My 6 Day Travel Checklist (10 Month Bf Baby in Tow)

Image
Just got back from my Rishikesh, India trip (15th - 22nd Dec) and it was so chaotic!

Because I have never been so disorganized in my life so I need to make a list so that the next time I travel I can just refer to this list. Main Concept Travel light, 1 small check-in & 2 hand-carry baggage (for 2 adults & 1 baby) 6 degC, dry climate Does not include what is worn on day 0 Day 0 attire: undies + thermal wear + long pants + jumper + outer jacket; socks + covered shoes Day 0 baby attire: thermal wear; socks (shoes just drop off); diapers No baby food because I was bfeeding Clothes Undies x 1 (because I could wash my clothes there) Sleepwear x 1 Outside clothes x 1 set (I wanted to buy new clothes too) [Make sure
