Last year, I traveled more than I had ever before. I'm trying to manifest that same energy this year. I love to travel, and I find going to new places so exciting. You get to experience what it would be like if you chose to live in a different city, leave your problems at home, and wear all of your favorite wardrobe pieces you've been saving for vacation. I mean, what's not to love? However, the key to a great trip is planning well and packing strategically. You want to make sure you're bringing the right items and thinking about what you will need and use on your trip, not what you might have a last-minute urge to wear.
With all of the traveling I've done, I have gotten pretty good at packing smart. Thanks to these travel essentials fromReplica Store and Amazon that I swear by. I want to make sure your travels go as smoothly as possible and save you from overpacking unnecessary items. I've rounded up the travel essentials that have changed the game for me.
