I'm pretty sure the airlines won't let you fly without a passport. Don't know
about cross-Channel ferries but I'm pretty sure Eurostar require a passport,
too. EasyJet took my passport number before they'd even let me book the flight.

I've been informed that what I said below isn't actually true; European ID
cards are indeed accepted as valid ID in the UK (and other non-Schengen EU
countries). Please disregard!

What Samat says is only true for Schengen-area countries; if you are travelling
from (for example) the United Kingdom, you will need a passport. They will not
allow you into the Schengen area without it.
Though I imagine most of the Brits here will know that already. :)

As I know:
Inside the EU you should bring with you your official identity card (released
by one of the EU country) OR your passport.
If you arrive from outside the EU or you would like to cross the border of the
EU, you need your passport.
Special case is Switzerland (not member of the EU), which is only few km from
Esino Lario. For EU citizens, ID card or passport is required to step into
Switzerland.
Best,

Dear allyes. All the accommodation in Esino Lario have sheets and towels. We
only have a building (scout centre ex-ristoro) for which we request a seeping
bag or sheets, but it is a building we are using for some of the volunteers, in
exceptional cases and we have already informed people about it.
yes. In general there are no private bathrooms.Please bring your toiletry (you
can also buy it in the shops of the village which will be open everyday June
22-27 with different longer times but more or less from 9 to 8) and your
hairdryer if you need one (with the necessary adapter). I suggest you also to
bring some warm cloths (sweater, jacket, umbrella and shoes for the rain - we
expect 15-20 degrees which commonly is not very suitable for flip-flap), your
adapter if needed, and some euro for taxi (taxi almost never accept visa), for
your personal expenses and as deposit for your key if you are in Esino. There
is a bank and ATM in Esino Lario but it can be quicker to change or to withdraw
money at the airport or at the Milan railway station.
To accelerate the registration please prepare for us1. a printed copy of your
registration code 2. a printed copy of your passport3. if possible 10 euro as a
deposit for your key (only for people staying in Esino Lario; we will not ask
it to everyone but if you have it ready makes things quicker)
thanksiolanda

Hi,
As I am preparing to leave, I was checking a few basic things, which I couldn't
find in the documentation. Maybe it is obvious, or I overlooked it - apologies
in that case.
I was wondering what exactly is provided for in the accommodation. It's shared
and simple rooms, probably with shared bathrooms etc. Could you confirm it's a
cheap hotel-like setting, where bed sheets, towels etc are provided for? It
would save me luggage, so that would be great :) And am I correct to assume
that toiletries are available somewhere in the village if need be?
Thanks for confirming!
Hmmm. According to the "Getting Ready" page[1], if you are assigned to a
guesthouse or flat, they will provide bedding and towels. I think it would be
safe to assume the same for hotel rooms (although it is not specified).
However, there is specifically no mention of whether one needs to bring
bedding/towels for the "specialty lodging" (dormitory). This was one of the
reasons I wanted to know where I was staying, because I would have asked this
very question myself if I'd been assigned to "specialty lodging". Risker/Anne
