I’ve been thinking almost all day of travel’s downsides and I think I’ve hit on a solution.
(Things like missing my own bed or dealing with unfamiliar surroundings I really can’t do much about, I’ll just have to live with them.)
My solution is to create a ‘travel bag’ so I can use on my next trip. It’ll be the bag that will contain the essentials: moisturizer, lotion, deodorant, etc., phone and laptop chargers, adapters, batteries, memory card for my camera, cable and whatever else I tend to need when I travel. So next time, all I’ll have to do is pick up my travel bag and put it in my suitcase. Kind of like those little portable inner bags they’ve been promoting to women who change their bags, so they don’t forget anything.
What do you think?
Besides forgetting your essentials, what are some of your travel downsides?
I’m curious to know.

Great idea. I have a good friend who travels A LOT on her job. She does what you are suggesting.
Oh snap, my mom does that very same thing. Whenever we’re going to go somewhere, she just pulls out her handy “travel bags” she’s had prepared for ages. I thought it was SO nerdy, but… I have to admit, it saved me quite a bit…
It does save time. When I saw the ads, I used to think who does that? Now I see how practical it is.
You don’t have to think about it.
Thanks, Sandi. I don’t know why I’d never thought about it. Makes practical sense.
