Travelling essentials, whats on your travel list?

Sunshine Abou Bakar | jg

Jasmine Crumby | Deodorant, Extra credit card, ID

Daniela Kemeny | WIFI! I never step foot out of an airport without having purchased a SIM card first, mainly for security. Using a GPS, being able to google the nearest emergency center, and being able to call your hotel in case you get lost are fundamental things I need to be able to do. (And yes, be ale to post our adventures on social media too )

Monet Hambrick | Portable battery pack, camera and tripod.

Ashley Onadele | For me, my skin routine, clean underwear and a jacket (I hate to be cold). For my kid, food, diapers, extra change of clothes.

Astrid Vinje | It’s hard to narrow it down to just three, but for us, the three things we never travel without are comfortable shoes, packing cubes, and a carbon monoxide detector. Because we do a lot of walking, good shoes are very important. They need to be able to support our feet and not give us blisters at the end of the day. For me, it’s a toss up between my mary-jane style Danskos (which are great for city and cold weather trips), and my Chacos (which I like using when I go somewhere hot). We recently started traveling with a carbon monoxide detector, and it’s literally saved our lives recently. We were staying at an Airbnb in Mexico City, and it turned out that the water heater was pumping our room with carbon monoxide gas. Since carbon monoxide is colorless and odorless, we wouldn’t have known what a dangerous situation we were in had it not been for the carbon monoxide detector going off.

Montoya | SNACKS! All the snacks. (Seriously, we usually have an entire carryon just filled with snacks) A travel blanket (for sleeping, when the planes are cold, when they need something to sit on, etc.) Phones and tablets.

Kameko Rooks | My inflatable Leg pillow. My travel blanket (I’m always cold). My phone and laptop for entertainment!

Travelling Essentials for kids

Sunshine Abou Bakar | jg

Daniela Kemeny | A babycarrier/childcarrier that is comfortable for you and your child is a must. A cosleeping nest for the baby, so that you can forget about cribs at your accommodation.

Astrid Vinje | Packing cubes are important for us because it helps to keep our clothes organized. We have one packing cube for each member of the family, and that’s all we take to carry all our clothes.

Monet Hambrick | For the kids tablet, headphones and their entertainment pack.

Jasmine Crumby | Wipes, Extra pair of clothes, Diapers

Montoya | SNACKS! All the snacks. A travel blanket for when they need something to sit on . Phones and tablets.

Ashley Onadele | For my kid, food, diapers, extra change of clothes.

Kameko Rooks | Snacks for the kids and grabbing a bottle of water before getting on the plane.
