EUNICE!!! Love all your videos, but sadly I must let you go because you are turning me into a “shopaholic”!!! So many of your little cute ideas make complete sense to me, and I barely ever travel, but I must have them!! OK, I’m kidding about letting you go, I won’t, you and your videos are just too adorable! 😂❤
Me also. everything Eunice shows us is so practical. Many of these tips are useful when just staying "in country" and travelling to family or friends. I do love this channel, I've gained many ideas for just travelling by bus or coach or train to London. And being a senior citizen I appreciate any weight saving, and security tips. I folded double kitchen foil round thin flexible card to place in my bank card wallet RFID without having to discard a perfectly good item and buy new. I might try sewing a phone sleeve with fold over tuck in flap. sandwich the foil between the outer and inner fabric. Detachable strap means I can "crossbody" wear it. Foil food trays are quite thick, they don't tear like kitchen foil but they are still flexible. Edges will be sharp so just fold over, or fold glue tape over. . But I'm not sure how the sewing machine needle will cope, so perhaps an experiment, double sided sewing tape, thin lines of glue at the edges ? Could even make a basic big pouch to slip into the handbag or tote. - and could double up as a crossbody/hand bag. . UK. E❤
This was such a great video! I especially appreciated how you weren't afraid to talk about preparing for uncomfortable situations on the road (bug bites, bowel problems, etc)!
Thank you so much💕😊 I always figured it’s better to talk about it find a solution rather than sweep it under the rug, and everybody suffers! And even if you don’t have a situation like this right now, you never know when something like this might pop up later ❤️😊 truly appreciate your feedback💕💕
I watch a lot of people here on YT that do travel packing videos but your channel is my absolute FAVORITE ❤ I get so many great ideas from you. Thanks for all the helpful tips and tricks. ❤👍🏼
Thank you so much! That truly means a lot to me and I want to thank you so much for giving me that feedback and encouragement! I’m also very happy you’re getting some great hacks for your travel adventures😊❤️
I agree! ❤ all these helpful tips and products! I have been trying so simplify and condense my travel bag and purses for a long time, searching and searching for smaller containers. I carry a heavy-duty suction-cup hook to hang my bag from the bathroom mirror. I thought about Command products but didn’t think about the painters’ tape. I’m guessing you carry replacement strips for the hooks. I’ll be watching more of your videos (this is the first one I’ve seen)!
YESSS!... I love your tiny toiletry thingys but I'm most impressed with your practical gadgets (night light, portable humidifier -wow!- hooks, etc.). And... the portable bidet is a winner. Most of all, I like that you are REAL. Getting sick away from home or wanting to find comfort or ambience are important too. THANK YOU! 🌼🌿
You’re so very welcome and I’m so glad that you got some great Haxan can appreciate me just being me and real in this video! I truly appreciate you giving me your feedback😊❤️
Thank you for being real with details about your travel bidet kit!!! I really appreciate your videos, I have learned so much from you. Keep the videos coming.
Thank you so much! My family says, “if there’s something uncomfortable to talk about, Eunice will talk about it” 🤣😂 I truly don’t feel there’s anything taboo to talk about. And if we could help each other out, why not❤️😊
Quick tip: solid deodorants can be scooped out and put in much smaller containers with a screw down lid or the go tubb small. I use a spoon and smash the product into a smaller container. Just use fingertips to apply. Same with my favorite toothpaste which doesn’t come in travel size (use a go tubb small)Many surely know to cut bar soaps or shampoo bars with a sharp knife to take only what is needed. Love your videos, thank you.
The command hook idea is everything! I am always so frustrated, when there isn't any counterspace to put my toiletries in a tiny bathroom. I will definetely copy this!
I love the bidet you made up! I was just telling my husband I’d like to find a collapsible bidet to keep in my purse or carryon. Perfect idea. Hope you don’t mind if I duplicate it for me. You are right. Once you use a bidet regularly, you miss it terribly when it’s not available.
Thank you so much 💕 w Absolutely hope you do copy this and have something to carry while you travel whether it’s just down the road or across the world! 😊❤️🙏
I've used bidets in Italy, they are everywhere and I agree so much cleaner! There weren't fights about toilet paper during the pandemic :) It's a shower for your peri-anal area :)
Long term travel..washing plug, line, folding hangers, washing sheets. Vitamins and powdered greens. Pop up bowl and cup. Plastic coated wire that can twist shut for creating a hook. (lighter than a hook). Small spoon and spork. (Fork snd spoon together). Snall plastic bags for emergiencies and wipes. Panty liners for the long trip flight. Dehyrated soup packet. Currently looking for a small kettle that has a usb. Love your channel 😂😊
Thank you! You have a great list and I love the idea about some wire except I have to make sure that it’ll fit over the door and I can get the door closed and it will be strong enough to hold my bag. Regarding the USB kettle I do have a USB powered water heating kettle that it doesn’t collapse and I’ll be showing that in a video soon.😊
Oh my gosh! I am so glad you found this video, and found my channel! 40 years of traveling and some painful mistakes and issues have taught me a lot. Sometimes I’m overprepared, but I look at it like car insurance, you don’t want it, but you need it and you’re glad you have it when you do need it.💕😊
@@TheoryofSimple so true! All these years, I’ve been overpacking the wrong things! Too many clothes, not enough of the right toiletries & comforts 🤗 Thanks to you, Theory of Simple, I’ll be much better prepared ☮️
The supplement binder! I just got back from a 1 month trip. I used vitamin bottles, and 4 bottles fit inside of my shoes, but this would have been great to use! I’m going to buy for my next trip. Great tips!
What an awesome idea with the command hook! And the bidet will definitely be on my list. Few notes: I used to work in a hospital and there is a reason why you never have bar soaps there: bacteria can live in them forever. Gross. I see the point on avoiding the little bottles but it’s not worth the risk to your health. Plus combining both in a bag…I’m not so sure. I add a room refresher (the ones from Bath and Body Works are intense to say the least, so I spray them after using the bathroom or when leaving the room/airbnb for a better experience). Tips for making your room cozier: pack a faux flower and a little plastic vase or bottle. Add a light blanket. Essential oils and a humidifier like you do. A rechargeable fan. A small speaker for music (Target has good ones). I travel with kids so sometimes traveling feels more like work but these little touches make me feel relaxed.
Thank you so much for that hack on the soap! Really good information and appreciate you sharing that here! I guess I better go back to liquid soap! Also, thank you so much for the other great tips that help you feel more like you’re at home on these long travel adventures!🙏❤️😊
@@TheoryofSimple keep your soap dry between uses, don't share with others & only use a small amount. The important part of washing with soap is to rinse. Skin cells and moisture are what make soap a little petri dish. The motion of disrupting the cell membrane of bacteria is what is important. We all have bacteria on our bodies and they are important part of our ecosystem. Solid soap and liquid have the potential to grow harmful bacteria. I'm keeping my solid soap, in small amounts, for my personal use. ( 4+ decade career in pathology & my career was under the microscope) Long story short, I'm keeping and using my personal bar of soap. I also carry tea tree oil when I travel (anti fungal properties) and baby shampoo to wash my eyes
@@wandrousvindella716 thank you so much, Wanda! I guess I never really thought about it much like that and yes, I never share my soap! I love the idea of a baby soap for your eyes❤️😊 Thank you so much for sharing that hack.🙏
@@TheoryofSimple of course! I’m hooked to all your videos now that summer season is here. One more thing about bar soaps if you still want to use them: read about coliform bacteria on them. That’s what made opt for the liquid version. Those pesky things can live in them. Congrats on your channel! .
@@ALICIAMARTINEZ-wk1oz I’m definitely gonna look that up now! I remember as a kid, seeing bar soap sitting out and it would crack and have his black things and I always thought that was really weird. Now I know.!
Thanks, Eunice for the great ideas always. I appreciate you talking about delicate topics because we all have one thing or another. Some of my must haves and do's : Spray sunscreen for your back on the beach so you don't have to ask the towel guy to goop you up, Leave in conditioner in case you are in a location where hot water is scarce (like Peru or DR, you want to jump in/ jump out of the shower). If you take meds, always carry a supply for longer than you think you need because you never know if something could prevent your planned departure date (and band aids if you take blood thinners). We once had to stay extra days because it was snowing back home (airport was closed). Always keep your hard to replace things in your personal item. Don't wait until the last minute to pack / wash your clothes,. Once we had to unexpectedly leave for a trip a day early (a snowstorm was coming, our flight was cancelled, so we flew down south, where it wasn't snowing and connected to our destination the next day). I had to throw "whatever" in my suitcase, never made that mistake again. Always keep at least one outfit and a bathing suit/coverup (for beach vacay) in your personal item or carry on. My sister in law's luggage once went missing for several days . You want to at least be able to enjoy the beach/pool and go out to dinner. The coverup can double as a nightie. She and my sister now pack half and half in their suitcases, in case one suitcase goes missing, each person has at least a few items to use. Another thing we do is stay at a hotel close to the airport the night before an early morning flight so we don't have to stress over traffic (we once had car service from home that didn't show up, had to hail a cab that amazingly didn't have a GPS or EZ PASS, almost missed the flight). Most hotels have shuttles, and some offer low rates on leaving your car there during your trip. Happy, safe travels, everyone!
Thank you so much for all the great hacks! Really love that you shared this with this community! Whenever I used to travel with my ex husband and kids, we always put things up in a different suitcases just in case things got lost! 🙏❤️😊
Yes, you have covered just about everything! I have another travel essential I take when flying. I am very sensitive to odors. I bring a small bottle of lavender essential oil. So if I get seated next to a not-so-fragrant person I can put it into my face mask
Thank you so much! I absolutely love the idea with the lavender oil! Putting it in your face mask allows you to have some thing that makes you feel calm and relaxed, but doesn’t get in other peoples noses! Thank you so much for sharing that hack🙏❤️😊
Love your videos!! I have watched some of them multiple times. I've even been able to purchase some of your recommendations (folding fans and backscratcher are just two of them). As a side note, just got back from a flight where I used your hack of hanging a small sling from the tray table to hold flight essentials. It Totally Worked!! It kept everything I needed (and what my husband needed) easily to hand without hauling out my much larger personal bag. Thank you for giving us such amazing content.
Thank you so much and I am so happy that my videos are giving you some great hacks for your travel adventures and thank you so much for letting me know that they actually work for someone other than me!😊💕
Hey Eunice! Even though a lot of these items dont pertain to me, I still really enjoy watching as I know you'll have something in there I haven't thought of. Those glow in the dark stickers are genius! I usually black out the lights with some gaffers tape wrapped around a thin aluminum card. And I always have at least a couple Rovyvon A5 rechargeable flashlights which are glow in the dark. They have a UV light to see (ahem) stains (blech) . They are the size of a pinky finger and I can see them at night. With their clip, they double as a 700 lumen headlamp. I hope you are doing great! 😊
Hi Brandon! Hope you are doing well! Thanks so much for your feedback! I love those little stickers because if there’s a blind corner where I’m going to the bathroom or coming back from the bathroom and it’s really dark, this will give me just a little bit ago so I don’t run into the corner of the wall! Just call me Grace🤣😂
Lol! Well, it’s taking a lot of travel for me to get to this point, but I’m so glad you did find my channel and are getting some great hacks! More hacks to come😊❤️
Hiker’s secret….Use a wool cloth for cleaning in your bidet kit. Wool will not smell, dry quickly and naturally anti microbial. I plan on using your wall storage hack from previous video
Thank you so much for the suggestion on the wool cloth! I know they make special cloths now for when you pee. What I like about the handy wipe is that if things aren’t quite as clean down there and you need to wash this out or throw it out, it’s not an expensive item and you can replace it easily.😊❤️
If a sunscreen stick “lasts longer,” as you were happy to report, it means you’re not using enough to get the SPF on the label. Unfortunately, it takes a lot of lotion OR stick to get that protection level. IMHO, you’re better to buy sunscreen in your location and use it GENEROUSLY: 1 teaspoon liquid sunscreen for face and neck, reapplied every 2 hours if you’re outside or sweating/ swimming. For the whole body, it takes a shot glass full of sunscreen if you’re in a bathing suit. A tiny stick shouldn’t last long at all.
So my honest opinion I don’t put sunscreen on that much because it blocks you for making vitamin D. I only use sunscreen when I’m gonna be out for a while and generally I have a cover-up on if I really need to keep the sun off of me . I prefer not to put too many chemicals on my skin. 😊
Instead of black post-it notes try black gaffers tape. It will do a better job of covering and will not damage whatever it is stuck on. Also the gaffers tape can replace the painters tape. I carry a bit of both white and black gaffers tape with me always since there are tons of ways to use it.
Thank you so much! Yes! The crackling of that tube just drove me crazy! Plus a little silicon one is so small and discreet. You can take it with you anywhere.😊❤️
@TheoryofSimple I'm going to get one of those silicone bottles. I have the sprayer attachment to put into the top of the bottle. I'd used the noisy option/water bottle and was happy to have it even though it was noisy. (You're right about bidets.) The silicone bottle will complete my kit! Thanks!
There should be a link there for the Power Swabs above the video chapters. I just visited and the link doesn’t work.. if you can’t find it, please let me know and I’ll send it to you separately😊
Theory of Simple? I don't know if you have collected every thing possible that a person might find useful just for this video, or if you are serious about bringing so much high-maintenance crap when you travel, but you redeemed yourself with the 3M hook. Not enough hooks in a bathroom is one of my biggest travel irritations.
Like I said in the video, I don’t always bring everything but I like to have a variety of things to choose from depending on the trip that I’m taking and how long and where I’m going. But after 40 years of travel, I have found that there are times you need things just to make your travel experience, better and more comfortable and these are SOME of the items that I choose from, and I even have more😊 I also have a variety of books that I choose from. This is just one of them I could probably make a whole video on the different types of hooks that I bring with me when I’m doing a long-term travel adventure.😊
I would ask the doctor or pharmacy to print out extra labels. Then I would place the pills that I needed in bags with the label showing.. this way it will let anybody inspecting know what you carry and you won’t get confused as to what you’re taking😊💕
"WOW" This has to be one of the best travel packing videos I have ever seen! You think as I do, always trying to get stuff lighter, smaller, and easier. I am going to revamp several of my little travel kits and follow some of your ideas. I like to put like stuff together like you do. I made a sewing kit with pre-threaded needles and buttons that fit into a plastic credit card sleeve. I do the same thing as you with a manicure kit. I also do all my own laundry, but I prefer the blow-up hangers to the folding ones, as I find the clothes dry faster and no humps on the shoulders. I take an "office" kit and an SD card "entertainment" kit. You have so many great ideas, thank you very much! Keep 'em coming.
Thank you so much! You have great ideas as well! I am going to try the blow up hangers! I have a small sewing kit it bring too! Rush you so much for sharing with us!💕😊
Oh my. I'm new to your videos and I'm absolutely in love with this traveling one! Really brings out the ' Feminine side' Ahah, I'm totally adding some of these tips to my life You are amazing ❤
Thank you so much and I’m so happy you found my channel and are getting some great hacks for your travel adventures! I truly love doing the research and coming up with some great ideas for you so looking for your feedback on my other videos! 💕😊
I insist on taking flushable wipes as not all tp is created equal. Just a touch of home. Small tweezers for stray hairs or splinters, and a magnifying mirror for doing my makeup.
That is so true about the toilet paper! Especially when you go to other countries you just never know what you’re gonna get and if you go to Asia many times they don’t even supply toilet paper in the bathroom, so I always make sure I go in with some tissues and some handy wipes! ❤️💕😊
About 4:38 (the object where you put the pills.....I suggest you to keep your pill on its original wrapper. Preservation is VERY important for avoiding moisture, heat and cross-contamination. Experts (in the health world) don't recommend pacients to open all pills for the week, the pills spend many days exposed to the "outside world". Some wappers allow people to make individual wappers by cuting with hands or scissors. It's very useful for transporting pills and organizating pills without forgetting the importance of preservation.
I agree, especially if you’re traveling to a human area where it can really recall it on pills. Sometimes if there’s a pill and an individual rapper, I’ll cut them up so that they’re little individual rappers, but still able to be portable. Thank you so much for sharing that information with us.🙏💕😊
They are not required to be kept in their original bottle. However, if you feel more comfortable taking them that way, that’s not a problem. If you are going to be taking prescription medication with you, you can get a label printed out at the pharmacy to put onto a pouch that labels them or you can keep them in the original bottle.😊
Another great video & more ideas to ponder over! I'm working on paring down the amounts of products I carry into smaller containers. You give so many great ideas. I'm never going to be a minimalist, but thanks to you I won't be a complete maximalist (is this a word?) either. 😆
Thank you so much 🙏Lol! Like I said, I’m not a Minimalist I just like to carry a lot of things minimally! Sometimes I don’t need something before am I really glad I have it when I do need it😊❤️🙏
Some great ideas in this. Might have to get that humidifier! One thing related to the need that I take is a neti pot and salt sachets. Prefilled saline nose wash is one alternative I may use. Another item I take if I am checking a bag is dollar store foaming hand wash for the hotel room.
That Netty pot is a great idea especially in the winter months, but he might get a cold on the trip. It seems like a lot of times when I come home from a trip in the winter I end up sick so the Netty pot might help prevent that.❤️😊 the dollar store has a lot of great little things for bags like this, so I do recommend checking that store out. Thank you for sharing that.❤️😊
I have not done a video on prescription medication but I just did a video on the little over the counter medication that I take. I probably should do a video on prescription medication.! Thank you so much for the suggestion!😊❤️
Eunice, THANKS for helping me complete 3/4 of my Christmas Shopping via your Amazon Store. I bought gifts for myself and my BFF of 20 years, plus stocking stuffers for both of us!
Thank you so much! It means the world to me that you are getting some great hacks and products from my videos! Truly appreciate you supporting me and my channel through your purchases as well🙏💕😍 I hope you have a wonderful holiday!❤️
OMG wish I had those things years ago when I did travel and camped on my own. A few things will go in my luggage now. The black post it note for nightlights. How annoying to have a bright light on in your room, The bidet. I never knew there was something anywhere that portable. Another gadget for my travel bag. Too many other things in yoru MP bag to list that I will use. Thanks Eunice you are a woman travelers best friend.. XOXO
Here you go! ru-vid.comAotjpxQQNb4?si=2krMNvz8UqZgGdxx I want to let you know that that toiletries bag in that video is currently sold out and they don’t know when they get it back in stock so if you’re looking for that toiletries bag anyone to like let me know and I’ll send you a link to something new that I bought that is similar😊
Hi Eunice. Such a great video and I must say I got a load of ideas for handy travel items from it!! The portable bidet is genius as are all the other dinky wee gadgets. I think my number one thing that I must always have with me when travelling, especially long haul flights, is panty liners! I also take with me a silk/satin pillowcase as otherwise my curly hair is an absolute birds nest in the morning!
I sure missed my bidet on my recent trip to NC. I have bidets at home and love them. I got food poisoning on my trip and wished for my bidet. I sure could have used a portable one, so Amazon shopping for me!
I’m so sorry you got food poisoning on that trip. That’s more common than we think and boy having a good day just to have things cleaned or to Sue with anything that could be not feeling good down. There is so important.! Happy shopping!
Thank you so much! I really don’t know why we get embarrassed about talking about these things when it’s something we all have to deal with at some point or another. Like my family says, “ Eunice will talk about anything “ 🤣😂
I haven’t done this yet but for my next trip I am going to take out my travel deodorant stick from its container - it’s about a quarter of the size. My travel one is more solid than for e.g. secret or dove.
Cortisone cream is great if you are having issues with the soaps on the bedsheets. Tweezers, along with my nail kit. Sunscreen chapstick, I’m very fair skinned. A microfiber bath towel that is easily foldable and stows easily in my toiletry bag. A life-straw, you never know about the water where you are.
Eunice, I just want to say thank you for all of your videos. I've watched almost all of them now! You are delightful and quite the packing magician! I've learned so much, and I've purchased so many of your recommendations. I'm going on my first international trip soon and I feel more confident and prepared because of your videos! It has really helped my travel anxiety. Thank you!!
Your comment just brought the biggest smile to my face! I’m so happy my videos are helping you prepare for your first international trip! 🥰💕😊Where are you headed?
@@TheoryofSimple To visit our daughter in London! She's lived there for two years and this is the first time we've been able to manage it! We're so excited and it's a complete surprise!
WOooooWWW Lady!!! I just discovered lovely you and your channel!! What amazing tips and tricks, ideas, and I really need this right now!! I do house sitting for people while they travel for anywhere from a week to 21 days! So I feel kind of crazy trying to bring all the things I need daily for a week or a month!! I end up having SO MUCH stuff!! I want to totally minimalize it down and make things much more organized, and my GOSH, you have totally helped me see some better ways to do things. Also my plans to fly away for 2 weeks is coming up soon. I might just buy that Nomad Lane bag also! I am eyeing it now! Hey I also love that little mirror, and the light (but didn't see either in the store area) that is also a great idea, because I can't see my eyebrows to pluck them without a magnify mirror or my glasses LOL (impossible!) Love the bidet idea as well. Followed your store so I can look for more super cool stuff. Thank you for your awesome tips and channel! You are totally making me want to travel NOW, hahah! Best wishes! Penny
Hi Penny! Wow! Thank you! I am so happy you are getting some great hacks to help you travel and house sit! If you visit me on Instagram and let me know what links you can’t find, I can get them for you! Truly appreciate your feedback and looking forward to your feedback on my other videos! 💕😊
I always enjoy your videos and new tips for traveling. On my last 2 week trip I would have been in big trouble without packing cubes. We moved from hotel to hotel and took several flights. My next trip needs to be another cruise! 😊
I love all your videos Eunice. I have always been a thorough packer when it comes to toiletries and first aid, but I have learned so much from you about packing them into a smaller footprint. I used my LL Bean hanging organizer for many years, and it is great for including everything in one place, but it takes up nearly half my carry on!! I do still use it for road travel and my just-in-case motel bag, but I have learned to pack in smaller packages when travelling. You have taught me a lot about reducing the footprint. Toothpaste tabs instead of a tube of paste is brilliant! One thing I have started doing to lighten the load: I normally wear monthly lenses, but when travelling, I use dailies, so I don't need to schlepp lens cases and solutions. I like your itty bitty candles for ambiance, great idea (what, no barf bag LOL!)
Thank you so much, Jen! Regarding contact lenses, I used to hate dragging around boxes of contact lenses! I did get Lasix, which was great for a while until I got older, and now I have to wear readers🤓
Really cool video. I have used reusable Q-tips for years. I don’t think they clean as well as the cotton ones sadly but I do try to use them when I can. The bamboo razor was new to me. I’m gonna have to check that one out. I do like to try to save mother earth… And save animals as much as possible lol thanks good videos always🎉
Thank you so much! I agree with you at the reusable Q-tips, I don’t feel is clean, but I’m trying to carry Les and be more cognizant of one time use items. I’m starting to slowly replace plastic in my kit with things that are more friendly to the environment. I should probably do a separate video just on that.! 😊❤️🙏
These are genius ideas (black postit to hide a light - so handy when simply propping a book up won't do) and so many great gadgets. I have a pretty old rechargable motion-sensitive light too... great for getting up in the night!
Thank you so much! That little humidifier has made such a difference when I go up and visit my parents because it’s so dry and their area that my lips will be chapped every morning. Now I don’t have that problem.! 😊❤️
I don’t carry matches because I can carry a lighter now. You are now allowed to carry a small bic lighter with you on a plane. But before I could carry them, I would just go to the dollar store and you got three lighters for like a dollar so it was just cheaper to buy it when I got there.😊
We camp for months at a time (in our fifth wheel) Yes it’s easy to carry everything you need but I like to carry my favorite blanket for reading on the couch, a few “real books, and music. when staying a hotel I like to take binder clips to hold the curtains shut.
I am also wanting to get at least a class B RV someday! It sounds like a wonderful adventure in that you’ve got everything dialed in! I use hair clips to hold curtains closed! 😊❤️
I bring an empty foaming hand soap pump bottle. When I get to hotel room I put a little squirt of shampoo or body wash into it then fill 2/3 with water. Now we don’t have slimy messy bar soap on the bathroom sink. Makes our stay do much more pleasant. When time to leave just dump it out and bring empty pump bottle back home. I make it this way basically all the time at home anyway. I love your painters tape and mini humidifier ideas!
You’re welcome!! I’m honored that an expert like you would try my idea!! If you travel with any aloe gel, at home I put a little squirt of that in first with a little hot water, swish it around to emulsify, then add the squirts of Castile soap and the water. The aloe makes the foaming soap moisturizing. But unless it’s a beach trip I don’t travel with aloe or Castile soap but the foaming soap I make with shampoo/body wash and water Is perfectly wonderful. Can’t wait to hear if you like doing this! Thank you again for your amazing channel!
Hi Eunice, quick question: Do you ever take a flashlight or some sort of small/collapsible lantern with you when you travel? I do know that some types are permitted in the carry-on.I have been researching a few, but curious if you have a preference for TSA approved (international) flights. I wouldn't want to buy one only to have it confiscated.Thank you God Bless
Yes, I carry a couple different lights when I travel. One is a small little light that I keep in my purse that’s a little but very powerful flashlight and it’s also magnetic so it will stick to metal. The exact one I have is an older version, so here’s a link to a newer one.! amzn.to/3KsVgA6 I also carry a collapsible lantern that I keep on my bedside so when I turn off the lights, this will provide just a little bit of light if I’m looking at my phone and it changes colors and it’s also solar powered, so I just take this with me all the time because it folds flat.amzn.to/43QTJdT these are my must have for every trip!
Genius! The command hook with the painters tape. Absolutely brilliant. The entire items is great. I immediately added it to my travel bag. I keep one packed so I dont have to waste time looking or repacking. Love your videos.
Thank you! Thank you!🩷 I’m so glad you got a great hack from this video for your next travel adventure. I have a thing about hooks and I honestly carry a couple of others when I’m doing longer-term travel and I’ll just have to do a whole video on the types of hooks that I carry with me.😊❤️
I cover that little medical kit in another video, and it is part of my long-haul series in my travel, Hacks playlist on my channel. If you’re watching this on a phone or a computer or there should be a little card that pops up in that section of this video that you can link to it but if you’re watching on a TV it does not show up because you can’t link for my TV😊❤️
What an awesome video, thanks for sharing all of these tips. Where did you get the minimal life containers you use for your face washes? Also, can you please link the portable rechargeable toothbrush you use?
Hi there, thank you so much! The minimal life pouches or some thing I’ve had for years, so I’m not able to find those, but there is a link to something similar in the video description and there’s also a link to that electric toothbrush in the video description as well😊
Hi Vandi, you can find a link to the power swabs in the video description😊 it should be right under the initial description of the video before you get to the video chapters💕
So many fun things!!! You really know how to travel in comfort! How fun would it be to purchase one of these “kits” with everything so small and compact and neatly packaged! How fun!! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much and I have thought about that many times that it would be so nice to have a little kit that you could customize and they would just send it to you. Now that’s a business idea.💕😊
Thanks a bunch for your videos. I travel internationally about once a year and packing is daunting. You share great ideas. I am struggling with your Amazon store space. I seek an item or two and encounter long lists and need to increase lists to find things. Is there a better way to search or narrow down the categories? I will keep watching the videos and learning about how to spend money BEFORE my trips!
Hi Mary, thank you so much for your feedback! That Amazon storefront can be pretty dotting, but I do put links to most everything in my video description so that way you can find things separately through those links. Maybe I’ll try to condense my Storefront down.
My travel hack? Baby wipes! Makeup removal: baby wipe. Stain on clothes: baby wipe! Dirty shoes: baby wipe! No TP in the bathroom: baby wipe! No hot water? baby wipe! I can't tell you all the ways they help! All your millions of little things are anything but simple. How do you keep up with all the things?
@@rebeccaarcher5139 well each one is simple and its own thing however, being a social media influencer you know I have to try out a lot of different things just so I can try to find something that might work better or might work for someone else and I also get a lot of things from brands that I need to try out some work out for videos and some don’t so I keep them and this is how I organize everything. Baby wipes are great and I have this with me all the time except I use the water wipes because they’re 99.9% water they don’t have any other chemicals in them.😊
I have not had any issues with it although I don’t carry prescription medication in those things. But every TSA agent is different in every country is different so it’s best to do your research before you pack. Any sort of vitamin supplements or medication😊
Such good ideas here. That command hook idea blew my mind. The thing i always need is scissors. Ive had them taken away at tsa before but ive also been able to bring them plenty of times.
Thank you so much! I have some other hooks that I bring too! I should probably do a video on the importance of hooks! I’m at a hotel suite right now and there is not one hook in the whole place not even in the bathroom🤷♀️🧐 the scissors thing, it’s really up to each TSA agent, but if you look on the TSA approved things scissors are allowed as long as they are under a certain size from the hinge point😊
Hi Debby, thank you so much, 🩷you should find that in my Amazon storefront in that link in the video description! If you can’t find it, let me know and I’ll send you the link separately😊❤️
I have a bidet at home in TWO bathrooms and miss it so much when I travel! Now I don’t have to! Also, it’s nice to see ideas that don’t forego all my specific hair products and creature comforts. At my age I take everything I need and like but you’ve helped me do the same in simpler ways! Thank you!
Just found your channel!! Lot's of great info! I need all of them! Where is the selfie light in your Amazon store, cannot find it? Thank You so much... never mind, just found it....
@@barbarap5278 thank you so so much and I’m so glad you found my channel! I have a lot of stuff on my Amazon storefront so if there’s ever something you really can’t find just let me know and I’ll get it for you💕😊
Thank you for talking plainly about the Bidet. I get occasional hemorrhoids and when they are acting up it can ruin a trip. I also take the miniature size of Preparation H. When you need it you need it. Aloha
@@aliyiapatterson-brooks5646 OK got it. Those pouches are old and no longer available and so I put a link up to something similar. You can find that link in the video description.😊
You have some great suggestions, but as a single travelers with only one working arm how heavy is all this and any ideasfor the handicapped… also non walking
My toiletries bag varies in weight depending on how long I am staying. This bag is light weight and the bottom part snaps off to reduce weight even more. 😊 even with so this stuff packed in it it is under 5 lbs. but this will vary depending on what you pack in it. The hooks i cart will be very important if you are in a wheelchair. Most hotel hooks are too high to reach so putting a hook where you can reach if a game changer❤️😊
I just did a month in Europe with just a carry on. Half the things I took I didn’t even use. That is a crazy amount of things to travel with although some good ideas.
Another WOW video! You've packed it full of ideas, just like you've packed your Mary Poppins toiletries bag full of necessities and niceties. I will have to watch this one again and take notes on what I'd like to add to my travel kit. I use the Magellan soap bag too. I cut a piece of soap and take the big sliver with me - it lasts so long! I have a tiny little soap rest that I keep in the bag as well, and it keeps my soap from getting mushy. I travel for shorter stays, and take just what I need: little bits and dabs of foundation and blusher in a contact lens case. Same with petroleum jelly and cuticle cream. Don't need much but it sure makes my skin feel nicer! I pre-cut my floss, keep in little ziplocks. Love the empty spray bottle too. I spritz my curly hair to give it a refresh. I also set aside my little toothpaste tubes and use them when I just need a few day's worth. Why drag a big tube? Gets you to rethink everything you carry... Thanks for all you do!
You have me at bidet! I have a hand spray. I prefer that over a fixed spray. Oh, how I wish I had this as a younger woman. That time of the month would have been so much cleaner.
I am so glad you talked about the bidet thing! Do you bring T.P.? So many great ideas!! Saving and subscribing. I don't know why I haven't subbed sooner! Thank you for all your hard work.
Thank you so much. I’m so glad you subscribed.🙏❤️😊 I usually bring some tissues and some wet wipes with me, especially when traveling in Asia because many times the bathrooms don’t have toilet paper! I don’t bring toilet paper per se with me, but usually I can get small packs of tissues at almost any store and they’re a little more convenient to carry around😊❤️
Ohmygoodness! I’m so glad I came across your channel! I feel like you get me!!! I absolutely love your hacks! I too have come across a lot of travel channels but yours surpass them all! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!!!
Oh my gosh! Thank you so much!💕😊 I’m so glad you came across my channel and you are enjoying my travel hacks! I hope to be bringing more and look forward to your feedback! Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and comment🙏😊
I've been using the travel bidet for about15- 20 years now. I've been using a empty water bottle. Thank you for the idea of the silicone bottle! You don't have to get a water bottle before you use it! What a genius idea. It's always ready! Thank you so much! You are correct once you use a bidet you'll never go back!
Thank you so much! That little mirror, and that little light should be in my Amazon storefront link. If you can’t find it, let me know and I’ll send you the link separately.😊❤️
