I drained my phone battery often using Google Maps to get around. My Belkin portable power bank charger came in handy constantly. I just kept it in my purse!

It was SO satisfying to see how many steps I walked during my travels!

When traveling internationally, make sure you don't forget a power adapter so you can plug your devices in!
Travel Adapter
I was so sad I had to leave my beloved Dyson hair dryer at home so I wouldn't fry it with European voltage. This was a FABULOUS substitute that was small enough to fit in my suitcase easily, and even came with a diffuser attachment!
LURA Mini Portable Travel Hair Dryer, 1200W
I used this constantly to quickly steam my wrinkled clothes. It really came in handy because most of my European hotels did not have an iron.

Having Air Tags in my luggage really gave me peace of mind that my suitcase made it successfully to my destination.

Especially if you have kids, do yourself a favor and get this bag! It fits SO much as a carry-on! It comes in several colors. Don't sleep on adding the Sidekick if you have a kid in diapers - it's the best portable diaper bag, small enough to make di...

The BEST carry on! Set up like a suitcase inside, and small enough to shove under your airplane seat so you don't have to use the overhead bin.

The Hideaway Carry-On Duffel - No Reception Club
The Sidekick makes life SO much easier for diaper changes on the go! Whether you're changing a diaper on a road trip, on an airplane, or just out and about around town, the Sidekick is the best. Now that I'm on my third kid, there's no way I'm luggin...
Best Diaper Bag Fanny Pack - No Reception Club

Worth every penny. It also lasts forever, since it's super concentrated and you don't need much. I use this every night (and during the day when my lips are especially dry), especially when traveling. I did several rounds of Accutane years ago, and m...
