🌍 Travel checklist: Essential items for traveling to Spain and Portugal in October
📱💻【Communication devices】
Europe-wide SIM card + portable WiFi to ensure navigation and translation apps are always online, no worries about weak signals in scenic spots.
🔌💡【Power equipment】
Dual-pin round plug adapter is a must; Spain and Portugal sockets differ from domestic ones, and hotel front desks may not lend one.
🛂💳【Documents pouch】
Keep passport + visa copies separately, prepare 2 ID photos and Schengen visa insurance, pass customs checks instantly.
👗👟【Clothing】
Light sweater + windbreaker for temperature changes in mornings and evenings; wear non-slip flat shoes as stone floors in places like Alhambra Palace can be slippery.
📸🕶️【Travel accessories】
Foldable umbrella + polarized sunglasses; Mediterranean sunlight is dazzling, and photos inside flamenco shows can have glare.
💊🧴【Health protection】
Stomach medicine for seafood feasts, mosquito repellent patches for southern Portugal wetlands, sunscreen SPF50+ applied generously on exposed skin.

Anti-theft waist bag for cash and credit cards, compression bags to save suitcase space, lightweight foldable shopping bag for souvenirs.
