THE SUITCASE OF THE ATHLET WHO TRAVELS FOR BUSINESS

29/05/2019

Learning the art of quickly and efficiently packing a basic suitcase, knowing how to envisage everything needed for a work trip that also includes physical exercise, choosing the essentials for combining business and sport – these skills are vital for athletes who need to work without sacrificing their daily workout.

Here is a small guide for travellers intending to combine business with pleasure.

 

NEEDED FOR WORK:

  • DOCUMENTS

As well as passport, ID card and health insurance card, essential items for the trip are credit and debit cards, travel tickets and work materials in printed or digital form.

  • TRAVEL ACCESSORIES

Important equipment for the trip include smartphone and PC or tablet with appropriate battery chargers and any adapters; glasses and sunglasses, a book or ebook reader, USB key, umbrella and essential medicines for emergencies such as anti-inflammatories, antihistamines, plasters, medications for intestinal disorders and milk enzymes.

  • BEAUTY CASE

Accessories needed for personal hygiene like a toothbrush, toothpaste, deodorant, brush or comb and, if not included in the hotel’s courtesy set, also shampoo, conditioner, body wash and body cream. Women may want to remember make-up and make-up remover, beauty creams and a travel hair dryer if not provided by the hotel, while men need to consider shaving foam, razor and nail clippers.

  • CLOTHING

It’s always important to include a complete outfit of clothes and the type of clothing suited to the meetings and the types of days being planned. The suitcase therefore needs to carry formal clothes like suits with shirts and trousers or a skirt, a jacket and smart but comfortable shoes. And for leisure time: jeans, pullovers, t-shirts and vests, without forgetting pyjamas, underwear, socks and tights.

 

SPORTS EQUIPMENT:

  • TRAINERS OR RUNNING SHOES
  • ACTIVE CLOTHES

For any type of physical activity it’s good to wear clothes that are light and comfortable and also preferably thermal, breathable and hypo-allergenic. Your suitcase needs to be carrying the right clothes for the season and climate, for example a sports outfit including tracksuit, shorts, t-shirts and running socks.

  • CAP WITH VISOR
  • LIGHT PUFFER OR RAIN JACKET
  • WATER BOTTLE
  • ELECTRONIC GADGETS

A heart rate monitor is essential for monitoring your performance, and to exercise while relaxing Bluetooth earphones are ideal, practical and don’t take up much room in the suitcase.

When you’ve ticked off the check-list you’re ready for a truly active business trip!
