Emergency Supplies

Always be prepared! The exception to the 'do not bring anything "just in case"' rule is a First Aid kit. A seasoned traveler and backpacker know exactly what gets put in first: ibuprofen or paracetamol, alcohol swabs, antiseptic spray, band-aids, and gauze. Any medicine a person takes regularly should be included, as well as the basics of a good First Aid kit, such as antihistamine, antibacterial gel or hand wipes, scissors, and safety pins for keeping bandages or gauze in place.

If someone has a sensitive stomach or hasn't traveled abroad before, antacids might come in especially useful! Nobody was ever sorry to have emergency medicine or supplies with them.
