My Travel Essentials (w/ links!)
I want to share my list of travel essentials to help you travel smoothly, stay organized, and avoid overpacking. These are tried-and-true items I personally use for every trip and recommend to you.
If you grab any of these items, I’d love if you used the links I provided. I’m an Amazon Associate, so I earn a tiny commission (literally pennies), which helps support my business at no extra cost to you.
Necessities (Don’t skip these):
Samsonite Freeform Spinner Carry-On - Ditch the bulky luggage and travel light. This one glides effortlessly through airports and includes a TSA-approved lock for peace of mind.
Compression Packing Cubes - A must for staying organized and maximizing space. You’ll fit more into your carry-on while keeping everything easy to find.
Travel Backpack - Waterproof with plenty of compartments and a built-in USB charger. This is your ideal personal item for keeping essentials within reach in transit.
Toiletry Bag - Wes and I share this one. It holds everything you need while taking up minimal space, and the hook makes it easy to hang in any bathroom setup.

Universal Travel Adapters - Reliable and versatile for international travel so you’re always powered up.
Portable Power Banks (10,000mAh or 20,000mAh) - Keep your devices charged on long travel days, excursions, or when outlets aren’t easily accessible.
