Below is a list of the minimum items you need to bring when traveling domestically as a couple.
Some stores and facilities at your destination may not accept electronic payments, so it's a good idea to have cash on hand.Use a cash card when you end up using more cash than you expected.A credit card is a great option when you need more money than you expected while traveling (e.g. if you want to eat at a fancy restaurant or buy an expensive souvenir).
Mobile phones and smartphones are used not only as a means of communication, but also for a variety of purposes, including smartphone payments, presenting two-dimensional barcodes on tickets and coupons, and taking videos and photos.Don't forget to include your charger.ID may be required at your destination, such as when renting a car.You may need to visit a medical institution if you become unwell or injured, so it is a good idea to bring your insurance card with you.
If you regularly wear contacts or glasses, or if you take medication, don't forget to bring them with you.If you tend to get upset when the environment changes or get motion sickness, don't forget to bring your regular medicine with you.
It's a good idea to have an extra set of underwear and socks.Not only can socks be layered when it's cold, but they can also be worn when you want to avoid going barefoot at a store where you take off your shoes.
Makeup tools and toiletries are often provided at hotels and inns, but they may not be suitable for your skin, so it is best to bring items that you are used to.
When planning an overseas trip as a couple, be sure to prepare the following items in addition to the items you bring for your domestic trip.
Visas are usually issued by the consulate of the country or region you are traveling to, but they may also be issued at your local airport.The necessity of a visa varies depending on the length of stay and purpose of travel.It may take some time for it to be issued, so make sure to check it first when traveling abroad.In the case of the United States, including Hawaii, for general travel or short-term business for less than 90 days, you can apply for an ``ESTA'' instead of a visa. You must apply for ESTA up to 72 hours before departure, and you will need your passport number, so if you have not yet obtained a passport, please get one first.
There are quarantine procedures required when returning to Japan, but if you complete the "Fast Track" procedures in advance, you can smoothly pass through airport quarantine upon returning to your country. The procedure is to complete the quarantine procedure on the website "Visit Japan Web," answer questions about your physical condition, and upload your passport and vaccination certificate.The Fast Track review process takes several days, so it's a good idea to complete the process before you depart.
Overseas, the shape of the power plug outlet, plug thickness, and voltage vary depending on the country and region.Don't forget to prepare and bring a power conversion plug suitable for your destination.
In the unlikely event that you lose your passport overseas, you will need proof of Japanese nationality in order to return to Japan. Just in case, prepare a copy or extract of your family register issued within the last 6 months, a document that proves your Japanese nationality, and a photo taken within the last 6 months.
In addition to the above, the following items are must-haves for men when traveling as a couple.
Wet tissues can be used not only for wiping your hands and mouth when eating, but also for cleaning dirty tables and chairs, dusting the inside of your car, etc.For etiquette, it's a good idea to have sweat care goods on hand.
If you leave early in the morning, you may notice your beard in the afternoon, or the razors at your accommodation may not suit your skin and you may get razor burn.Having an electric shaver is convenient because you can quickly take care of your beard during your free time or when you're on the go.
A large-capacity mobile battery is useful not only for yourself but also when your girlfriend's smartphone battery is about to run out.
Below is a list of items that women should bring when traveling as a couple.
If you suddenly get your period while traveling, you may not be able to find a convenience store or drugstore right away depending on the location.It's a good idea to keep the sanitary products you normally use, painkillers, and other medicines in a small bag.
Rooms in hotels and inns, as well as on airplanes and trains, tend to dry out easily.Bring a small container of highly moisturizing cream with you so you can use it right away if your skin is feeling dry.
Even in the summer, it can be cool depending on the destination, time of day, and weather.There may be times when you feel cold because the air conditioning in shops and vehicles is working well.Having a cardigan or other layered fabric on hand will make it easier to regulate the temperature.
Although it is not mandatory, here is a list of things you may find useful when traveling as a couple.If you have room in your luggage, be sure to pack it.
You will be using your smartphone more often than usual, such as taking pictures or looking for places to go, so having a mobile battery is a good idea.If you have a camera other than your smartphone (such as a single-lens reflex camera), you can preserve even more beautiful memories of your fun trip.
Bringing disinfectant supplies such as alcohol spray and tissues will help you when the place you visit doesn't have disinfectant available.If you bring a compression bag with you, you can compress your clothes before you leave and reduce your luggage.However, keep in mind that it is not suitable for shirts and bottoms that wrinkle easily.
If you have card games such as playing cards or UNO, you can enjoy playing games together at night.With a guidebook, there is no need to search for places to eat on your smartphone.It will be more secure if it includes a map and information on popular spots.If you bring a selfie stick, you can take pictures as a couple.
Having an eco bag that can be compacted and carried is also useful when you have a lot of luggage or when you want to separate your luggage.
Here are some things you don't need to bring when traveling as a couple:
Since we generally don't do things like listen to music or play games alone when traveling as a couple, we don't need earphones or game consoles.Using a computer can be helpful if you can't get your work done, but when you're enjoying your trip, you won't have time to open it and it will end up in your luggage.
Moving around can be difficult if you are carrying large bags or bags. If you are traveling for 1 night or 2 days, we recommend avoiding large suitcases and packing your bags in a smaller Boston bag or tote bag.When traveling for sightseeing, wearing shoes that are difficult to walk in, such as high heels, can make walking tiring.It's understandable that you want to look stylish when traveling as a couple, but be sure to choose shoes that are comfortable to walk in, such as sneakers.
Below are some tips for keeping your travel belongings organized and compact.
Please use it when packing before a couple's trip or when you have more luggage during your trip.
If you want to enjoy a couple's trip with less luggage, we recommend using glamping facilities.Amenities such as towels and nightwear are already provided, so you can travel with only the minimum necessary items such as a change of clothes.Items necessary for making bonfires and camping meals are also available, and there are also plenty of outdoor activities that you can enjoy empty-handed.
The appeal of glamping facilities is that you can not only choose a facility with tourist attractions nearby as your base, but also enjoy a variety of ways to enjoy the facility, such as saunas, pools, hot springs, and outdoor activities.When you are unsure of where to go on a couple's trip, why not consider glamping facilities?
