How to Travel Light If Visiting India?

You are now ready to travel to India. You don’t want to miss any of your important travel assets. Oh, your bag looks heavy. How can you carry such a heavy bag and travel across India, walk past its bustling markets, streets and sidewalks? No, no, it seems to be pretty messy. You need to think again before packing your stuff. As you travel light, there is possibility of exploring and covering more destinations or just purchasing unique stuff and bring them back to your country.

Here’s how you can travel light if you are planning a holiday in India.

·         Firstly, pick a not-so-big bag. A duffel bag does not give you ample space. So, you have now limited space to put in only important items.

·         If your India tour involves a lot of outdoor activities, go for a pair of durable shoes. Make sure they are light. Also, pack flip-flops for the bathroom use.

·         Same attention is also given while packing clothes. Clothes should be packed according to the season. Again, light weight dresses. Don’t just follow what others have been following for years when it comes to packing your clothes. Get a bundle wrap. It will help creating more space for other essentials. You should not fold and stack them one atop another. Consider taking extra clothes if you holiday activities hover around the Himalayan ranges. Long sleeved T shirt, trekking boots, coats, boots and sweaters are a must pick.

·         You are a serious photographer and you cannot take the risk of leaving your professional camera. Well, carrying a camera won’t make you feel heavy. DSLR or Semi-DSLR cameras come with all a camera bag so that you can carry camera accessories like battery, charger, extra memory card if you need and the likes. Why would you need to carry a big camera when a digital camera can do the wonders? Digital camera is pretty light when you trek or go hiking.

Even if you want to carry other stuff and still want to travel light, then you should consider seeking help of tour and travel operators. Tours and travels from USA are a great option and advantage. Plan your trip right from your own country, come and explore India’s width and breadth and return with many unforgettable memories and items that you cannot acquire in the USA.
