Travel Essentials I Swear By – Must-Haves for Every Trip!
I have been travelling a lot since then and here are the essential things I got from Amazon that helped me with my travels.
The Amazon Luggage Protector
Okay Amazon finders, first things first – a luggage protector. I know, I know, it might sound a little extra but hear me out! Not only are these covers super cute (hello, personalized style), but they also do wonders for keeping your suitcase secure. They make it way harder for anyone to mess with your stuff, and in case your bag decides to explode during transit (hey, it happens!), everything stays neatly packed inside. Plus, they help you spot your luggage at baggage claim in seconds. Just a heads-up: some airports might not allow them, so check before you go!
Note: Not all airports accept luggage covers, so check ahead before you arrive!
The Neck Pillow From Amazon
Alright, let’s talk neck pillows. I know they can look a bit dorky, and you can find them everywhere. but these ones from Amazon are the best and if you wear them the right way (pro tip: backwards!), your neck will seriously thank you. They come in all sorts of price ranges, so there’s one for every budget, and the ones with removable covers are a must for staying fresh and clean on the go.
The Packing Cubes
Let’s talk packing cubes. If you haven’t hopped on this trend yet, you need to. These little cubes keep everything super organized, and I’m telling you – they save so much space. I got smaller packs from Walmart and a larger set from Amazon, and they’ve made packing for my family of four a total breeze. No more rummaging around for that one shirt at the bottom of the suitcase!
The Portable Stroller Fan
Okay, moms and dads, or anyone who likes to stay cool – a portable stroller fan is everything. It keeps you and your crew chill, and most come with LED lights, which is perfect for those evening strolls or when you need a bit of extra light on the go. Seriously, it’s a multitasking hero!
My Hygiene Essentials
I’m a bit of a nerd when it comes to packing hygiene stuff, but it makes all the difference. Think disposable toothbrush packs with lids (because nobody likes a dirty toothbrush!) and travel-sized toothpaste. I also swear by little containers for shampoo, conditioner, and soap – less bulk, more space! And speaking of containers, I always use a hard plastic hygiene bag. If something leaks (been there, done that), it’s a breeze to clean, and your clothes stay mess-free. And don’t forget a thermometer in this post-COVID world – just to be safe!
Washcloths From Amazon
This might seem basic, but a washcloth is such a versatile little hero and you can find it in Amazon easily. It can double as a sweat towel or a quick freshen-up cloth after a long flight. You can grab multipacks pretty much anywhere, and the best part? You won’t feel guilty if one gets lost or super grimy – just toss it and grab a new one!
The Money Wallet
Now, my absolute holy grail find in Amazon: my money wallet. This thing is a total lifesaver – it’s got RFID protection (so no one’s scanning your cards), it’s sleek, and it holds a ton of stuff. I feel so much safer knowing it’s tucked away, whether I’m carrying a couple of bucks or a stash for the whole trip. And the best part? It’s pretty much impossible for anyone to pickpocket without me noticing!
So there you have it, my go-to travel essentials that have saved my butt more times than I can count. If you’re looking for ways to make your travel smoother, more secure, and definitely more fun, these are the things you need in your suitcase. Got any travel must-haves of your own?
