Travel Gear (Amazon Idea Lists)

Before my trip, I agonized over what to take. I watched too many videos, read too many reviews — and these are the items I actually loved

If you want to know more, check out the Travel Tips tag for other items that didn’t make the cut.

I’ve made three quick, tested-and-loved gear lists to make travel easier:

Carry-On Only Travel Essentials – Pack lighter, skip & minimize liquids, and stay eco-friendly—It’s important to me to try to not pollute natural spaces. Did you know there are eco-friendly toothpaste tablets!?
In-Flight Sanity for Long Flights – Comfort, snacks, and gear that keeps you sane at 30,000 feet. As you get older, ummm, it‘s good to try to make long flights tolerable. Some of these items are MUSTS.
Packing Essentials for Any Trip – The basics to have for packing.

I’ve tested everything on international research trips, long flights, and way too many layovers.
