I have just found out i'm off to Spain to work for 6 weeks - staying in a hotel. This is my first real time moving out as such as i'm 18 and i'm in a panic as to what I will and won't need. I have all the basics sorted like clothes but I don't know what else as 6 weeks is a lot longer than my 2 week holidays! Any ideas as to things I could easily forget but would come in very useful?

Phone numbers Addresses Extra pajamas Medication Cell phone charger Proper Identification Batteries Spanish dictionary Umbrellas Walking Shoes Foreign Language Phrase Books Sunscreen Backpacks Sunglasses Camera Video Camera Shower cap Locks on luggage There are several important items which you shouldn't leave for Spain without, the most obvious being your passport (or ID card) and travel documentation. Take photocopies of your passport, travel documentation, insurance, tickets and credit card numbers and keep them separate from the originals (or send the details to a secure email account) in case they are lost or stolen and you need to give this information to the police. In Spain it is a legal requirement to carry some form of identification - this can be your passport or another form of photographic ID. Before leaving for Spain make an appointment with your GP to check whether you need any vaccinations or boosters for your trip. It is also a good idea to visit your dentist for a check up - the last thing you want is toothache or other dentistry dramas disrupting your trip to Spain. Have a safe trip to Spain.

Camera may be useful, you will love Spain. What city are you going to?

Well, not sure where you live now but if coming from USA you will need one of those electrical outlet convertors. How about a towel ((beach))? Alarm clock?

everything seems to have been covered so far, but I would just like to add that the clothing that you bring should reflect all weather conditions - not just the blazing Sun - especially if you are coming before the end of April, otherwise you are likely to get caught out. If you are bringing a cell phone from home ask your service provider if you can pay a small monthly surcharge for 50% off your international calls as this will save you a small fortune, or if you are feeling brave don't bring your cell phone and instead buy a pre-paid phone card as these work out quite competetive.
