Eight Essentials to Bring on a Road Trip
Where would you go on your perfect road trip? Will you travel under United States (US) Route 66, or will you pass through Europe? Will it be a long journey along the way, or a short journey to get closer to home?
Wherever you decide to go on your road trip, make sure you plan your route in advance and pack everything you need. You can focus on enjoying your journey and exploring the world. If you are getting ready to go, here are eight essential things you must take on the road trip.
1. Water Bottles
Water is the most important thing on a road trip. You will be driving for a long time and need to be hydrated. Pack several bottles and make sure you continue to deliver.
2. Maps
Physical maps are the second most essential thing you need to keep with yourself during a long road trip. You can’t trust your phone you can’t guarantee that your electronic map device will work all the time – right? Having original maps on hand means you won’t get lost (well, you’re less likely to get lost) and you don’t have to waste time waiting for your cell phone to charge.

3. USB car charger
If you have a lot of electrical equipment with you or you want to use your phone during your travels (to get all these memories, and to update Instagram, of course), a USB car charger will be required. Better yet, get a charger with two ports so you don’t have to argue about who will charge them first!
4. Snacks and food
To keep costs low and avoid the temptation to stop at every fast food outlet, you’ll need plenty of snacks and meals for the long haul! Easily bring snacks such as cakes, breakfast bars, fruit and sandwiches to keep you and your passengers satisfied.
There are many benefits to packing your food, even if it takes up a lot of space, as you can control the nutritional value of your food and be flexible in eating whenever you want. Relying on food provided by roadside cafes means you’ll be stuck with greasy fast food and unhealthy snacks.

5. First aid kit and emergency supplies
Packing a first aid kit and emergency supplies can be the most important task in preparing for your road trip. Depending on the road you are traveling on, if there is an accident or someone gets sick, it may take longer until you can get help. Therefore, in case of any incident, it is necessary to tie the pain killers, bandages, scissors and plaster.
In the event of a malfunction, an emergency kit containing a warning triangle, warm clothing, a torch, a spare mobile phone and some comfortable shoes will keep you safe while waiting for help.

6. Shoe manager
Yes shoe manager, but not your shoes! Hang it on the back of one of the seats and fill it with snacks, books, toilets, electronics and a water bottle. If you have children, this is a great way to keep the car clean and have everything for their fun.
7. A spare car key
You will never know when you can accidentally lock yourself out of the car so, in that case precautionary measures are important and you need to have backups available all the time. Keep your spare key with you all the time, in your bag pack or your pocket in order to avoid any inconvenience.

8. A very good friend
The road trip with a partner is always better, whether it’s a partner, a family member or a best friend. Think of all the great road trip movies. Thelma and Louis, Little Miss Sunshine and the road trip. It’s all about a group of people experimenting the road together. It will not be alone.
Have a nice trip!
