- Curated for Spain, Summer
- Checked against program packing guides
- Sold by Amazon and brands
Required12
Tick I have this on anything you already own. Unticked rows still need to be bought or packed.
- Carry-on. A taxi, a metro card, and food for the first days, before you have found an ATM you trust. Get euros from your bank before you fly.Pack from home
- Carry-on, in the original bottles, with a note from your doctor for anything prescribed. Bring the whole stay if you can; your exact med is not guaranteed in a Spanish pharmacy.Pack from home
- If the checked bag lands a day late, you still have a clean outfit for orientation. Roll it into the small packing cube.Pack from home
- Long walks between sights. Clean everyday sneakers or flats you have already broken in. Locals save running shoes for the gym.Pack from home
- Spanish summer sun is fierce. Bring these from home; buy sunscreen after you land so it is not in your liquids bag.Pack from home
Nice to have6
Tick I have this if you already own it. Add remaining items to your bag.
- Locals dress up a notch, even for class: no sweats or gym clothes on the street. Add one going-out outfit (clubs turn away sneakers and T-shirts) and one that covers shoulders and knees for churches.Pack from home
- A US-only dryer or straightener burns out on Spanish current, and a converter only delays it. Bring one marked 100–240V or buy a cheap one in Spain.Pack from home
Insurance and an eSIM

Buy it before you land so the map and your arrival instructions work at the airport, not after you find Wi‑Fi.
