items I have been traveling and living out of a backpack for the last year. These are some of the items that have been the most useful
I was a packing cube hater when I first started traveling but once I started using them they CHANGED MY LIFE. Especially once I switched from a suitcase to a backpack. Keeps me so organized and can fit SO much clothing. I like these ones because they...
REI Co-op Expandable Packing Cube Set - Small/Medium/Large
I recommend 1 good pair of sandals. Some people like birkenstocks but I feel like these provide more support and can be worn hiking and on long walks.

Definitely get an adapter before leaving. I did not and had trouble finding one while on the go and ended up having to buy multiple different types for different countries. Save yourself the hassle and cost.
Universal Travel Adapter Worldwide with PD 3.0 USB-C
If I could recommend one thing for travel this is it. Traveling + chronic insomnia usually makes for very rough nights especially in hostel dorms or loud hotels but this is an actual lifesaver. I usually play white noise or sleep music and it blocks ...
MUSICOZY Bluetooth 5.4 Sleep Headphones
Wise has been my favorite for using while traveling. It converts currencies for you and does not charge extra fees. Can get a physical card or use virtual and can be used at pretty much any atm. I tried a few other banks/apps and Wise was the easiest...
Wise
Best eSIM. Super quick and easy to install and I never had any issues with service while using. You only have to download the eSIM once and when purchasing different eSIMs for different countries it will automatically switch when you arrive to the ne...
Saily
Luggage can make or break a trip tbh especially when backpacking or traveling for a long time. I initially had a much larger bag that did not fit properly and regretted it since it was so heavy and uncomfortable and it made traveling so much harder. ...
Fairview™ 55 Travel Pack - Women's Trekking Carry-On Backpack
Definitely need a portable charger. I strongly recommend one with cables attached to save space and trouble having to carry around an extra cord. This one charges fast and lasts a long time. The display is nice so you can keep track of how much power...
Portable Charger Power Bank with cables attached
Microfiber towel is a necessity. A lot of hostels charge extra for towels and this one has worked perfectly. Drys super quick and folds up very small and I love the design options
Personal PackTowl - Quick Dry Towels Camp & Travel
If you are solo traveling this app is amazing for meeting new people and discovering new things to do. You can post an activity you are interested in and people can join or you can join others.

I went along time with out one of these and was so happy I ended up getting one. Makes flights and train rides so much more comfortable. The first one I got was a cheaper U shaped one but pushed my head forward and was not that comfortable. This one ...
Evolution S3® Neck Pillow for Comfort & Support - Cabeau
Ws so nice to have when traveling in Indonesia and Thailand. You can buy cheap rain covers there but they are such a pain to deal with once you use them and they get wet. This jack is so nice, comfortable and folds up for storage
Mac In A Sac
Seemed unnecessary at first but then i realized my passport was starting to look beat up from constantly pulling it in and out of my bag. This one does not any extra bulk and does the job
Passport cover
Definitely recommend a fanny pack, money bag or something that is secure and hands free to access money, passport and phone super easily. I like the thread wallet one since it is cute and good quality. I got a black one so that it would match everyth...
