My Travel Essentials-What's in my Carry On?
For those of you who are curious, welcome to what I carry in my 'carry on'. I'm just kidding! I promise I have an aim for this weirdly strange post. So for years now, I've realised that these kinds of posts and videos, are quite trending. Well, my first question was, "who would be interested in such content, and why would people even give interest"? I was completely wrong. Some odd and eccentric entertainment, I would say! So anyway, since I've decided to take you along with me to my exquisite and exciting trip to London, and of course prevailing my 'Travel' series on the blog, I said to myself, 'what better way to kick off this series without my travel essentials'! I hope you don't mind my lacking in fashion related posts recently. I am catching up, and promise you with lots of content, after concluding this series. I have rested my case, so let us begin!
It's always nice to use up your time in the plane, cozying up to a good book and some good music. Sounds like a good idea, right? Especially since the plane can be quite cold, so a pair of fuzzy socks and a comfy sweater are always a good alternative, rather than carrying up a big bulky blanket. That would take up way too much of your precious space! And a tip I have always said, is to jot down your ideas. Anything that comes to mind! It's always good to look back at your thoughts, keeping you intact with your emotions, whether the happy or the sad.
It's always important to carry some money around, especially at airports! Whether it's your credit card or some cash, store it all in a useful wallet that you can carefully cache in your purse with the rest. And for those of you who don't like getting out without a full face of makeup, wear some sunglasses! They can disguise you and can also give you some sort of protection! A plus plus situation. :)
These are all essentials a girl who isn't a big fan of makeup (maybe me), and a girl who is. It's always important to freshen up after a long flight, and even during one! Use it as an opportunity to pamper yourself! Put on a weird face-mask, for all I know! Do what makes you comfortable, and do what makes you happy! It's all that counts...
Gadgets
-Phone -Ipad -Laptop -Camera -Chargers -Portable Charger
These should be on the top of your list. I am guilty of never leaving the house without them.
Remember, if you lose these, you lose your life. They are an essential to every blogger, or really any electronic fanatic. I recommend packing these items in any available zip compartments in your carry on, since I've heard of many pick-pocketing incidents. This way you can carry a backpack or even your purse with comfort and keep worry-free. You're welcome! :)
Keep Hydrated
-Water Bottle -Healthy Snacks
When in the airport or on the airplane, the air can be quite dry, which is very frustrating.
But, that's only an excuse for you to keep hydrated. Bring as many bottles of water as your little purse can fit. It's very important to hydrate your skin as well, but I'll leave that to a skin care routine. Travel does not always mean eating unhealthy foods. It can be an outlet for you to revive yourself, and make a little changes to your body. So stack up with as many healthy and energy-filled snacks you can find. This will allow you to feel stronger and more awake when travelling, rather than over-dosing on caffeine.
Travel Papers
-Passport -Passport Copy -Travel Wallet -Boarding Pass -Tickets -Others

A passport is an essential, it goes without say. However, a travel wallet is just another tip of mine to keep your travel papers in place. It is always a good idea to have an item you can hold on to, that carries your essentials, while keeping some privacy. You always want to have a passport copy, because you never know what can happen. Always be prepared!
Cozy Entertainment
-A good book -Magazines -Fuzzy Socks -Notebook-pens -Headphones -Earphones -Sweater
On the run
-Wallet -Sunglasses
My kind of 'makeup'
-Chapstick -Hair ties -Tangle Teezer -Hand Sanitizer -Face Mist -Tissues -Concealer
-Compact Powder -Mascara -Brow Brush -Mini Powder Brush -Beauty Blender - Nude Lipstick
Well, I hope this post was a great source of information!
Especially for those of you travelling this summer, you're welcome.
I can't wait for you to travel along with me to the great London! New adventures await...
I hope you're having a fabulous summer so far,
thanking you forever and always,
