In response to Aunt’s call, I, Huang V, who doesn’t come home often, shared some must-have items for visiting home. This is just one of many, but also includes my personal experience. For those returning home, getting a train ticket is truly a blessing. After all, buying tickets isn’t easy — it's not just about speed, but also about luck and connections. Why do people love train tickets? They are more affordable than planes and faster than buses. If you can't get a train ticket, consider plane or bus tickets. It's better to have an alternative option.

Jingdong Card
Why recommend Jingdong Card? The reason is simple — fast logistics. Jingdong's logistics are unmatched. Although other platforms also have their own logistics systems, Jingdong offers a much smoother user experience. In first and second-tier cities, the difference may be small, but in third and fourth-tier cities, the gap is quite noticeable. With Jingdong, you can order online and have it delivered directly to your home. The advantage of choosing a Jingdong Card is that it allows your parents to choose what they need at home, which is very convenient.
The starting channel for Jingdong Cards is often thought to be Taobao, but there are other ways too. For example, you can exchange bank points for Jingdong Cards or use Zhang Aunt’s gold coins to get them.
Don’t tell me you didn’t know that your gold coins can be exchanged for Jingdong Cards. The current exchange rate is 10 gold coins = 1 yuan. Want to give more Jingdong Cards to your parents? Don’t hesitate — write more original content and earn more!
Mobile Power
This year, without a power bank, I can't imagine how to survive long trips. There are many brands of power banks, each with its own features. What suits you best? No single one is perfect, only the one that fits your needs. Here are some recommended power banks for those about to start their journey.
Recommended reason: This power bank has an X display for battery level, making it more intuitive than traditional grids. It also supports Micro-USB and Lightning charging ports, a rare feature. Other designs include dual USB output, 2.1A output, and flame-retardant materials that meet civil aviation regulations.
If you're concerned about size, a 1W mAh version is available for a more compact option.
Recommended reason: One of Zhang Damo’s test items. Search for more details if you're interested. It uses Qualcomm QC2.0 fast charging and Power IQ technology for "bidirectional fast charging." It can charge an iPhone 6 up to 3.5 times, thanks to high-quality Panasonic/Sanyo batteries and MPS chips. The aluminum shell feels great and has LED indicators for convenience.
Recommended reason: This isn't exactly a power bank — it's a portable router supporting 4G networks from multiple carriers. It also provides power for your devices when needed. Perfect for group travel, it can support up to eight devices. Why recommend it? Because it's part of the millet ecosystem, well-known for its quality (no need to argue).
Micro Projector
A great item to bring along. I prefer using it at home to watch movies with family. Few people would play videos on a train or plane. The benefit of a micro projector is its portability — it's easy to carry and doesn't feel heavy.
The dimensions of this micro projector are 75mm x 35mm x 75mm, fitting comfortably in your hand. Though small, it has a Rockchip RV2108 chip and a 5000mAh battery, providing up to 2.5 hours of use. It supports wireless connection, allowing you to project from your phone. According to tests, it can project a 40-inch image from one meter away.
When using it, make sure to leave space for heat dissipation. The projector has active cooling, so you might hear a faint fan sound when it's running. If placed more than 15cm away, it should be almost silent. You can check out my original post for more details (I know you’re lazy, so I’ve taken a screenshot for you).
Although micro projectors have limited hardware, they are still suitable for watching TV programs. When using them, avoid bright lights — dim lighting gives a better visual effect.
Multipurpose Data Cable
Why buy a single cable when you can have a multipurpose one? Apple and Android users both need different cables, and a power bank requires another. Instead of carrying three cables, why not get a three-in-one? A 1.5-meter cable is sufficient. Longer cables increase resistance and line loss, so it's better to keep it under 2 meters.
Neck Pillow
A must-have for any trip. There are so many options, but I recommend one that offers great value for money.
Recommended reason: This Beijing-made pillow is carefully selected, similar to NetEase's standards. Netease's strict selection process ensures quality. The materials are food-grade micro-particles, the fabric is Xinjiang Tianma cotton, and the buckle is imported from Japan. It works even in -25°C, perfect for cold regions. Priced at 69 yuan, coupons can help you save more.
PS: If it's out of stock, search online for similar neck pillows. Prices are similar, but the logistics service may vary between JD and SF Express.
Emergency Toilet
One of the hardest parts of a coach ride is finding a toilet. While men can manage, women often struggle, especially on long-distance buses. An emergency toilet solves this problem. It comes from the island side, showing the creativity of the locals.
FlashAir Wireless Memory Card
It's not just about being trendy, but not everyone has broadband at home. Many families don’t install broadband, so even if you go home, you can’t access the internet easily. If you take photos, how do you upload them? Using OTG is inconvenient.
Toshiba's FlashAir card solves this. It's an SDHC card with WiFi. You can connect via a dedicated app to view and save photos on your phone or share them with friends. It meets photographers' needs and makes social media updates easier. For more details, check out my original article.
Black Duck
If you ask me why, I can only say, "I like to eat." Besides black duck, some portable snacks are also worth trying, but I won't list them all here.
Electric Toothbrush
If you eat too much, you'll need to brush your teeth. Can you brush on a train? Mouthwash is an option, but it might not pass security. Electric toothbrushes are safe and don't require checking. The MICA Sonic electric toothbrush has a 700mAh battery, lasts 18 days on a single charge, and is safe to use on trains.
This sonic toothbrush uses advanced vibration technology, with 31,000 beats per minute. It's waterproof, seamless, and uses DuPont StaClean bristles for a healthier brushing experience. If it's too expensive, you can try Dr. Bei's model for 39.9 yuan, which is also a great choice for travel.
I've already listed a lot of must-haves, but I hope these recommendations match your taste. After all, going home and having a good time is no small thing.
