- Right Seth? - Yes.
- Poor Seth.
While I'm making this video Seth is sitting on the floor.
Just support me.
- I just don't want to be in the video this week.
- Okay that's supportive.
Hey guys my name is Shayla and I make these videos
every Wednesday.
If this is your first time on the channel welcome.
If you like videos about travel,
about creating the life that you want to live
please consider subscribing and checking out a couple
other videos.
This Wednesday we are in. - Playa Del Carmen.
Playa, playa.
- Muy bien.
We're in Mexico.
We are in Playa Del Carmen.
We took a trip to Cozumel that we'll be making
a video about.
About what to pack while you're here.
Lots and lots of things.
So this Wednesday I'm going to talk to you about
what I pack my clothes in and what I pack my
electronics in.
And then I want to give them away.
First of all we're going to talk about Gregory Packs.
I work with Gregory Packs.
I have all my bags with them.
I've bought a Gregory Pack before I even started
traveling, vlogging, anything.
And it's still my favorite backpack.
I've traveled to a lot of countries
and I have stuffed that thing to the absolute brim
and it is still phenomenal.
Gregory keeps wanting to replace it and I'm like no.
It's been my backpacking backpack.
And I was doing some more professional work
where I shouldn't look like a backpacker
and I asked if I could have a luggage.
They said yes.
So I'm going to show because I love this thing.
The reason why I love it is because there are a million
and one compartments.
Most of my stuff is hanging up right now
so it's kind of empty.
You've got this, just like an open compartment.
It's got these little hooks so you can really strap
down your clothes if you choose to do that.
There's also this little area which I never use but you
can put all your dirty clothes in there
'cause it kind of like seals it up.
Then there's this.
So when you look at this bag you've got this bottom half
and this top half.
And this top half holds so much more than I was expecting.
We open this guy up and you've got a ton of space.
Like I said it's really poorly organized right now
but these are my swimsuits and on the way here I had
my shoes in here, I had my essential oils container
because I can't travel anywhere without that right Seth?
- Correctomundo.
- You can just have zingers in this one.
Then you've got these compartments which are super nice
for like I have my passport in there.
I don't know if that's the best spot for it
but that's where that is.
I have like Tylenol in here, sometimes I put my
dirty socks, dirty clothes in here.
If you can fit all of your makeup things in that
that's nice.
I like to have mine loose so that I can set up
on the counter.
Then we go to the front.
So there's a big compartment here
where I keep my grandma pills.
Didn't remember that I had those.
Don't tell Seth 'cause I told him that I packed
really well this time. (zipper sliding)
And then this smaller compartment.
Point of this is it holds a ton of stuff
because sometimes I'm not the best minimalist packer.
Most of the time I am.
- Uh what?
- This time I really was and I've gone through everything
and now I have nothing to wear.
It's fine.
I also have a computer bag that I use with them.
I have my backpacking backpack,
Seth has a backpacking backpack.
There's so many different things that you can do.
This is definitely a carry on bag.
It's perfect, it's small.
I love it.
When I was deciding on which one I wanted
Lindsey was like I know you're going to want this one
because the hard case is just one thing.
There are no compartments.
I was like... perfect.
So if you love compartments as much as I do this
will be your bag.
Then we've got the Side by Side.
Keeps everything real organized, real sleek.
When everything has a home it's easier to keep it organized
and found.
This Side by Side has got two zippers on it.
This time I want to actually get closer.
And mine's purple, Seth's is black.
It also comes in camo.
Has two zippers on it right.
Let's see if you can see it right there.
So the first zipper we're going to open is just kind
of a black hole.
This is where I keep my external hard drives.
Sometimes I put my computer plugin in there
because it like expands.
It's stretchy so you can stuff it in there, it's perfect.
The other one opens up all the way
and it opens up like this.
So here I have, I'll put like my phone charger,
my I don't know, charger that charges other things.
The connector to my external hard drive.
There's a pen holder.
There's lots of things, you figure out what to do with them.
This is how I use it.
Then you've got this little zippy guy right here.
And I put my SD cards there, I put my thumb drives here,
and here's where you can put like the long part,
the extension cord of your computer charger.
Is this making sense?
He's not listening.
That's that and this is amazing because before this I kind
of just had everything thrown in a little baggy
and so now it's all in one thing
and it's pretty sleek.
It fits in my backpack really well
so this is pretty awesome too.
Like I said in the beginning we're going to be giving
these things away.

and asked them if they wanted to do it

Thank you guys so much for following.

Mwah, bye.
Say bye. - See ya.
- Seth was making fun of me yesterday because when I came
home it was literally a white line like this
from my mask.
Do you think I went snorkeling today?
Can I get you a margarita? (laughs)
I don't know where we are.
I'll figure out the name.
But this is a spot where you can just walk in the water
and it's crystal freaking clear.
(water splashing) (chuckles)
