It’s no secret, I’ve docked a lot of travel miles in the last few years. Much like life, with many miles traveled comes much wisdom. And by wisdom, I mean knowing how to be prepared when it comes to knowing what to pack for adventure. Nothing can ruin an adventure like not having what you need when you need it, in the middle of nowhere. So I put together this little list of items I’ve picked up to facilitate my travels. Some were sent to me, others were purchased, but they all rocked when I needed them and I’ve relied on them since.

 

This post is sponsored by Epic Wipes, the massive wet wipe that offers a shower on the go and whom I’ve been endorsing for two years now and love. You can check out my last post about their rad brand here. I have added a few Amazon affiliate links at no cost to you as well. My opinions are my own.
