Next, comfortable, light clothing which dries quickly will be very useful to ensure a good trip. Finally, any good traveller will surely do a lot of walking, so make sure you have some good quality shoes. Girls should be advised that tampons are quite hard to find and rather expensive (depending on where you are, of course), so be prepared and have plenty with you. There are several different types of plug socket in China, so get an adaptor to make sure you are always ready.
Things to remember before setting off:
- A very well stocked first aid kit
- Sunglasses and sun cream
- Insect repellent
- Light and fast-drying clothing
- A camera so that you always remember your trip
- Comfortable walking shoes
- A plug adaptor
- Tampons (difficult to find and expensive)
