TRAVEL ESSENTIALS

Summer season means travel season is here… Where are you headed to this summer? I’m headed….EUROPE! I can’t wait. I’ll be visiting 8 countries in 25 days and I cannot wait! I can already tell that this summer will be one for the books and am more than excited for the adventures that are up ahead. Now, it’s time to gather some travel essentials…

With my trip right around the corner, I am slowly but surely gathering things for the big departure. So, where do I begin? Here are a few travel essentials that I’ve come up with so far!

Here are a few must have travel essentials:

• Comfortable shoes: They are always a necessity on trips, no matter where you’re headed. And you can never go wrong with a pair of TOMS.

• Camera: Put your phone away and bring along a real camera. How about a mini Polaroid? Nothing beats having your memories instantly developed.

• Hat: Whether you’re on the beach or in the city, a hat will always come in handy on those hot sunny days.

• A Pair of Sunglasses: A timeless pair of sunglasses is always an essential – vacation or not. But just one will do.

• Mini Crossbody: Because we all know the last thing we want is to lug around a huge bag. Give your back a break and find a crossbody that is interchangeable with any outfit. Trust me, you’ll be glad you did!

• Lip Balm: I don’t know about you, but lip balm is a daily essential for me. Toss one into your cross body!

• A Watch: Like I said, put your phone away while you’re on vacation. Try not to look at it…even if it’s just for telling time. Save yourself from the temptation and wear a watch everyday. But try to enjoy your time instead of paying attention to it ;)

• A Journal: last but not least, get into the habit of writing into a journal, daily.  Keep the memories alive, forever.
