Essentials

Trust me, having cleansing wipes on hand is a must – for any traveler. I’ve touched some nasty shit, had some creepy things touch me, and been left without toilet paper countless times. It’s always a moment of panic when my supply of these universal wet wipes is running out. I like the Wet Ones brand because my skin is overly sensitive.

Traveling with very few valuable items? This small, but efficient, jewelry case is a great way to keep your treasured items safe and organized.

Although I find it near impossible to sleep while in transit, I still like to be comfortable. This Samsonite inflatable pillow is the best because it can be deflated into a small size and packed away anywhere. Having a pillow take up valuable space in my luggage is not OK.

I prefer using a dry case to a dry bag because I’ve had my belongings destroyed in an expensive dry bag. Essential items can fit in the Pelican case, and keep them dry while at the pool, or beach, or while boating. Don’t worry if your pelican case falls in the water – it floats so it’s easier to find.

Call me old school all you want, but I love to write down and plan things out in a journal. It just so happens, Moleskin makes a perfect travel ledger.
