A Travel-Loving Girl's Spring Solo Trip to Kyoto 🌸 What's in My Bag
A 2-day, 1-night trip to Kyoto.
It's scheduled for next week, starting April 1st.
Today, I want to take a detailed look at the items I plan to bring with me.
First, a few premises.
As I mentioned before, I'll be staying in a single room at a business hotel.
I plan to travel by train.
So, I'm keeping my luggage light and plan to get around with just a backpack.
Since I'll be on my own the whole time, I'm in the mood to not worry too much about dressing up.
The forecast for temperatures is 11-23°C on April 1st and 8-25°C on the 2nd.
It's warm!
I feel like it might even get hot during the day.
But it's still cold in the mornings and evenings.
I think I'm going to have trouble deciding what to wear.
Starting from the top left and going counter-clockwise.
Spare masks. Hay fever is my enemy, so these are essential.
Salonpas. I walk a lot when I travel, so these are also essential for me.
My regular medications. Allergy medicine, headache medicine, and stomach medicine.
Disposable toothbrush. It wasn't explicitly stated that the hotel has them, so I'm bringing one just in case.
Wireless earphones and wired earphones. My wireless ones run out of battery if I use them all day, so I'm bringing wired ones too.
A folding umbrella for both sun and rain. G-ZERO. It weighs 99g! It's light, simple, and a favorite of mine.
Change of clothes. Described later.
10000mAh mobile battery. ANKER. I usually carry a lighter 4500mAh iWALK one, but since I'll be out all day and might need to charge multiple times, I'm bringing one with a larger capacity.
Charging cable.
Basic skincare products, etc. Described later.
Makeup items. Described later.
A paperback book. I often bring one thin book with me. For trips, I choose something light like an essay collection or poetry book—something that isn't too difficult and is pleasant to read.
Notebook and pen. For when I want to think things over at a cafe.
Handkerchief
Tinted lip balm
Mobile phone (I'm using the actual phone to take the photo, so this is just the case lol)
Wallet
One serving of enzyme face wash (since it's only for one night, I'm getting by with just enzyme face wash without makeup remover)
Two servings of all-in-one cream
Vaseline
Dermatitis cream prescribed by my dermatologist
Stronger dermatitis cream prescribed by my dermatologist
Two cotton swabs
Earplugs
Spare cartilage earring (I'm in the middle of healing, so if I lose the one I'm wearing and don't have a replacement, the hole will close up)
La Roche-Posay UVidea XL Tint - as a sunscreen and foundation substitute
MUJI Concealer Stick Type - Natural
KATE Eyebrow Pencil BR-5
KATE Designing Eyebrow 3D EX-5
Tinted lip balm: NIVEA Rich Care & Color Raspberry Pink - The color payoff is the best!
KATE Lip Monster 06 - The staying power is the best!
LILAY Free Balm Hair Wax: It's made from natural ingredients, the size is small, and the plastic container is super lightweight, which is the best!
About Tone Blur Powder Pact 01
1 tank top with built-in bra
1 set of underwear
1 pair of socks
1 top (to change into the next day)
1 AIRism long-sleeve shirt (to use as pajamas)
This is what my luggage looks like for now.
I might also bring a drink or add a few more small items.
I think I'll write about outfits suited for the temperature another day.
Today was my 54th day of daily posting.
