As a motorcyclist I got to know an excellent british brand called Kriega. Their backpacks are EXCEPTIONALLY comfortable to wear, specially if you're using bulky motorcycle jackets - but if well set up, they fit well over casual clothes too. They have this organizer called "Kube", which I'm going to buy for this purpose (oganizing cables) and check out if they're up to the task. Also, Eagle Creek has some very lightweight stuff, but it's a pitty they're kinda expensive and only sold in "sets". Nice video, btw.
Your best attribute is your calm voice, that is what makes the review more enjoyable. Also the videographer does a fantastic job of bringing things into focus and out of focus back on forth to align with the commentary. Superb.
everyone should have the gear ties to keep cords from getting tangled... literally made my life so much easier and not just when it comes to traveling. they are so useful in everyday life as well
Thank you Robert!
Gosh you are so organised, you have got a new subscriber :)

I miss your videos, loved your style and you always shared valuable information and tips!
I recently found 2 pouches by a company called Monoprice. If you don't bring a lot of cables I suggest the mini universal electronic organizer. If you bring a lot of cables then I suggest the universal electronic organizer.
Excellent suggestions. I really like the clear zipper pouch the best. You can see at a quick glance what's missing or not. I also travel with an assortment of adapters for European outlets and the clear pouch makes it easy to see the little pieces. Love the twisty things! Must buy!
Very helpful. Thanks for sharing.
I like to use hair ties to keep my cords organized. It also comes in handy when you lose a billion hair ties, like me!
Very helpful tips, thanks
Very good tips,practical.You are easy to listen to.Thank you.
I just received the Skooba bag and the Gear Ties. I think they are great, thanks for the tip. I also purchased the Amazon Basics cable holder.
You rock Sonia love all your different types of video
thank you so much for these travel tips, im going to favourite this so i can refer to it next time i travel!
Do you have a video on outlet converters for different countries?
Appreciate you sharing this.
great video.... i watched it as i was packing up all my chargers. It helped a lot. Thanks!
Great tips, I'd never thought of combining everything into one zip bag. I usually just stuff my cables and chargers between layers of clothes.
Yes, I'm a stuffy packer!
I LOVE GearTies!! They keep the cords neat and organized, they cords don't get tangled, and I've found the cords last longer. Often times with the old way I'd wrap them up and tuck in the ends I'd wind up splitting the covering at the base. Not so with GearTies. Haven't had to replace a cord again.
Bonus, when your hair elastic breaks the 6inch GearTies work great for ponytails. I've used the 3inch ties to do a half tie back on my hair.
***** I bought mine from Amazon
Like the fact that you give several choices for each problem.
Tips are very handy. Where to buy would also be helpful. Have seen the gear ties but not the clear pouch. Thanks
There are links to buy the items she mentioned in the bottom of the video description
Well done Sonia !, you have a perfect video list. Thumbs up !!!!!
Could you do a video on comfortable but stylish outfits to wear on a plane or during a tour?
Great Job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great travel tips! Do you have travel tips for what to pack for going on a cruise?
Thanks for the reviews! As always, very helpful!
Gear Ties are awesome... They double as hair ties too! The 6 inch ones can do a quick up-do that doesn't pull and yank on your hair!
I'll have to try those ties. I've been using the Velcro option, which works ok except for when they get stuck to other stuff (the clear bag might help with that too, I'm still using the caveman approach). ;)
Those ties are very handy! I, recently, started using the Grid-it by Cocoon for my trips! You should check that out.
Hi! I got it in Amazon. The item name is: "Travel Smart by Conair Sundry Bag"
Very handy tips & equipment suggestions. I just made a trip to Amazon-!! LOL Thanks Sonia
Great Vids! You are so right...It's about an attitude and you've got it! You are a natural. Do you have a travel website or is it only the youtube vlog?
Good as ever!
clear is good with spare sunglass case put small cables in .
Great video Sonia!!! :)
Sonia, great video! Where did you acquire the sturdy rubber twist ties?
We recently found "The Travel Organizer Cube" from Air Canada. It works great for all our chargers and cords!
Hey Sonia, in my opinion the Skoobaa pouch has a very firm elastic bands so there is no need to use the Gear Ties in that case. I rather the clear pouch! (With the Gear Ties). Kind regards!
Just missing the intro knocks. Love your videos. You are so sweet and intelligent.
Since there's always a shortage of outlets especially when traveling with big groups such as a family I always use the back of the tv 9/10 times it had a USB plug it two so you can charge your phone/iPad
This tip is awesome, as usual! I usually pack my electronic chargers in a transparent Lock n Lock box. It's sturdy, solid, and waterproof. Thanks again for the awesome tips! :)
Sonia,
I've love if you would share your recommendations for Power Converters! Not adapters, but actually being able to convert the voltage and the amperage, allowing me to use my favorite hair dryer and flatiron.
love the blog very good info
Could you do a video on how to stay organised and the best way to make lists before packing
Power outlet is best kept in the carry-on. I use a VERY cheap one from Home Depot or Lowes - get a 2-prong version as a 1 to 3. If you have a 3-prong charger, get an isolation plug (3 prong to 2 prong). This way if you are in an airport waiting for the next plane and the outlet is full of other people's chargers, you can use your splitter and join in the charge brigade.
Just do not forget the splitter when you go catch the next flight.
Nice Review! wanna ask can your Belkin Adapter fit in skooba pouch? Thanks
Could I use one of those surge protectors and connect it to a one simple European converter. Will all my things blow up? :o
Hi! Question. Can you put the belkin adapter thingy in your carry-on luggage? Will the security be okay with that? Thank you! Love your videos ❤️
great video!! thank you for sharing!
btw, where can i purchase the clear pouch?
What was the travel pouch you used for the cords? What was the surge protector-cable charger?
Your videos are always well produced :)
I personally do it a bit different when I travel. I almost always bring my laptop. So I have this one pouch that has my laptop charger, a wireless mouse, and an external hard drive inside. It goes with my laptop. I have another pouch that has my lightning cable, a micro usb cable, my powerbank that can give about 2-3 full charges on my phone, and some earphones. So these generally go with my phone and ipod. So if I'm just going out somewhere, I just carry this pouch, and if I'm going to some cafe to work on stuff on my laptop, I take both pouches.
Thanks for the video. Have you ever tried Grid-it by Cocoon?
Have you tried a Grid-it? I've been curious about how well they work.
wow, so neat!
i am watching your videos ... as i am packing right now .. :D
This is such a good video! Thank you :D
Ok ok I've subscribed thanks the help I need it I'm a travel noob 😂 but I'll get there!!
Sonia, ¡genial el video! Thanks for the tips. I've been using the velcro things, but as you said they're not super effective. I also have a.. request? recommendation? for you: A long-term travel packing tips! As you may know, a lot of people travel for periods from 6 months to a year and packing can became hell when you have weight limits. Please help! Con mucho cariño, una caraqueña.
Cocoon Innovations Grid-it is a good one too.
The Tripp lite adaptor looks better than the Belkin one, as it has a cable going to the plug socket and doesn't weigh down on it.
Hey Sonia, I really enjoy your videos and was wondering if you could possibly address this question at some point, whether it be in a vlog or in a reply to this comment! Did you learn multiple languages as a child or did you learn most as an adult? Perhaps a vague timeline of when you learned each of your 5 languages would be amazing! Thank you so much!
Me too :)
Hello Sonia! Have you ever tried "grid it"? Is a wonderful alternative. Thank you for your videos :)
Linamaría Gallegos Mayorga Cocoon grid it? Are they any good?
To the point as usual
very helpful, i prefer that plastic pouch :)
Hi Sonia! LOOOOVE your video's. What type of camera do you use and how do you edit your video's? Thanks!
Do you have any recommendations for converters and adapters?
Can you do a video on what to pack on a 2 week trip to spain??
Donde puedo comprar estos peroductos ?
This was kinda like asmr l liked it
Can you do a vlog about international adapters and converters you like and dislike?
Your hair looks nice in this video... then again, you always look beautiful.
thankk uu
I use the velcro ties. I bought 4 rolls on Amazon for about $3.50. Each roll holds about 100 ties.
hi! :) are cable wire charger allowed in carry-on bag?
I wish i was that organized ... how do i begin ?
I use the Cocoon Grid It.
Where did you buy the clear pouch I can't find one that is as big as that one

Where did you get the big white charger thing
Or maybe what to expect on a week tour and what essentials you should carry while walking the streets? :)
I miss your videos🙁
Omg my name is Sonia! And my cousins last name is Gil!
Velcro strips and rubber bands works for me
❤️❤️❤️
where did u buy the clear pouch?

I would like to second someone else's idea on here - maybe have your video producer make a video on how she travels w her video gear. I know I know limited audience but maybe a "link in the description" video?? :)
Can u make a video on what to wear at the airport/plane please?
What camera are you using here?
I know you do a lot of video. Can you do a how to pack for run and gun DSLR video. I mean like you we all do like traveling. But then there are mics. and then camera and batteries. how would a person travel light. Do you have recommendations for solid packaging for travel DSLR video. ????
After 10 years, I am watching this
Sonia, you didn’t tap, tap the screen? haha Qué pasó? love your vids.
If you take your. Laptop where do you store it for safety?
Get a backpack with a padded laptop sleeve and use it as a carry on. Never put it in your check in. TSA might steal it
I love your video!!!! Soooo helpful, but a tip, you sound a little like a robot. Add more feeling, I know you have compassion, so go ahead and spruce it up😂!
Or you can be lucky like me and your phone, camera and e-reader all use the same cable! Only problem is if I need to charge more than one thing at a time... but when traveling I hope I'm not too busy using electronics. Except maybe the camera!
I am going on Vacation soon and I plan to show my parents thus video because they have soooooooo many charging thingys
I just dont understand you people. If you have a laptop with usb's you can charge simutaneaously as a minimum, your phone and your watch while charging the computer at night when sleeping. To transfer files from your camera to your computer, just remove the card, load it in the computer and save them, you dont need a cable for that. Etc. etc. etc.... I never travel with more than 2 or 3 cables and only because my camera doesnot charge if plugged to usb do I have to carry its charger ! Minimal weight and stuff is the rule, not more bags on bags !
imma buy dat geartie
packing...the ocd way

Commenting, the mean way
