Whenever I travel anywhere
I pretty much always only bring one single
Backpack and I pack everything I'm going to use on the trip into it you want to know how that's done. Here's how
Depending on where you're going on where your needs are for the trip
It's obviously going to be different what you're going to pack in my experience of going on trips
You always need less than you think as an example
I'm going to show you the things I will bring on my trip to Chicago
Which I will be going on in a few days. I just start off with the usual things
I'm going to bring my cell phone my passport my wallet and my keys
I always switch for a little bit of currency of the country that I'm going to
Beforehand so that I'm not stuck when I first get there
So here are the basic toiletries and hygiene products I would bring some sunscreen comb hand Sanitizer toothpaste
Toothbrush and floss, mouthwash bar soap face lotion. here's some deodorant. This is a little pouch of earplugs
Here's some tissues. My contact lens case
backups and solution razor
Shampoo and conditioner and my glasses here's a little pouch for my makeup and stuff so all of these would go in here
Okay, here we go
so clothes
this would obviously depend on where you're going whether it's hot or cold or a combination of both, of course if there is a
Combination it's going to be a little bit more complicated
There's actually a lot you can do with clothing to mix and match it
So that you minimize the amount that you have to bring you don't forget what you're wearing on your person is one set of clothing
Already only bring one or maybe maximum two pairs of jeans
Pants can be worn more than once. bring different shirts for different situations whether it's formal or casual so you can be prepared
Here is kind of a nice shirt. Here's a casual shirt. Here's a tank top and here's a long shirt that can work well with
Pants as well as leggings. oh yes, that's right - leggings
bring a casual summer dress for during the day
And then maybe a nice evening gown for going out at night
a casual pair of shorts
bathing suit
Sweater or jacket for when you may get cold and you know the usual bras underwear and socks
This is definitely the first and probably the last time I'll be showing my undergarments on camera. in terms of shoes what I would do
is wear my running shoes on the day that I'm taking off and
Bring my sandals. depending on where you're staying you may be provided with a towel or not
But I usually just bring a small one just in case and this is really important chargers for your phone iPad camera
I usually also bring a power bar because you never know when you might be in a situation that you don't have enough plugs
But I can't really show you right now because all my lighting and camera equipment are plugged into the power bar
So just trust me. I'm going to be bringing one. I'm gonna bring my umbrella, my glasses, pens
They're really useful for filling out customs forms, and I usually if I have space
I'll bring my hair straightener and this actually also curls my hair, so it's kind of a really useful
Little tool.
can't forget my meds
So I actually use this little tiny container where I put all kinds of medication like Advil,
gravol, cold medication in case I get sick just don't get them mixed up. so I also bring my iPad for things like travel
itineraries or
Reservations I tend to use evernote to keep track of all of my stuff.
Sometimes I'll bring a tiny little pouch for a day bag so while I'm walking around
Wherever I am I don't have to carry my large backpack. Okay here we go
Okay, I think I'm done and that's how I pack everything I'm going to use on a vacation into one little backpack
traveling light just makes
