All from brands with proven affiliate support (Anker, Samsung, Soundcore). Honest notes: what it's for, and what to leave behind. Picks are a hybrid of Amazon and official brand stores (Samsung, Anker, Logitech, Soundcore) — all US links, so what you see is what you can actually buy.

No matter how you are traveling, by air, train, cruise, or car, there are some standard items you will need. If you are RVing or camping, there are lots more. I have done all so I can try and help.

If there’s one thing you should take away from this post, it’s that you should probably, at some point in your lifetime, spend much more than 48 hours in Champagne, but given that its capital city of Reims is only a 40 minute train from Paris, getting away for the weekend is extraordinarily easy.

My wife and I are avid RV travelers, having been to eleven states, roughly thirty national parks & monuments, and a myriad of state parks. We absolutely love traveling by RV and seeing this wonderful country of ours. Over the last eight years, we've borrowed one RV from a friend and bought two others, a bumper pull and now a 5th wheel. We've learned a lot of lessons along the way, had some close calls, and had some incredible times on our own and with friends. We've made a number of new friends along the way and have seen things I never thought I'd have the opportunity to lay my eyes on. I've put together this list based on our experiences.

Luang Prabang, the cultural center in northern Laos, blew me away. Situated on the mighty Mekong River, this town is a patchwork quilt of beautiful nature, fresh food, and artisan shops. Laos has put effort to make this town BEAUTIFUL and classy. My guide to Luang Prabang may be a little biased because it holds such a special place in my heart. Surprisingly, the center of the city almost feels like Europe, with tables set up in the street to people-watch while you slowly drink a coffee. The best part of my visit was wandering around the stunning alleyways, peeking in artisan shops and taking in the vibes. Not only is Luang Prabang reminiscent of the ancient Lanna kingdom with its beautiful brown traditional houses against green palm trees, but also in its influence of the French rule — as noted by the laissez faire cafes & best buttery croissant I’ve had in Southeast Asia.

Packing for Morocco and Egypt is a puzzle: riad staircases and Nile cruise cabins want soft, compact bags, souk alleys want hands-free security, and mosques and markets want covered shoulders and knees in 90-degree heat.

Long haul flights, short hops, first class or back of plane - these are my must haves! I was a flight attendant for years and now travel often and have tried it all. I always avoid buying last-minute items at the airport as the prices are so marked up. Also, as someone who finds it nearly IMPOSSIBLE to sleep on flights, trust me when I say my research is thorough.
