Most people may have encountered such situations, even the most reasonable traveler is no exception, that is, after arriving at the airport, or worse, when they return home, they realize that they have forgotten their things in hotels or B&Bs for rent; or maybe they stuffed their electronic readers into the bed and sucked them when they were drowsy, or they hid a formal shirt in the locker, or left their care and home keys in the hotel safe box.

Travel website Explore reports that unless you are lightly packed or wearing a black foot, you will bring at least one or two pairs of shoes when you leave the door; an experienced flight attendant, Esther Sturrus, provides a perfect snoop on the social platform TikTok, which ensures that you don't forget the valuable items placed in the hotel's insurance box during travel. Stulos said that you just need to put a shoe in the insurance box.

This trick is that if you put a shoe in the safe box with a license or key, you will soon find that you have one less shoe when you pack your luggage; this way, it is unlikely that you will forget something else. This move is enough for most passengers because the chance of forgetting to find another shoe is minimal.

However, Explore also reminds that for those who are often time or are very forgetful, putting on shoes may not work; if it is to such a person, there is no need to be a difficult person, just change the method. Their advice is not to put anything in a hotel's safe box or place it in a place you can't see or think of.

For several days or a week, you can only live on your suitcase. Although it makes people feel a little angry, it is also unpleasant to have to go back to the hotel to retrieve your belongings or spend money to send them back. One of the best ways to have a safer option and to never forget anything again is to add a lock in your suitcase if you worry about your care or other valuable items being left unattended, and to ensure that you lock it when you leave the room.
