47. Don’t Forget to Bring Some Zip-lock bags or Waterproof Pouches for Your Important Stuff
Backpacking through Guatemala’s outdoors exposes you to the elements, running you the risk of getting your belongings wet. To avoid ruining your important stuff, make sure to bring some plastic zip-lock bags that you can use to keep things like your passport or wallet from getting wet. Duty-free shops usually sell waterproof pouches which also serve the same purpose, so keep your eye out for those and buy some for your peace of mind.
