Welcome back to the fortnightly Weekend Traveller series where I share tips and strategies for travelling during the weekend so you can travel more using less work leave. You can find all of the previous posts for weekend end travel here.
Today, we will be thinking up a packing list for a 2-day trip.
Now that it’s almost time to leave for your trip, we need to start packing!
Packing for a weekend trip is very easy since you won’t need that much clothes. In fact, for one of my trips, I bought just my pajamas and washed my day clothes and wore them the next say after washing and drying them for the night.

Since all my weekend trips were in Southeast Asia, I don’t need a lot of thick clothing, besides a light sweater for the inevitable cold airplane/train/bus.
Here are some of the things you will need in your backpack for the weekend (besides all the basic underwear):
For city trips:
- Fancy clothes for the night (not that I go out much at night)
For countryside trips:
- Mosquito repellant
- Walking shoes
Funnily, my list of electronics is much longer than my clothing list. For a weekend trip, I would bring:
- Phone
- Phone charger
- Camera battery charger
- Laptop and charger
- E-book reader
