Travel Must-Haves I Actually Use
8
items After years of overpacking and buying things I never used, I’ve finally nailed down my true travel essentials. These are the tried-and-true items I actually rely on every trip—from carry-on lifesavers to little luxuries that make the journey smoother...
My goal when traveling is ALWAYS to go carry-on only. This bag has smooth wheels and a decent amount of space. It worked well on a recent 3-day trip. Will be using it for a week long trip coming up. I'll report back afterwards to update my review.
Spinner Underseater with USB Port
I bought a microfiber towel like this in 2017 and haven't traveled without it since. It dries fast, sand doesn't stick to it and it folds so flat which means it barely takes up any space in the carry on.
Microfiber Beach Towel
Another towel, but hear me out, it's more versatile than a beach towel. It's a blanket, it's a sun shade, it's a shawl, it's a coverup, it's everything you could ever need. I've had a Teema towel since 2017 and it comes with me on every vacation.

Women's Buck Naked Briefs
The next best kind of underwear after Buck Naked underwear. And sometimes they have cuter patterns too.
Women's Armachillo Cooling Briefs
A simple long sleeve shirt is vital for traveling. This one from Gap is great for layering (read: thin), flattering, easy to pair with various outfits and can be hand washed in a sink. I have it in black and it’s a staple in my carry-on.
Modern Crewneck T-Shirt | Gap
I’ve had this backpack for almost a decade. It’s great to use as your personal item on the airplane then when you get to your destination, it’s your daypack. It’s not too big or too small and it has one big zipper that opens up the whole bag. Love th...
