The arrival of monsoon in several parts of the country has brought much-needed relief from the scorching heat. As the monsoon arrives, it becomes important to keep in mind certain things if you are a frequent traveller. The drizzling season can pose a variety of challenges while travelling. Therefore, here are some things that you must keep in your travel bag to avoid any inconvenience and enjoy your trip to the fullest.
Essential For Travelling In Monsoon
1. Waterproof Bag
A waterproof bag is a must in your backpack when travelling in the rainy season. It will not only protect your essentials from water damage but will also keep your things dry and safe. They are lightweight, easy to carry and extremely useful in wet weather conditions.
2. Waterproof Boots And Socks
When travelling during the rainy season, you must keep a pair of waterproof boots and socks in your bag. They help in keeping your feet dry, comfortable and protected from water-borne bacteria. Moreover, they help you stay warm and dry and lessen the chances of getting cold feet or frostbite.
3. Boot Fresheners
Rainy seasons can lead to stinky shoes, which is why you would need boot fresheners in your bag. They not only help you get rid of foul smells but also help get rid of sweat and moisture in no time. They are used to absorb sweat and moisture from your shoes and feet and remove odour.
4. Ultralight Raincoat
One of the most important things that your bag should have during monsoon days is an ultralight raincoat. You never know when it will rain, therefore to be on the safer side, always keep a lightweight raincoat with you to avoid getting wet in the rain.
5. Flashlights
When planning a trip during the rainy season, never forget to keep a flashlight with you. Monsoon lead to frequent power cuts due to heavy wind and rain, therefore keeping a flashlight or torch handy can help you in dark places.
