Taking a trip? Check out these 8 must haves

I like my travel tight. Get everything I need in as small a space as I can possibly fit, BUT I also know that I’m a packrat and I’ll probably buy some stuff I don’t need, but I’ll have to have because who knows if I’ll ever get the chance to buy a snowglobe on the Great Wall of China again? You know you feel me. So I’ve put together a collection of things that will keep your phone charged, laptop backed up, possessions safe, AND do it in style and in the most compact way possible. If you’re taking a trip…Check out these 8 must haves that WE USE ALLLLL the time.

Tumi Alpha Bravo Backpack

This is my second Tumi backpack. My first was in college and I busted it to save up for one. I worked at a Neiman Marcus part-time just so I could buy a Tumi backpack and two Hugo Boss suits during the friends and family discount. I quit two weeks later. Is that silly? Who knows and it’s not the point – the point is I’ve never turned back from Tumi backpacks. They’re highly durable, stylish, and this Alpha Bravo has pockets built for the road warrior or the casual weekender.

Hartmann 7R Global Carry On Spinner

I’ve used Hartmann luggage for a long time, and I really have my eye on this upgrade. Hartmann has a great warranty and personally I think the 7R looks super handsome.

Ebags packing cubes. I really do use them everytime I travel.

Anker Portable Power Banks

I travel with 2 or 3 of these bad boys. They’ve saved my life…or least my life as a blogger with a phone who’s battery likes to die right before boarding.

I use a GoPro Hero 5 but I really want the new Fusion so I could record in full 360.

These guys are fully water proof and offer true 4k video ( 5.2k with the Fusion).  They aren’t cheap, but I’ve found them to be really fun to film with and the image/video quality is great. The new Fusion is currently on sale for $597.

Macbook Air + Seagate portable hard drive.

• My Macbook Air is Slim, fast, and it’s Miles’ favorite. The only downside…it doesn’t have a large hard drive…that’s where the Seagate comes in

Miles whips this bad boy out no matter if he’s on the plane…or lounging in Bali at Mandapa!

Eagle Creek “No Matter What “Duffel Bag

I love this thing. I bought it in 2015 for our Safari and it ends up getting packed into my roller. If I buy stuff…Bam! I unpack this bad boy and I have a durable bag to toss it into. Hello Madison Wisconsin 🙂
