article: Items like toothpaste, shampoo, soap, and most first aid supplies can most likely be bought at your destination. So if you're exceptionally tight on space, plan to make a pharmacy stop once you arrive. Sometimes part of the experience includes something as simple as a trip to the local market to pick up handmade Shea butter with which to replace your usual body lotion. However, if you do plan to do this, researching whether or not you'll be able to find all of your essentials is important to do beforehand. If your final destination is a remote area of Alaska and you plan to buy a toothbrush there, it might be an uncomfortable two weeks. Part of this is also understanding that products in a foreign country might not be exactly what you're used to, but embracing these differences is part of the fun. Most likely, partaking in local food and drink customs is going to be a substantial part of your trip. However, even if you don't plan on eating out at restaurants, or there won't be many where you're going, stopping at a grocery store along the way or once you've arrived is your best bet, rather than trying to pack food from home. Not only will bringing food take up more space and add excess weight, but if it's unrefrigerated, it won't last long anyway. If there is a packaged food you can't live without, remember to leave space for it while you're packing clothing and other items. Be sure to include this in your packing list as well. Bring a collapsible water bottle or plan to buy one at your destination to reuse for the duration of your trip. Consider the weather forecast and location before packing these items. Unless you're going somewhere that has exceptionally rainy weather, such as the Pacific Northwest, the weather forecast during your two-week stay should let you know if it's worth it to bring boots, raincoats, and umbrellas. While nothing is likely to ruin your trip more than being unprepared for a rainstorm, these items also take up a significant amount of space for something you may possibly never remove from your bag. Pack waterproof shoes and a rain jacket that can also double as your regular walking shoes and coat. This means you won't have to waste any extra space for your rain gear, but will still be equipped should it start to drizzle. Travel size umbrellas don't take up much space and can come in handy during a light shower. If the forecast is wrong and it does start to rain, you'll most likely still find a disposable poncho to buy at your destination. Don't plan to just buy extras as needed once you arrive: these usually need to be broken in. Sometimes you don't know if a shoe is right for your foot until you've worn it for a while. Finding out on your trip that the toe portion is too narrow, could put a damper on all that sightseeing you wanted to do. Even the best, most comfortable sneakers are likely to cause a blister or two after extensive wear. So even if it's just a comfortable sandal with ample support, don't be left without an extra pair of shoes. This won't be inexpensive to purchase when you arrive, especially if you're in a touristy area. You won't have planned on packing an extra pair of shoes, which can take up a lot of space on the way back.
