I tend to stay in hotels rather than chalets/apartments on ski trips and often find there’s no facilities to make hot drinks in the room. Whilst coffee etc is served at breakfast, you often have to pay for it at other times in a hotel or it might not be available. So, now I take a small travel kettle and sachets of milk, coffee, tea and hot chocolate with me - all decaffeinated. I pack all those inside the kettle so it doesn’t take up too much of my luggage space. These things can all be found on Amazon; they’re not always available in supermarkets. Also, it stays fresh without a fridge and between trips. In the past, I have bought ‘fresh’ milk in the resort and kept it on my balcony, windowsill etc. when there’s no fridge in the room. I’m interested to know what else are recommended essential items to pack for a ski trip?
