Summer is here! Chances are, you are planning a trip of some sort. Whether it is a quick weekend getaway to the beach, or a three-week vacation to an exotic destination, consider these “packin tips and travel hacks” by Travel Expert David Leo Yarus:
It’s all about versatility! For example, think about shoes you can wear for that formal event as well as chillin’ by the pool or going to the farmer’s market. I recently went to a friend’s beach wedding in Colombia. My khaki colored Tom’s where perfect for the occasion and versatile for the rest of my trip. However, if you’re bringing more than one pair, be sure to wear the larger pair of shoes/boots when you travel! Same goes for jackets: think versatile and wear or carry the larger one on the plane (this will also double as a nice pillow for your trip!). Furthermore, when you pack a pair of shoes, be sure to utilize the inside of the shoe which is the perfect spot for belts, ties, and even small electronics and will help support the shape of the shoe too!
Dop Kit: keep it as tiny and efficient as possible. You foldable combs, foldable toothbrushes, tiny sample bottles of cologne, lotion etc! This is a major space saver. I know you love your hairdryer but just about every hotel, and airb+b has these days. I will often buy small bottles and containers and fill my own shampoo/bodywash. Another great hack are using those tiny super thin samples — you know the ones they always give you at Keihl’s like the beard oil,
Use a Tile. Ever heard of Tile? It’s an amazing sleek little device that acts as a mini tracking device. I always throw one in my bag. The Tile connects to an App on your phone and if you ever misplace something, you can simply pull it up on your phone and see exactly where it’s located. You can always alert the “Tile” community for assistance too.
