Road Trip Must Haves

Expandable Luggage Set

I purchased this luggage back in November prior to traveling to Seattle. The quality is very good for the price. I especially love the mid-sized 24″ suitcase, especially for shorter travel. It’s the perfect size for a long weekend, allowing you to bring everything you need but not having to use a large suitcase! I packed all of my clothes for this 4-month road trip in the carry-on 20″ suitcase and the mid-sized 24″ suitcase. I wanted to travel light and they fit perfectly into my trunk!

Set of 8 Packing Cubes

These go hand in hand with my luggage. These packing cubes are a must-have to keep organized and neat. They fit neatly into your luggage and keep everything from T-shirts to leggings, to intimates organized and in their place! The only thing I would do differently is order two sets!

Dog Travel Bag

I have great luggage, why shouldn’t Mowgli? This was a smart purchase. It can hold plenty of food, treats, toys, shampoo, medication, and other miscellaneous items. The collapsable dishes are perfect for travel and it’s small enough to fit under the airline seat if you are traveling by air!

Car Seat Pet Booster

Mowgli loves this car seat. It’s so soft and fits snug in the passenger’s seat. It has a safety belt that connects to his harness keeping him safe in the seat. It disassembles for easy cleaning and has a waterproof backing to keep my car nice and clean in case of accidents!

Car Trunk Organizer

This organizer is very high quality, sturdy and rugged. I love that it has a lid so I can safely pack things on top of it as well. It’s expandable/collapsable to fit your needs. AND it has a hook to attach to your trunk so it doesn’t slide around. Well worth the money!

Travel Carrying Case for LCD Screens and Monitors

I am working full time as I travel and knew that I would not be able to work strictly from my laptop. I knew I wanted to bring my monitor but wanted to make sure it would arrive at every destination in one piece. This carrying case fits the bill. It wraps protectively around my monitor and has nice carrying straps for when I arrive to my next location.

Vintage Laptop Backpack for Women

I am obsessed with this backpack. Not only with the color, but also the quality and the vintage look to it. There is plenty of room for my laptop, journal, bible, pens, keyboard, and more! And LOOK how cute! And right now it’s 24% off!

Car Jump Starter

I feel much more comfortable knowing I have this jump starter in my car, and it can also charge my phone in a pinch!

Portable Air Compressor

I feel much more comfortable knowing I have this portable air compressor in my trunk as well. I’m doing most of the driving portions of my trip by myself and I want to make sure I have as many bases covered as possible when it comes to safety!

I purchased this one at Best Buy: Air Compressor

She’s Birdie–The Original Personal Safety Alarm for Women by Women

I have attached this Birdie to my back pack when hiking, and in my purse when traveling. The activate Birdie’s LOUD siren and flashing strobe-light to create a diversion and to help deter an attack. The alarm is as loud as a jet engine 100 feet overhead! Safety First!

Women’s Lightweight Jogger Hiking Pants

These hiking pants are perfect for hiking! They are high wasted, so fit nice and don’t fall down. I love that they are joggers to reduce the chance of dirt and creepy crawlers going up my legs. They are super lightweight, dry quickly and pack well. The zipper pockets are great for storing items I want quick access to, (like my reading glasses!). I have two pair, one in black, and one in dark grey!

RUPUMPACK Hydration Pack with 2L Water Bladder

This backpack is perfect for hiking. Just the right size for plenty of water, snacks, and extra clothing. Exterior pockets are great for keys, sunglasses, and phones.

Women’s Long Sleeve Casual Blouse

I love this blouse so much I have it in 3 colors! It’s lightweight, looks great on a zoom call, and is very packable!
