Travel Documents:
Scan your passport before you leave -- e-mail it to yourself in the event that you lose it...you can go to any internet cafe and reprint it and take that to the US consulate.

You must Pack:
If you go somewhere humid take baby powder to dry off your legs to prevent chafing.

Student ID:
Bring you student ID for discounts. A lot of places will only accept your student ID if it has an expiration date, so if your ID doesn't’t have one, you might consider getting and ISIC card.
