Travel Carry-On Essentials


Admittedly I'm one who always over packs for trips so we always have checked luggage even if it's one suitcase shared between K and I. Clothing and shoes go into the checked suitcase and I pack all my valuables and smaller travel essentials in hand luggage including a change of clothes in case our checked bag somehow doesn't arrive on the same flight.

I'm excited that our long awaited trip to Boston is finally upon us and we'll be boarding the plane shortly to enjoy the long weekend exploring a new city. With that being said, these are my carry-on essentials packed and ready to go.


Travel Blanket & Neck Pillow  / Currently Reading (audible)  /  Earbuds
Sunglasses  /  Small Toiletry Bag  /  Mini Hand Sanitizers
Portable phone charger  /  Travel Wet Ones  /  Camera  /  Snacks


Wishing everyone a fun and relaxing long weekend (for those in the US)

I can't wait to share the details of our Boston adventures!

  2. I used to bring a change of clothes, now I only do that when I'm going places where clothes will not be readily available. Sick to death of heavy carry ons LOL.

    Have a fabulous trip!!!

  8. Fabulous roundup, have an amazing trip! Can't wait to hear how you like the northeast, and sending some warmth up there with you. Our portable charger was a lifesaver on our trip to San Fran last week, and you already know I carry hand sanitizer and wipes everywhere <3

  14. Your carry on looks a lot like mine. For long flights I also include a small face wash, moisturizer, and toothbrush/toothpaste because their nothing worse than feeling gross. I learned the hard way on the lack of a change of clothes last year... three days in the same clothes was THE WORST.
