What an exciting trip to Australia! She is on the other side of the Earth. Everything must be planned in advance for such a responsible trip. So what to take with you to Australia?
The most important
Let's describe an approximate list of things you need. The main thing is the documents. Abroad you always need: a passport (foreign, with a valid visa), a civil passport, copies of these documents, vouchers for tourists. You will definitely need medical insurance (entry is strictly prohibited without it), invitations (if any).
Prepare a list of baggage in advance, especially the customs officers will be interested in weapons, medicines, plant seeds. The list consists of dozens of items, so it's not worth listing everything, it is better to see the current information in official sources. You need to take with you cards for non-cash payments (they can withdraw 15% when issuing cash from an ATM), money (Australian dollars), air tickets. Bring your driver's license, if you have one, just in case.
Useful things you will probably need
On such a long journey, medications (necessarily declared) may come in handy. Prescription drugs must be approved. Choose clothes that are similar to the style of the natives, if you are not used to standing out.
Here's a list of things to consider that might come in handy in Australia:
- Shoes. It should be solid, not entirely new, but a little worn out so as not to pay attention to it. Bring a pair of mid-season boots, considering the cities where you will be traveling.
- Devices you cannot live without (for example, tablet, laptop, phone).
- Chargers (if you have spare, take it too).
- Sunglasses. Never superfluous.
- Clothes with different lengths of sleeves and legs (meaning jeans and shorts, as an option).
- Headgear (if you eat in summer, this is a headgear from the sun, respectively).
- Book or magazine on the road, as there is a long flight ahead.
- Penknife (only short and only in luggage).
- Binoculars (pocket-sized, or use another device for viewing the area).
- Raincoat. It can come in handy, it can be rainy in Australia.
- Notepad and pen (or pencil, whatever is more convenient for you).
- Bathing accessories (both for the beach and for the bath).
- Camera (separate from the camera or camera in the phone / smartphone).
