Must-have items for Train travel

I frequently travel via train for work. After spending hundreds of hours on a train, here are my top recommendations for what essentials you MUST pack:

1. Tissues - for obvious reasons, plus the bathrooms don’t always have toilet paper.

2. Water bottle - The intercity trains usually do not have a food car, so you need to bring your own drinks and snacks.

3. Battery pack - I’ve drained my phone battery too many times and have learned this lesson the hard way. I charge it fully the night before, plus this specific model also has an built-in flashlight 🙌🏼

4. Charging cables - without these the battery backup is useless. I can charge my phone, laptop, and AirPods with this one charging cable adapter. Plus, it’s small and doesn’t take up much space.
