My top recommendations for your next adventure to southeast asia
These packing cubes have been a gamechanger for keeping my suitcase organized and getting everything to fit!
Packing Cubes
A must-have for any southeast Asia trip. Unfortunately the hard water there can cause irritation to the skin and even hair loss. Take a universal shower filter with you to avoid any issues!
Shower Head Filter
This is my go-to bug spray! Thailand mosquito-proof with aloe vera and no unpleasant smell!

Clothing
A couple of easy-to-style pieces you can mix and match on your trip. All are lightweight and ideal for light packers!
I love styling linen pants in the summer. It is a great material for warm climates and can be worn with sandals/sneakers in the day and heels at night!
Linen Pants
Can be styled up or down depending on where you are planning to go! Maxi skirts are very comfortable and the linen material keeps you cool
Linen Skirt
It is important to cover up your shoulders when visiting temples and shrines. Linen or cotton cover ups are great because they are light and breathable while keeping you modest. I also love wearing them at the beach over a bikini!
Cover Ups
Shoes
For trips to southeast Asia you need a pair of comfortable sneakers and/or hiking shoes, a pair of shoes you don't mind getting wet and breathable sandal
