Call your Credit Card companies now, if you wish to use them abroad

For any traveler intending to use their regular ATM cards or credit cards, you MUST call the customer service lines for each and make sure they note on your account that you will be using these in Italy from 3/13 to 3/21 or else they will flag your account as stolen and you won't be able to use it.

Make sure you have your phone options in order and working. Make sure you have the appropriate converter/adapter (Target has one for $19.99) and make sure you understand when to use what component.

Reminder: one checked luggage, one personal bag for the plane. Please be sure to see the suggested packing guidelines below. The weather will avg. 50-55 degrees during the day and 35-40 degrees at night. Think Layers.
