What should I bring? What do I leave at home? Do I take this? Do need that? Packing and deciding what to take with us is undoubtedly one of the most stressful moments of any holiday.
The key to packing and choosing what we take with us on our trip, is to be practical. And as we can’t bring everything with us, we’ve selected 5 essential gadgets for all you tech fans.
