🌎 Travel Preparation:
📞 SIM Card: Buy a U.S. SIM card in advance to stay connected with family and check maps 🗺 right upon arrival—convenient and reassuring.
🔌 Plug Adapter: The U.S. uses 110V flat plug sockets, so bring an adapter or your phone and camera won’t charge.
📄 Documents: Passport and U.S. visa are must-haves! It’s recommended to make copies and store them separately, plus keep electronic backups on your phone for extra security.
🧥 Warm Clothing: February is very cold! Pack down jackets, hats, scarves, and thermal underwear. If you plan to play in the snow, bring anti-slip boots.
🔋 Power Bank: Taking photos drains battery fast! Carry a high-capacity power bank to keep your phone and camera online anytime.
💊 Common Medications: Bring cold medicine, stomach remedies, and band-aids. Buying medicine in the U.S. can be inconvenient, so better safe than sorry.
🎒 Daily Essentials: Thermos, sunglasses, small backpack, and don’t forget sunscreen—it’s bright on sunny and snowy days alike.
