Your headphones aren’t on that list! ;)

Good list. The only thing I would add is “luggage that doesn’t look like anybody else’s”. I’ve had people take my case off the carousel twice now; both times my case was a different colour to their own, but still a really conservative, “normal” looking case. Even the bright distinctive labels didn’t work, and people never seem to bother checking. Now my case is extremely shiny plum faux leather with bright distinctive labels. It’s just this side of tacky but it’s much less likely anyone’s going to mistake it for their own.

I smoke right before bed, and only right before bed which actually helps me sleep somehow. It’s a dumb habit but it beats the insomnia I had when I quit last time.

You smoke? I’m always surprised when people my age smoke, as I associate it with hanging out in bars when I was in my twenties. I do think that I might take it up again when I’m in my nineties, though.

Good list! I keep my list in my suitcase, so I look at it as I begin to pack. I also keep a small umbrella in my suitcase, and a book of crossword puzzles. Oh, and I keep a few sticks of incense in my toiletries bag in case the hotel room stinks.
