Going on a vacation anywhere has the potential to be a transformative experience that can rejuvenate you and connect you to the world. But this is only truer when you are visiting Puerto Rico, especially as part of the Puerto Rican Diaspora, and even more so for those returning to Puerto Rico for the very first time. To make your trip to Puerto Rico truly memorable and transformative, there are just a few things you will want to bring with you. Here is what you need to bring to make your Puerto Rico trip memorable.
A Notebook
The first thing you will need to make your trip truly memorable is a notebook. You may be shocked by just how much reflection, thought, and introspection you will do when you are visiting Puerto Rico. Being back in the homeland can fill you with any number of emotions that can be difficult to express. Having a notebook with you will allow you to journal and write down your thoughts, what you are doing, and how you are feeling about your time wherever you are. This can be a great tool to help you reflect on and grow from your experiences.
A Camera
No trip to Puerto Rico is complete without a camera to take hundreds or thousands of photographs with. Photos give you something printable to send to your family while you’re away. But more than that, photographs allow you to capture just a fraction of the natural beauty that this majestic island has to offer. From beautiful beaches and oceans, stunning mountains, and incredible foliage that must be seen to be believed. Don’t come to Puerto Rico without a high-quality camera to capture some incredible images of Puerto Rico.
Sunscreen
The final thing that you need to bring to make your trip to Puerto Rico memorable is sunscreen. If you get a sunburn while you are here, you will not have a great time for the rest of your trip. Sunburns are painful, dangerous, and can cause long term skin damage, nobody needs that. Make sure that you have enough sunscreen to make it through your trip unscathed so you can make positive memories rather than negative ones.
A trip to Puerto Rico can be one of the most amazing and memorable experiences of your life. But you must have the right equipment to capture all the memories. Make sure you have these three things before you head off to Puerto Rico for the time of a lifetime.
