Analgesics
Ibuprofen, paracetamol, aspirin… whatever your trusted pain reliever is, don’t forget to take it with you, they can always save you from unexpected back pain or the mythical headache.
Sunscreen
Even if your destination is not sun and beach, but especially if it is, sunscreen is a must that you should always carry on your trips. It’s very important that whenever you expose yourself to the sun you protect your skin and thus avoid the dreaded burns.
Personal medicines
If you regularly follow any treatment or take vitamins on a daily basis, don’t forget them!
Thermometer

We hope you don’t end up using any of this but you know… prevention is better than cure!
