So it’s that time of year again. We are at the end of our tethers (out of patience and full of stress) and we need to get away from it all. We organize a get away and then start counting down the months, weeks, day and then hours till we get to escape the daily strife. I myself have just booked my own little get away for June (woohoo!) 🙂
Then the nightmare of packing hits us. The stress kicks in even more ..where do we begin? Have I got everything? What am I forgetting? When I go away I make endless lists and double tick them off but inevitably I ALWAYS forget something! Whether you’re jetting off abroad, braving nature by camping or a self catering holiday, I have made a couple of lists of a few essentials. Not everything is listed ( It would be endless) but the items i’ve put down are just a few of what I thought of to be essential.
