What to take on a weekend trip? We pack the necessary textiles

A weekend trip out of town is a great way to recharge your batteries, spend time with family and friends, and enjoy the fresh air and proximity to nature at the same time. Whether you're planning a trip to the seaside, the mountains or just staying in a cozy cabin in the woods - proper preparation is a must. In this article, we suggest what to bring to make you feel comfortable and enjoy every moment of your May trip - we especially focus on choosing the right blankets and towels that will work well in different travel conditions.

May Day - a time of relaxation and adventure

The long May weekend, or the popular May Day holiday, is one of the favorite occasions for Poles to take a short vacation. This is the perfect time to escape the city and take a break from everyday life. Spring is in full swing, nature is awakening to life, and longer days encourage active outdoor activities. Many people use this time to get away with family, friends or a romantic duo - by the sea, in the mountains, on a plot of land or in an RV. It's also a great opportunity to spend time away from screens and the daily rush, enjoying the moment. The weather can be capricious, so it's a good idea to be prepared for every eventuality - whether it's sunshine, cooler evenings or contact with water on the beach or around the lake.

Blankets - an indispensable item of May luggage

Whether you are traveling with children, a partner or a group of friends, blankets is an absolute must-have for any trip. Why? Because different places and weather conditions require the right textiles - ones that provide warmth, comfort and functionality.

Picnic blankets - practical and stylish

Picnic blankets are ideal for spending time in nature - on the grass, on the beach, or even by the campfire. Their advantage is not only easy use, but also durability and resistance to dirt. Models with a waterproof backing will work especially well on damp ground.

They come in a variety of designs and colors-from subdued to intensely colorful-so you can choose a product that matches your style. Some versions also have convenient handles or carrying straps, making transportation much easier.

What are the differences between travel blankets?

In the offer of our store you will find a variety of blankets - it is worth knowing what the differences are, so that you can choose the best model for your needs:

• Microfiber blankets - Extremely lightweight, compact and quick-drying. Ideal for travel when every gram and inch of space counts.

• Fleece blankets - thicker, giving more heat, but still easy to use and gentle on the skin.

• Sherpa blankets - double-sided, on one side soft as plush, on the other pleasantly furry - great for a camper or cottage as an extra layer for colder nights.

Towels - lightweight, durable and quick-drying

The other key piece of luggage is, of course, towels. Whether you plan to swim in the lake, at the beach, or just freshen up in your RV in the morning, the right towel is of paramount importance for comfort and hygiene.

Microfiber - ideal for travel

Microfiber towels are currently one of the most popular choices among travelers. Why? Their biggest advantages are:

• Quick drying - Even after heavy use, they are ready to be used again in a short time,

• Lightness - They take up little space and are lightweight, making them ideal for carry-on luggage,

• Ease of care - They can be washed in the washing machine without worrying about losing their shape or color,

• Durability - Are resistant to abrasion and stretching, so they will serve for many seasons.

For children and adults - customized towels

During a family trip, it is a good idea to have separate towels for children and adults. It is worth ensuring that children's towels are gentle on the skin of toddlers, and at the same time colorful and visually appealing. For adults, towels of a larger size - such as 70x140 cm - are great for wrapping the whole body after a bath or relaxing by the water.

With the right choice of materials microfiber towels do not cause irritation, are gentle and pleasant to the touch, and are extremely absorbent. It is a good idea to have at least one towel for each member of the family - preferably in different colors, which will make it easier to distinguish between them.

Additional textiles - what else is worth having on hand?

In addition to the classic blankets and towels, it's a good idea to pack a few more items:

• Thermal blanket - especially useful for overnight stays outdoors or in colder regions.

• Travel pillows - ideal for an RV, vacation home, as well as for a picnic.

• Beach towel - larger than a classic bath towel, it will also work well as a blanket for sunbathing.

• Pleats - light and soft, which you can throw over your shoulders in the evening or use as an extra layer of covering.

How to take care of textiles while traveling?

For weekend trips, it is very important that the products are easy to care for. After all, we don't always have access to a full-size washer or dryer.

What to look out for?

• Can be washed at low temperatures - most microfiber products can be washed at 30-40°C, making it easy to keep them clean even when traveling.

• Quick drying - is a feature that avoids unpleasant odors, and also quickly prepares the towel for the next use.

• Compactness when folded - important especially when traveling with limited luggage.

When choosing towels and blankets for a May trip, you don't have to sacrifice aesthetics. In the store lodgers.en you will find products that combine functionality with fashionable design.
