Packing for Asia
Weather: Always research weather prior to your holiday to inform your packing list. Depending on the region and time of year, Asia can be hot and dry or humid and very, very wet – and you can expect cold temperatures in mountainous regions such as the Himalayas. Travellers to the sub-continent should note that monsoon season hits on the south coast in May and lasts for a month and a half.
Shopping: Everyone enjoys a good shop while they’re on holiday, and whether you prefer local crafts or electronics you’re bound to find plenty to tempt you in Asia. Many airlines charge £10 per kilo of extra luggage, which can amount to a large overall fee if you’re not careful. Why stress? Let Luggage Mule ship your purchases home from Asia – Luggage Mule’s generous allowances mean you can go souvenir shopping to your heart’s content.
Customs: It’s all too easy to fall foul of customs restrictions when travelling outside Europe. Take extra care when in Asia, where rules vary considerably from one country to another. See our Luggage Mule prohibited list for information on what you can and can’t ship.
