Brussels - What to Pack - Clothing and Supplies Tips

It's always a good idea to compile a location-specific packing list when preparing for any trip. The following is a comprehensive packing list for Brussels. You'll want to personalize it, of course, but you'll get a good idea of what you'll want to bring on your trip.

When it comes to clothing in Brussels, your best bet is to be prepared. Weather and temperature can vary from quite warm to very chilly, often in the same trip. Rain and wind are also possibilities, depending on the time of year you are visiting. It's best to bring layers. Here are some must-haves:

This list will depend on your personal preferences, but here's a rough guide to start with:

• Double-check that you bring all chargers needed for laptop, tablet, smartphone, cameras, and ereaders.
• Pack extra memory cards for your camera; they are small and don't add weight, so you're better off erring on the side of bringing too much.
• Same goes for extra memory for your smartphone. You'd be surprised how fast they fill up when traveling, especially if your phone is your primary camera or if you're shooting video.
• If you're bringing an SLR camera and trying to choose between lenses, consider bringing one wide-angle lens and one good telephoto.
• A point-and-shoot camera if you don't want to carry a bigger camera.
• Don't forget to bring some type of power bank and the appropriate power converters, too.
