European travelers forget toothbrush when packing
London - Arab Today

What do Europeans put in their suitcases when packing for a last-minute weekend getaway? Lastminute.com recently sought to answer this question in a survey. Judging by the results, the answer seems to vary according to nationality.
Respondents were asked to choose only 10 essential items to pack in addition to their passport, money and credit card. Interestingly, a toothbrush was the most commonly chosen item across all of the five nations in question, despite being relatively easy to replace in most destinations. A smartphone, a camera and clothes followed close to the top of the list in most nations. But for the rest, Europeans seemed to make very different packing choices depending on which nation they hail from.
For example, Spanish and French travelers were the most likely to remember their underwear when packing for a weekend trip (70.1% and 59.6% respectively), contrasting with Italians (12.4%) and Britons (39.6%).
Another notable difference between French and Italian travelers was seen in the footwear department: over 40% of French travelers chose to bring a pair of extra shoes in their suitcase, compared to less than 10% of Italians.
Germans revealed their preparedness for cooler climates: 22.3% named socks as one of their essential items, compared to just 6.3% of Italians. Also, 22% of Germans made sure to pack pajamas, compared to just 9.6% of Britons.
Around a third of British respondents said they would pack sunscreen, an item chosen by only 12.9% of Italians, who are probably more accustomed to the sun.
Speaking of stereotypes, Italians and Spaniards emerged as the continent's most "caliente" travelers, or arguably as its safest. While only 9.7% of Europeans overall chose condoms as one of their essentials, the figure was close to 20% for Spaniards and nearly 15% for Italians.
The survey was carried out online in late March for Lastminute.com by OnePoll. The results are based on responses from a total 5,000 adults (1,000 per country) from the UK, Germany, France, Spain and Italy. Participants were selected according to the quota sampling method.
