How to Choose the Right BatI’ve done quite a bit of traveling in the past year, and so it’s safe to say I’ve experienced enough blunders and road bumps to learn from travel mistakes — the biggest of which is packing wrong.

I’m generally a no-fuss travel packer. I like to keep my baggage to a minimum, and I honestly never understood how some people could travel to a place for a week and bring XL sized luggages… thule crossover backpack cheapI mean, what have you got in there? booq boa squeeze laptop backpackI’ve done it (use XL luggage, not bring a chair) but only because I had no choice, Japan was freezing cold and the winter wear is thick, so I needed the space! rei aconcagua backpack– but generally, for all my other travels, I prefer and try to travel “light”. I traveled around Europe twice, once for 2 weeks and another for a month, with nothing but a backpack — I survived. Now, whenever I pack my carry-on bag, I have a few essentials I need to keep in mind to keep myself as stress free as possible.

Lord knows blunders are about to happen, this way I can keep it to a minimum. You might find these useful, and if you do, you can thank me later. The Cabin Zero cabin sized bag, which I first used when I traveled to Cebu a few months back and have been using for weekends I spend elsewhere, is a no-fuss travel friendly bag especially designed for urban jetsetters, much like you and me. Apparently, it’s also the only bag in the market fit for an airline’s cabin standards, giving you a hassle-free travel of not needing to worry if it’ll fit standards or you’ll have to check it in. The best part is that it includes a built in luggage tracker, so if you ever lose your luggage, you can easily track its location — but let’s hope you’ll never have to use it, although it’s still a cool feature to have. Cabin Zero’s thick padded shoulder straps make it very comfortable to wear, despite how heavy it can be — it really makes a difference because traveling to Cebu, I could carry my bag fan but the backpack I used during my last eurotrip was not comfortable at all, Gab ended up having to carry my bag for me once in a while

, so you can imagine how unfortunate that was for both of us. Another key feature is the outer lining of the bag is waterproof polyester, so you don’t need to worry about accidental liquid spills/stains or terrible weather. Cabin Zero also comes with a 10 year warranty; this is easily upgradable to 25 years if you ‘like’ them on Facebook — which I’ve done, of course!

As a blogger and aspiring vlogger, my gadgets are not only an essential; they’re (expensive) investments that need to be taken care of. I’ll admit, I’ve throw in my cameras in my bag without really caring and they’ve come out of it alive, albeit often a little scratched up. Yes, I have regrets with how I handle my things but all that is about to change.

It includes a parting strip to separate your gadgets and accessories easily and a mesh pocket to store and organize your USBs, audio cables, etc. I use this pouch everyday to store my two cameras, my 1 TB hard drive, some SD cards and USBs.

These simple little babies are useful for a number of things: Storing your 100ml liquids which most airports/airlines require.

My Klean Kanteen Bottle I use this everyday, everywhere, be it at home, at French class or just going out. That’s how much of an essential it is to me. I get the most out of it when traveling because not only is it important to stay hydrated, I get to save on cash by filling it up with water as I go along. I brought this with me to my Eurotrip and I was able to save on so much cash instead of buying water at stores and restaurants — which are very pricey, mind you! Some places will charge you around Php 200 for a bottle of water. My favorite feature is that it’s insulated, which means it can keep my drinks cold for about 12 hours — it’s amazing. If you’re wondering where I got it, I’ve seen this product available in True Value but I got mine from Klean Kanteen PH. Now that I’ve shared with you my must-have carry on essentials, do you have any that didn’t make it to my list?
