I’ve traveled to nearly 50 countries

…and here are the items I never leave home without

1. Packing cubes

Check out these great packing cubes in the Pack-It Overnight set from Eagle Creek. They help keep me organized and allow me to separate out different clothes like my business and casual, dirty and clean while also making it possible to pack down much more compact in my suitecase.

Three light blue Eagle Creek Travel Gear pouches of varying shapes and sizes are displayed against a plain white background.

    2. Global Travel Adapter

    An orange universal travel adapter, a must-have in travel accessories, with slider switches and USB-A/USB-C ports on the side.

    When I’m leaving the country, I always bring a global travel adapter with me. These amazing tools work almost anywhere in the world and by having one, you don’t have to stress about having the right adapters at your destination. Plus, they come with USB inserts so that you can charge multiple devices at once.

    3. Hydrapack Flux

    When you are traveling to countries that don’t have dependable drinking water, it’s always good to have a backup plan. That’s why I carry the Hydrapack Flux with me on those kinds of trips. It allows for a collapsable 1.5L bottle that I can use even in the most remote or developing places on earth.

    A collapsible water bottle, ideal travel gear, is shown upright and expanded on the left, and flattened and compressed on the right.

    4. Passport wallet

    A light gray travel wallet with a zipper, wrist strap, front pocket, and the eagle creek logo—perfect Travel Gear for any adventure.

    I often like to keep my most important documents and extra cards separate from my primary wallet in case of theft while traveling, and for that I use the Eagle Creek Stash RFID Passport Wallet.

    5. Power bank

    You can never count on having chargers available on flights or airports, so it’s important to bring a power bank to charge all your electronics.

    A must-have Travel Gear: a portable power bank with a dark gray body, orange end, Biolite logo, and small LED indicator.
