Last night I arrived from Bombay(Sorry Mumbai). I decided to write this article when I was in a train to Mumbai. It was a quick decision from my friend and I had only 6-7 hours left to pack everything for my trip. Everything includes taking dinner and bath and not only packing. So when decided to go to Mumbai I called at home and asked to get everything ready and packed. Still due to a short notice we forgot so many things to bring. Few of them were very important i.e handkerchief, extra socks, pen etc etc. And you realize the importance of this things however small it is when you don't have it. So not only once but many times i thought to make a list of things to pack before any tour, journey or trip whenever i was in a need of something i forgot to bring with me. If i sums up i might have decided to make a list around 20 times.
So here is the list.
Just go through this list before any travel plan. I think i will not have to drop any idea of quick tour now on as I have got the list and no more laziness will be there.
