How I Deal With My Travel Pet Peeves

The 5 Essentials I Can’t Travel Without!

Travelling can be super fun but it can also turn into a nightmare really fast if you don’t do it right. These are somethings I’ve picked up that are sure to put a positive spin on your travels! Here are some essentials I can’t travel without:

Reading material

Always carry something to read while travelling because it can get super boring. If you want to see the scenery or something that’s fine but if you’re flying or aren’t super interested in the scenery I would suggest definitely bringing along something to read.

Makeup

To see the full list of makeup items I travel with click here. I usually travel with at least some makeup items because travelling can really take it out of you and you might end up looking exhausted so having a couple of makeup items can help you look fresh and awake even after a long journey.

An extra pair of clothing

Just in case you get stuck somewhere remember to carry along a fresh pair of clothes and if you’re able to, a towel. It really saved me when I missed my flight!

Snacks

Let’s be honest- plan food is usually the worst. Getting good food can be difficult when you’re travelling and ironically you need good food when you’re travelling because it can be very tiring and exhausting. Make sure to carry some filling snacks so that you can stay energized during your travels.

Medicine

It’s always a good idea to keep some stomach/flu medicine with you just in case. If you’re a anxious flyer some anti-anxiety/sleep medication would also be a good idea. It’s hard and sometimes not possible to find medicine while travelling and that’s why you should always carry some with you.

    As much as I hate taking medicine it’s always the first thing that I pack. The one time I forgot my medicine I was dying for it and needed it because I had an unknown cause of an allergy attack 🤦🏻‍♀️

    I agree with most, except that I generally prefer music to reading while travelling, just a personal preference (and reading can cause motion sickness for some).

    Extra clothing is a biggie…especially if taking a suitcase, putting a spare pair of clothes in your carry on bag is great for accidental spillages or lost luggage!
