No one talks about this but travelling can be a pain in the ass.
It's all glamorous until everything is falling out of your hands after TSA security check. To make matters worse, you may end up doing unexpected cardio sprinting to your gate to the farthest terminal.
This is not to scare you from exploring the world. These are just possible scenarios that could happen. Better to be prepared than not!
So to make travelling easier, here are some essentials I recommend based on personal experience:
1. Self Charging Phone Case
This has to be one of the best purchases I have ever made. Especially when you are going to be taking tons and pictures and posting them, your battery is going to drain too fast trying to keep up. With this, you don't have to worry about your charging cord getting tangeled up on your purse, let alone bring it which saves so much space in your bag. I got my phone case off of Amazon and I was able to charge my phone from dead to 100% 3 times before having to recharge the case. I highly recommend this to anyone.
2. Longchamp Tote Bag
Longchamp really be cooking with this one. Their tote bags were made for travelling. It can hold so many things without looking bulky and the straps are at the perfect length so that it sits comfortably on your shoulder. You can pretty much carry everything you need for your day excursion and still look fabulous in vacation photos. Although it is a luxury item, it is so easy to use and to clean which makes it perfect for unexpected events when travelling.
3. E-SIM Card
I can't stress enough about how frustrating it is to not have internet access when you are abroad. Trying to connect to public WIFI is not reliable especially when you have never travelled to the desination before. I recommend buying an E-SIM card before hand to save you the trouble of buying one there. An E-SIM card is an electronic sim card that you can buy online and register it into your phone digitally. From personal experience, getting a SIM card is not as easy said than done. When I was in Indonesia, in order for a SIM card to work you must register your phone at the airport with your passport. You can do this free of charge however anywhere outside of the airport, you must load a certain amount of money in order for it to work. Money is not the issue but it is inconvenient. With an E-SIM card, you don't have to worry about going through the hassel of unexpected troubles of getting one and you won't have to worry about losing your current SIM card. However, I would recommend in doing research prior getting one just to be sure that it will work in the country you are travelling to.
4. Phone Crossbody Strap
This is so convenient to have especially when you will be busy taking pictures. Travelling can be fast paced and your hands could get full quick. With a crossbody strap phone case, you don't have to dig into your bag for your phone every 3 minutes. In addition, it is the perfect device to avoid the chances of your phone getting pick pocketed. I highly reccomend this product especially if you know you will be photographing everything. Amazon have many selections of designs and colors.
Vacationing is about making core memories and having a good time. So don't let inconveniences get in the way of disturbing that. Happy travelling!
