Preparing the suitcase :/

Waiting impatiently for the summer to be over and go to Uni, new city, new country, new people…well, that day comes and most of you have no idea how to prepare the suitcase…
I am coming from Bulgaria which is so far away from here and the currency is completely different and everything here was double more expensive than in my own city…so I took everything I can think of! Big mistake!! Well, it is not so bad but you have certain allowance of the luggage you can take when you are travelling by plane, so people do NOT waste your 21kg with taking useless stuff!
Firs of all take both clothes for cold, really cold and for hot. You will wonder why you need clothes for warm weather, the answer is – during the winter in your accommodation you will have your heating on most of the time and because the room is too small it gets hot very fast. I used to wear just a T-shirt in my room winter time! So take something short and light with you as well.
If you are coming from a country from Europe do not forget to take an adapter with you ( the thing for the socket that you put and you can use all your EU applinces) You can also buy it from here! Don`t worry! It cost some 2/3 pounds 😉

If you are a girl I know that you would like to take all your hair stuff like hairdryer or hairstraightener or hair styler but you don`t actually need them, if you don`t have space in the suitcase leave them home and get one from here – you can find really cheap in ARGOS, ASDA or in the charity shops!

I even took with me bed sheets, pillowcase and duvet…those are things that you deffinitely DO NOT need to take with you into your suitcase! You can find cheap from ASDA, Primark or any charity shop!
Other stuff that you can find for 1 pund in poundland are toothpaste, soaps, shampoo, conditioner and so on (even for less than a pond in Pound Stretcher or in Savers).
Do not take any cutlery, pots, plates, bowls etc. you will also find them here on reasonable prices! I took that kind of stuff as well 😀

I think I mentioned most of the things but if I missed something just ask and I will tell you if it worth taking or not. If you would like to know the price of anything ask me and I will check it for you! 🙂
