TIPS & TRICKS
FOR A PEACEFUL JOURNEY WITH MUJI
Every journey is an infinite source of experiences, discoveries and wonder. To help you make the most of them, MUJI offers a 4-step approach to the art of minimalist, useful packing. So that you can enjoy these precious moments in a relaxed, simple and fulfilling way.
Pack
It all starts with a packing list for holiday and the right luggage. In order to carry all your essentials, MUJI recommends you choose a solid, roomy, and lightweight suitcase with an adjustable handle, a wheel brake and silent wheels, so you can go anywhere without a hitch. Pack your belongings in decreasing order of size: your shoes and clothes in packing cubes, or even in compression bags to save space, and the remaining small items in a smart organiser. Go for a water-repellent backpack with reinforced straps to keep what you need within easy reach, plus a few last things in the front pocket of your suitcase. Useful tip: don't forget to include a foldable bag there - you might need it to carry something unexpected along the way.
Travel
When it's time to head for the station or airport, make sure you have everything you need to avoid stress and guarantee a pleasant journey. Your passport is well protected in its case, your luggage is carefully labelled, and everything you need is safely stowed in your bag. Wearing comfortable clothing, with a soft cushion and a sleeping mask for a refreshing nap, settle into your seat and daydream about your destination. MUJI’s travel packing tips also recommend a toilet bag including a compressed face mask, folding mirror and compact hairbrush - now you've got everything you need to arrive in the best possible condition.
Settle In
Once you're at the hotel, arrange everything so you can enjoy a stress-free stay. To feel right at home, make sure all your holiday essentials are there: your beauty products in travel-size bottles, pots and tubes, your travel size skincare, your toiletry bag that you can hang up and unroll so you can find everything at a glance, as well as your pillboxes, make-up travel accessories, folding clothes hangers, portable shoe horn, vegan face bar, sewing kit and lint remover. All you need to do is diffuse a few relaxing essential oils before heading out to experience the best moments of your getaway.
Explore
Ready for adventure? Discover the area without unpleasant surprises by covering up in soft, cool touch, breathable clothing, and packing your bag with a travel wallet containing only the essentials for holiday. MUJI provides everything you need to keep your excursions and visits running as smoothly as possible: depending on the weather, a folding umbrella, a packable water-repellent jacket, a water bottle to keep you cool or a hat to shelter you from the sun, as well as notebooks and pens to jot down practical information, draw an inspiring landscape or write your impressions on paper. Put on some comfortable shoes, and set off to create some wonderful memories!
