Sony RX100 VI
This is my #1 travel companion. I take this camera everywhere. I take all the travel pictures you see on the blog with this camera. It is incredible. It takes pictures just as good as my fancy DSLR camera BUT it fits in my pocket! This camera isn’t cheap, but it is definitely worth it to me. It has great zoom, clarity and built-in WiFi. I can take pictures and transfer them to my phone to edit on the fly.
Shacke Pak – 4 Set Packing Cubes – Travel Organizers with Laundry Bag
These packing cubes are life-changing! They keep your suitcase SO organized. No more digging through your suitcase to find socks or the pants you want. They are neatly packed in these cubes. This set even includes a laundry bag. I’ve bought these for everyone I know. I seriously love them!
Travelpro Maxlite 4 25″ Expandable Spinner
I take this suitcase on all my European trips. It is super light and holds a ton of stuff. Perfect for those 10-day trips! It is very durable. I’ve had this particular suitcase for almost two years, and it still looks like new.
AmazonBasics 40W 4-Port USB Wall Charger
This plug is PERFECT for traveling. Just plug all your cords into this one port and you are set. They sell this 4-port and a 6-port charger. It makes charging my phone, camera, portable charger and iPad a breeze!
Portable Charger Anker PowerCore 20100mAh
This portable charger is another MUST for all my trips. It fits in my purse and charges my phone up to 6 times! I never have to worry about my phone dying or finding a plug to charge my phone.
iPhone cords
BUY IT: https://amzn.to/2CqyxSY
I believe that you can never have too many phone cords. I just bought a 10-foot cord. I HATE when the plug isn’t next to the bed. The long cord allows me to plug the charger in the wall and still have my phone next to the bed. I also have small lengths for my Anker. Great gift!
European Plug Adapter
You need adapters when you travel to Europe. I have a bunch of these plugs so I can use my hairdryer and chargers. This isn’t a converter, so any hairdryers need to be dual-voltage or 220V.
Bose Noise Cancelling Headphones
These noise cancelling headphones are AMAZING! I put them in my ears as soon as I get on the plane. It blocks out all that engine noise! I have the corded headphones so I can use them to watch movies on the plane. LOVE these!!! They are definitely worth the money. Makes traveling so much more enjoyable.
Luggage Locks
I have several of these luggage locks. I lock my suitcase and backpack in the hotel room every time I leave. I also usually lock my backpack when I’m walking around the airport. You can never be too safe!
Ring Light
This ring light is great for brightening up dark restaurants for pictures. There are three light levels and it fits in your purse.
Baby Buttercup Travel Hair Dryer
I LOVE this hairdryer. It blows my hair out great PLUS it is dual-voltage. I can use it at home and overseas! Double duty!!! To use it overseas, just make sure to switch the voltage! Otherwise, you will blow it up. This is the BEST travel hair dryer EVER!
Travelon Anti-Theft Cross-Body Bag
This is my favorite travel purse. It has RFID blockers, the straps are slash proof, there are lots of pockets and locks on all the openings. PERFECT! It is large enough to hold everything – ID, money, charger, phone, camera and a bottle of water. Despite being able to hold a ton of stuff, it isn’t overly large. I take it on all my overseas trips!
eBags TLS Mother Lode Weekender
This is my travel backpack. It is HUGE and still fits under the airplane seat. It has tons of room. If you are taking a quick trip, this backpack is all you need. It is expandable, so all your travel souvenirs will fit. There is a space for your laptop. This is truly the last backpack you will ever need. It is magical!
Bose Noise-Masking Sleepbuds
Anyone have a travel friend or partner that snores? These sleep buds will help give you a perfect nights sleep! I just bought them and they are great! You can’t use them for listening to music, they are just to be used with the Bose Sleepbuds app. There are several sounds to choose from. You can even set an alarm to go off in your sleepbuds. These are a MUST if you have a partner than snores!
