d195 international travel essentials ✈️

items flying internationally—the right way—is an art form in a sense, a craft that can be honed over time with the age-old adage that practice makes perfect. fortunately, the hundreds of hours i've spent in the air have sharpened my abilities so i always s...

what's in my bag: international flight edition 🎒
the international travel essentials you'll find in my db ramverk backpack for each and every flight, no matter the destination
my nightly eye mask that gets packed for every trip—soft and flexible enough to squeeze into a stuffed bag with deep sockets to avoid kinking my lash extensions
Sleep Eye Shade Cover for Travel, Blue
for some reason these liquid shots put me to sleep much better than standard melatonin pills—and sleeping on a long haul flight is a non-negotiable to hit the ground running when you land
Dream Water Sleep Aid Supplement Drink
the only headphones i can comfortably wear the whole flight—the airpod pro nubs hurt my ears by the end, over ear headphones give me a headache, and the noise cancellation feature is perfect for snoozing when you're not watching movies or listening t...
Apple AirPods 4 Wireless Earbuds
a convenient place to stash the essentials while navigating the airport—your passport is a no-brainer (which you can keep an eye on with the airtag holder) along with printed boarding passes and lugagge tags, local cash, and a pen for any entry docum...
Deziliao Passport Holder, AirTag, Wallet (Brown）
for a long haul flight the ultimate goal is a good night's sleep, meaning rolling up to the airport in a travel hoodie is entirely appropriate. aside from comfort, the key is to find a sweatshirt with an oversized hood to further cover your eyes (and...
Lauweion Women's Fleece Letter Hoodie
if you're worried about an airpod falling out and losing it between the seats (which has almost happened to me before), switch out for proper noise cancelling ear plugs when it's time to drift off to sleep—aka when the melatonin shot you took with di...
Reusable Earplugs for Sleeping Noise Cancelling
a one-size-fits-all plug adapter—don't bother buying the tessan plugs that only work with one type of outlet; instead get a universal adapter you can use from trip to trip, especially if your itinerary involves multiple countries with different plug ...
Universal International Power Travel Plug Adapter
the dry plane air will inevitably dry your skin, lips, and throat out (more on that later), so come prepared with multiple types of moisturization to stay feeling fresh throughout the flight
Vaseline Lip Therapy Advanced Healing 3-Pack
another victim of the dry plane air—your throat (especially if you accidentally fall asleep with your mouth open!). stay refreshed with a water bottle that has a secure lid to avoid spilling in your backpack, and make sure to empty this container out...
Owala FreeSip Insulated Water Bottle
last but not least when it comes to plane moisturization, avoid dry, cracked hands with a thick and creamy lotion to apply prior to deplaning
Diptyque Fleur de Peau - Perfumed Hand Cream
this is an optimistic recommendation because, while i do always bring my kindle on flights, realistically there's a 50/50 i'm even going to touch it. i'm typically more of a music & drown myself in waves of nostalgic from looking through my entir...
Amazon Kindle Paperwhite (16 GB) –
for solo travelers, this is how i snap all my vacation flicks. i've tried other tripod varieties and this is the model i keep coming back to. the body can be expanded as tall as needed and the phone attachment tilted to get the perfect downwards angl...
71" Tripod & Selfie Stick with Remote
luggage and packing 🧳
everything i use to transport my things from here to there—including all the souvenirs i'll inevitably be picking up along the way
i'm a recent convert to packing cubes, but if you're rolling sans checked bags (which is the right way to go), it's incredibly convenient to compress and store all your clothes for a particular destination in one bag—no need to fully unpack at each n...
Expandable Compression Packing Cubes
my holy grail carry-on—somehow this bad boy ALWAYS fits everything i need, even when it's for a week long trip to copenhagen in the middle of winter (which involved a lot of chunky sweaters!). the plastic shell is flexibly moldable with an expandable...
Coolife Luggage Expandable 28" Carry on
similar to the carry-on, my holy grail backpack that has come on legitimately every international trip i've taken. from fitting two laptops to multiple pairs of shoes to every toiletry i own and THEN all the souvenirs i pick up along the way, i don't...
Db Journey Ramverk 21L Laptop Backpack
if i HAVE to bring a checked bag (which i discourage in 9/10 cases), the amazon basics bag unfortunately gets the job done. i've purchased from other brands before, but ultimately the wheels and shell were too flimsy, leading to these pieces of lugga...
Amazon Basics Hardside Large Checked Luggage
