Mug

If like me, you just can't forget the taste of American water for five weeks, then you must bring a mug to drink bottled water from. (You never know if the bottles there are clean or not.)

3. Mints, Gums, Or Some Mouth Refreshments

These are especially important if you experience travel sickness, or don't have time to brush your teeth on the airplane!

4. Earbuds

Hard to find where I'm from in India, but these are the one item that I cannot stand not using after taking a shower. I like knowing that my ears are going to be squeaky clean.

5. Hand Sanitizer

Whether you're eating outside in a restaurant or at home where you're staying, you need clean hands so you don't catch any germs. Happy eating!
