I am a mountain person; therefore, my needs have always been dependent on my trekking needs which are as follows:

- Trekking boots (providing comfort and making the trip easy and convenient to travel in)
Tips for all the wanderlust-ERS out there
- Carry all the necessary equipment or either make a proper travel list so that you don’t miss out on anything important
- Pre-plan the trip 1 month before, and in case you are a budding travel content creator then it’s very important to plan up day-to-day content and topics. So that it becomes easy to manage things on time.
