It goes without saying that you should pack items that will hold up over time and make it easier to navigate through your travel plans. We made a list of a few lightweight yet necessary travel essentials for women. If you are planning a trip, check the list to make sure you have them all handy. Travel Essentials For Women Going on a trip is exciting. The prospect of all the new experiences is sure to get you all worked up. Packing for your travel should not add to your woes. We are enlisting the travel essentials for women that will keep you updated while scampering through any landscape and climate. Backpack A girl (or anyone for that matter) needs her trusty backpack whether she's or just exploring the streets of Singapore. Something lightweight and durable that can protect your gear or items from light rain/snow while also allowing easy access to your travel essentials kit. So, make sure you have the perfect bag for day trips and hikes that can carry all of your gear. We strongly advise you to invest in a light backpack to help you unload your load and avoid sweat on your back. Safety Gear Bring safety gear that is specifically designed to keep you safe when driving for peace of mind. With everything from a safety pepper spray to portable door locks, travel to new and foreign places with confidence. These are our recommendations for safety gear in relation to women's travel necessities. Nearly all doors, including those in motels and rental properties, are designed to work with a portable door lock. Without the need for tools, portable door locks are easily installed in a matter of seconds. Door stoppers are a fantastic backup plan to door locks in order to keep burglars from sneaking into your rental or hotel room. Carrying an emergency whistle is a straightforward but efficient way to request assistance. An emergency whistle can serve many purposes, such as warning off potential attackers and signaling for assistance in unanticipated situations like becoming lost in the middle of the forest. Having an automobile safety hammer comes in handy in the event of an accident or other dangerous circumstance if you intend to hitchhike or spend a lot of time traveling in cars. A few car safety hammers also have concealed blades that you can use to pry open seat belts. Being a woman, safety gear becomes indispensable for most travel needs. It is definitely on the list of travel essentials for women. Internet Access Obtaining internet access to stay online while traveling internationally is akin to discovering gold in the middle of nowhere. An internet connection is probably one of the most crucial travel essentials for women in today's world. Even if you're on vacation looking for a relaxing experience, you still have the desire to stay in touch with your loved ones just to see how they're doing. Also, who can deny the importance of social media? How would you Instagram all of your cool photos and selfies from your trip? And how on earth would you navigate unfamiliar roads without Google Maps? We recommend that you get a to solve all of these issues. This allows you to stay in touch with family and close friends while also keeping up with current events. Clothes Needless to say, you will need a lot of clothes. There will be days when you will go to the beach and days when you will go hiking on your itinerary, so be prepared to dress for all occasions. If you're traveling to Southeast Asia or the Middle East, don't worry about having a complete closet when boarding the flight. There will be plenty of opportunities to shop without breaking the bank. Makeup Travel Kit Another item to make it into the list of travel essentials for women would be a travel makeup kit. We are all aware of the significance of makeup for a woman's travel kit. After all, if you are taking pictures at some of the most well-known landmarks in the world, you need to look stunning. Therefore, we highly advise that you bring a multi-pocket travel bag to organize all of your essential makeup, lotions, and toiletries in one convenient location. It saves time that would be better spent experiencing the great outdoors by making everything easily accessible! Menstrual Kit Periods arrive uninvited and with no regard for your travel plans, so chances are you'll be taking several trips while on or expecting your period. Carrying menstrual cups has lately become a part of the travel essentials for women if you're on your period. It's environmentally friendly, cheap, and apparently comfortable once you get the hang of it. It also saves space in your luggage and eliminates the unnecessary stress of using sanitary pads. Kindle If so, you will undoubtedly be looking to fill the time when you have free time during your vacation by reading some excellent literature. Therefore, we heartily urge you to buy an Amazon Kindle, as it will literally save your life in terms of luggage space during your travels. You don't need to bring along a lot of books because you can access hundreds of e-books on a single, lightweight, portable device. You'll also save money on a Kindle when compared to iPads or other tablets. Power Bank Taking a lot of photos and using Google Maps on your smartphone can quickly deplete its battery. Without your phone, you will be completely lost. Therefore, a small power bank with a large battery life is among the travel necessities for women that we suggest. Skincare And Hygiene Kit With travel-sized hygiene and cosmetic kits, you can stay in a minimalist travel mode and rejuvenate yourself while traveling. If you plan to travel and plan to bring items like perfume and makeup on the plane, abide by the TSA's guidelines regarding liquids. Worry about messes with your hair and liquids? One of a woman traveler's best friends is a dry shampoo. Travel-sized bottles of shampoos, conditioners, and body wash are all part of the hygiene kits offered by many cosmetic brands. When traveling, make sure to maintain your skincare regimen. Use moisturizers and face mist to stay hydrated. Use face wipes and cleansers to keep your skin clean from dirt. When traveling for extended periods of time, pack a feminine wash or even feminine wipes as quick refreshments. There are numerous small and convenient options for beauty kits at a variety of price points. Pick any of your choices. Shoes Similar to clothing, wearing a variety of shoes aids in navigating various terrains. After a long day of traveling hundreds of kilometers, there's nothing better than kicking off your walking or trekking shoes and switching to something more cozy, like sandals or flip-flops. Expert Tips If the concept of minimalist travel appeals to you, the 5-4-3-2-1 guidelines can assist you in determining how many clothes you should pack for a 10-day trip. Plan your clothes in the following order: 5 pairs of underwear and socks 4 breathable tops 3 cozy bottom wear 2 pairs of shoes suitable for traveling Add a hat to finish it off Next, make sure your suitcase or travel backpack fits your necessities properly. Select clothes that are adaptable, simple to combine and match, and have multiple uses.

I stood before the remnants of the South Pueblo walls, looking over the Mission Church on an autumn day last year. Looking at the archaeological site and standing below the blue fall sky, I was transported to the time of the American Revolution.  Further, I could hear the noise of a bustling trade fair with people from the Pecos Pueblo community doing business. However, the historical importance of the park is much beyond its association with the American Revolution. It is also related to the Civil War in New Mexico and the Independence of Mexico.  So, with centuries of human history etched in every corner, the Pecos National Historical Park is an intersection of past tales and nature. To be honest, The Pecos Pueblo and Santa Fe Trail were the biggest highlights for me when I was at the national park.  Therefore, my ode to the park will start with brief accounts of these places. Then, I will talk about the Glorieta Pass, again a site of historical importance in the park. Finally, you will have a quick look at the park's wildlife.  Pecos National Historical Park: A Land Of Historic Wars And Revolutions  The history of human lives in the Pecos National Historical Park goes back to the Preceramic Period or the 11,500 B.C.E. - 600 C.E. However, the Pecos Pueblo site in the park became a prominent place in the history of the American Revolution in the Early Colonial and Pre-Revolt era.  Spanish people started interacting with the Pueblo people. Further, thanks to the Franciscan Missions, the Spanish rule wanted to have command over the economic life and beliefs of the Pueblo people.  Thus, the first seeds of the American Revolution were sown. To combat the oppression of the Spanish people, the Pueblo Revolt took place on 10th August 1680. As a result, the Spanish Government and Franciscan Friars were expelled from the southwest under the leadership of  Po’pay from Ohkay Owengeh. The Spanish Mission Church, built in 1625, was also destroyed in the revolt of 1680.  However, in 1692, the Spanish People further reclaimed the Pecos Pueblo and many other pueblos. Finally, the Pueblo people declined in numbers in 1700. Before, during, and after the first American Revolution, The Pecos Pueblo emerged as an important location with significant events around it!  Further, around 200 years later (1821-1846 C.E.), another site in the park, the  Santa Fe Trail, witnessed travelers, settlers, and everyone else passing through it. The trail was opened in 1821 after Mexico gained its independence from Spain.  The remains of Pecos Pueblo stood there! By the 1830s, the migration of the Pubelo people was complete, and everyone had shifted to the Pueblo of Jemez and continued their traditions.  Moreover, in 1862, there was the “Battle of Glorieta Pass.” On 26th March 1862, this battle between the Union forces and Confederates occurred at a 700 feet elevation.  The Pecos Pueblo Site Today  https://www.instagram.com/p/Cto5MWnS5Oa/ The rise of the Pecos Pueblo site occurred between 1350 C.E. and 1838 C.E. The Pueblo site had two units, the north and south, and could accommodate around 2000 people. Further, it had 1000 rooms. Therefore, Pecos Pueblo thrived as a busy trading center with trade fairs involving people from Rio Grande Pueblos, Plains Nations, the Gulf of Mexico, and the Pacific Coast. The flint arrowheads and shells found here explain the expansive stretch of the route.  Nevertheless, with time, Pecos Pueblo became instrumental in eliminating Spanish oppression and rule. Still, a drop in the trade, Comanche attacks, and diseases deserted Pecos Pueblo. By 1838 C.E., the last resident of the Pueblo had left and joined the Pueblo of Jemez.  Today, the site stands as a relic from the past. However, it is still equally important for archaeologists and historians.  The Santa Fe Trail  Do you know what the Santa Fe Trail marker near Kozlowski's Trading Post says? It says,  Santa Fe Trail 1822-1879 Marked by the daughters of the American Revolution and the Territory of Nex Mexico.  With the independence of New Mexico and the western territories becoming an annexure to New Mexico, the Santa Fe Trail became the route or passage to the westward movement. Naturalists, journalists, travelers, aspirants, traders, and others took this passage as part of the American expansion. Colonel Henry Inman’s “Stories of the Old Santa Fe Trail,” published in 1881, describes the trail well. If you are a history buff, you must read this book well before visiting the Santa Fe Trail today!  “Kozlowski’s Stage Stop and Trading Post” is the highlight of this trail. You can spend some time here to visualize travelers from the past catching some rest after a long journey through the trail. When on the trail, you can explore the remains of the Pueblo and the Mission Church. You can even consider taking a guided tour of the Forked Lightning Ranch.  Glorieta Pass Battlefield Trail  https://www.instagram.com/p/B9xRKctnb3M/ Important Details About the Glorieta Pass Battle1. Reason for Conflict: Union forces and Confederates wanted to control the Glorieta Pass Route through the Sangre de Cristo mountains and the main supply center (Fort Union) for the passage of soldiers and supplies. 2.

Consequence: The Union forces defeat the Confederates as they fail to ruin the Fort Union. Further, the Union forces maintain complete control over Southwest America.  The Glorieta Battlefield Trail is a popular hiking destination today in Pecos National Historical Park. It is a roundtrip loop, and you will have to cover a distance of 2.25 miles to complete your expedition. Further, the unpaved or graveled hiking route makes it moderately difficult for the hikers. In addition, there is an elevation gain of 152 meters.  You have to drive for around 7.5 miles from the main visitor center of the park. You will need to collect a gate code from the visitor center, which is your access code, to open the locked gate in front of the trail.  As you walk through the forest trail, you get to know more about the Civil War in New Mexico. Many infographics are installed throughout the trail, telling you tales from the past. In addition, there are wayside signs and 14 trail markers to explain the history of the battle on this pass in detail.  More About Hiking The Glorieta Pass Battlefield Trail  Time: Around 1 hour Refreshments (Hikers’ Favorites): Pecos Burger at El Maria Bonita (With a lot of meat and a smoky green chilly flavor!) and Chips and Salsa, of course! The Trail Guide you collect from the visitor center already keeps you hooked on the site's history. Indeed, this trail is less about hiking and more about flipping through the pages of the American Civil War in Mexico.  Let’s Hear It From Other Visitors To The Park  “Really nice park. Easy to find and it is free! Inside the visitor center, they had a really great exhibit that followed the pecos overtime. It was super informative and brought a lot more meaning to the actual park. After looking around the exhibit, you can take the trail up and around the park and church. It's amazing that the walls are still there. The view around the park is also beautiful. We spent about 2 hours here.” - Isabelle M. “I really enjoyed this park. My husband didn't care for it but I think it's really amazing what is still here. He thinks it's all recreation and I can't say if it is or not but I know the current Pecos people don't see it that way. It's pretty awesome that it's free to visit and the visitors center has a little museum that's also free! The trail starts near the restrooms. We accidentally started it from the end. But who cares. We saw everything and I recommend checking it out. Native people history is really cool.” - Lydia G.
